Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue aims to publish high-quality complete review papers on automotive engineering and transportation engineering. The Special Issue will highlight a diverse set of topics related to vehicles (motorcycles, cars, buses, trucks, trains, trams, UAVs, drones, etc.) and transportation with regards to the design, modelling and simulation, manufacture, testing, operation and modification of those vehicles and their engineering systems.
The scope of this Special Issue includes, but is not limited to, the following topics:
- Vehicle components and subsystems;
- Vehicle and driveline dynamics;
- Vehicle electrical systems;
- Internal combustion engines;
- Fuel and energy system;
- Simulation and modelling;
- Vehicle safety (automotive safety);
- Terra mechanics including the study of tires and roads;
- Vehicle materials;
- Intelligent and autonomous driving/control;
- Vehicle fault diagnostics/diagnosis;
- Transport electrification;
- Intelligent transportation systems;
- V2X communication;
- Interaction between vehicles and the environment;
- Driver assistance.
Review papers should provide syntheses of ideas and have the potential to challenge the existing paradigms and create new frameworks that will advance our understanding of all aspects of automotive engineering and transportation engineering.
Review manuscripts should comprise the front matter, literature review sections, and the back matter. You may use the template file to prepare the front and back matter of your review manuscript; it is not necessary to follow the remaining structure. Structured reviews and meta-analyses should use the same structure as research articles, and ensure that they conform to the PRISMA guidelines.

Manuscript Submission Information
Manuscripts should be submitted online at www.mdpi.com by registering and logging in to this website. Once you are registered, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline. All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a single-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page. Vehicles is an international peer-reviewed open access quarterly journal published by MDPI.
Please visit the Instructions for Authors page before submitting a manuscript. The Article Processing Charge (APC) for publication in this open access journal is 1600 CHF (Swiss Francs). Submitted papers should be well formatted and use good English. Authors may use MDPI's English editing service prior to publication or during author revisions.
