Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are delighted to invite you to contribute to a Special Issue on "Predictive Powertrain Control for Hybrid and Electric Vehicles". This Special Issue seeks to highlight cutting-edge research and development in the field of powertrain control, focusing on the optimization and management of electric and hybrid electric vehicles.

As the automotive industry continues its transition towards electrification, the importance of efficient and predictive powertrain control cannot be overstated. This Special Issue aims to bring together innovative research that addresses the challenges and opportunities in this dynamic field.

The objective of this Special Issue is to foster a comprehensive understanding of predictive powertrain control strategies that can enhance the performance, efficiency, and sustainability of hybrid and electric vehicles. We welcome contributions that explore practical applications and demonstrations, innovative predictive control algorithms, and advanced management techniques, leveraging advancements in communication, intelligence, and autonomous driving to push the boundaries of current technology.

Your expertise and research in this field would be a valuable addition to this Special Issue. We are confident that this Special Issue will serve as a valuable resource for researchers, practitioners, and policymakers interested in the future of automotive technology. We look forward to receiving valuable contributions, which will be instrumental in shaping the future of electrified vehicles, benefiting both industry and academia.
