The museum's total exhibition area covers 1.17 hectares. The German-designed museum looks like overlapped books, a metaphor for learning.

The exhibition space is composed of five pavilions dedicated respectively to history; technology; antique cars; famous brands and changing auto-themed exhibits. The history hall is located on the first floor and depicts significant events in the development of automobiles. The technology pavilion focuses on eight themes-manufacturing; conformation; design; materials; safety; comfort; electronic features and energy. Here visitors can experience the artificial intelligence in automobiles through interactive participation. The antique cars pavilion is on the second floor and displays forty cars manufactured in the U.S.A. and Europe between 1902 and 1977. The bulk of the cars are provided by America's Blackhawk Auto Museum and range from the aristocratic Rolls-Royce to the simple and practical Model-T Ford. The famous brands hall is located on the third floor and emphasizes the vast number of auto brands that have surfaced in the last hundred years. The fifth pavilion is dedicated to showcasing exhibits of a temporary nature.

The museum has over seventy classic vehicles on display representing twenty different brands that have had a significant impact in auto history. Brands range from the Rolls-Royce to such leading national brands as Ford, Citroen, Fiat, Volkswagen and Toyota. Even China's first generation car the Red Flag CA72, first made in 1958, is on display.

If you are a car fancier and are interested in auto history, this museum will be a feast for your eyes.
