The number of participants increased, even though it was postponed twice in 1992–1993 and 1997–1999 due to the government tight money policy and Asian Financial Crisis.

By the year of 2000, PT Dyandra Promosindo had been involved as the exhibition organizer handling the event which name had been changed into Gaikindo Auto Expo.

As a result, Gaikindo Auto Expo was changed into the 14th Indonesia International Motor Show, held from 21 to 30 July 2006.

[14] The 28th Indonesia International Motor Show was planned to be held from 9 to 19 April 2020, but was suspended indefinitely due to COVID-19 pandemic.

[19] In May 2020, the organizers announced that the show would be cancelled due to an uncertain future ending of the pandemic in Indonesia; instead, they would focus on the 2021 event.

[20] Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the 2021 edition of Indonesia International Motor Show was split into two events: IIMS Virtual, which was held virtually on its official website, and IIMS Hybrid, which was held both in the exhibition center (in compliance with strict health protocols) and on its official website.

[22] Responding to the COVID-19 measurements, then-Indonesian President, Joko Widodo held the inauguration of the show's opening ceremonies in a livestream filmed at the Merdeka Palace in Central Jakarta.

[24] The 29th Indonesia International Motor Show (organized as IIMS Hybrid) was planned to be held from 17 to 27 February 2022,[28] but on 7 February 2022, it was pushed back to 31 March to 10 April 2022 due to Jakarta's Level 3 Community Activities Restrictions Enforcement as the Omicron variant cases rose during the COVID-19 pandemic.

[29][30] Chinese automaker Chery also joined this exhibition to mark their re-entry to the Indonesian automotive market after a 6-year absence.

[31] The 30th Indonesia International Motor Show (organized as IIMS BOOST., stands for Bringing Opportunity for Otomotive Society Together) was held from 16 to 26 February 2023.
