Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The rapid electrification of transportation represents not merely an evolution in vehicular technology but a profound transformation of the broader energy ecosystem. Electric vehicles (EVs) are complex cyber-physical systems where high-fidelity modeling, sophisticated dynamic analysis, and robust hierarchical control strategies are paramount. These imperatives extend beyond the vehicle itself to encompass charging infrastructure, bidirectional energy exchange (V2G/G2V), and the large-scale, systemic impact of EV fleets on power grid stability, planning, and economics. Advances in these interconnected domains—spanning battery electrochemistry, traction drive performance, power electronics reliability, and intelligent grid interaction—are critical to achieving superior system efficiency, safety, reliability, and sustainability. This Special Issue aims to consolidate cutting-edge research that bridges theoretical innovation with practical implementation, providing a comprehensive resource for engineers and researchers shaping the future of transportation and energy.

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 250 words) can be sent to the Editorial Office for assessment.
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. Machines is an international peer-reviewed open access monthly 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 2400 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.
