“SEMA is where innovation meets influence, and for SPARQ, we’re honored to be a part of the conversation with exciting plans to introduce new products to SPARQ’s ecosystem,” said SPARQ Co-founder Daniel Nieh. “As a startup pushing the boundaries of automotive technology, exhibiting at SEMA allows us to connect directly with the community that’s shaping the future of the industry—builders, technicians, brands, and enthusiasts alike. It’s not just about showcasing what SPARQ can do; it’s about listening, collaborating, and helping redefine what’s possible.”

Highlighting the 2025 SEMA Show will be participation from a strong lineup of Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM), including Ford Performance, Honda Racing Corporation USA (HRC), MOPAR/Stellantis, Nissan, and Toyota.

Innovation across the industry is surging, fueled by a wave of new product launches debuting at the Show. The New Products Showcase will highlight more than 2,000 cutting-edge entries spanning 15 product categories. The SEMA FutureTech Studio will return as another innovation center, showcasing new technologies shaping the marketplace. From internal combustion engines to EVs, hydrogen, hybrids, and synthetic fuels, a wide range of propulsion technologies is powering one of the most dynamic product development cycles the industry has ever seen.

“SEMA represents the heart of the automotive aftermarket industry which aligns perfectly with our mission at Revv,” said Adi Bathla, CEO and Co-founder of Revv. “SEMA continues to be the epicenter of automotive innovation, and we’re constantly pushing boundaries.”

The SEMA Show is maxing out the campus with a diverse and strategic brand mix and exceptional category breadth that reflects the full scope of the industry. The addition of the new International Pavilion reinforces the SEMA Show’s role as a hub for the global automotive marketplace.

Long considered a bucket list item for many car lovers, the Show will open its doors to automotive enthusiasts on Friday, Nov. 7, for SEMA Show Friday – Open to the Public, giving car culture fans a special opportunity to peek behind the curtain of the automotive aftermarket. It’s a powerful way to connect the passion of the enthusiast community with the business of innovation.
