Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Turbocharging and boosting are key technologies in the continued drive for improved internal combustion engine efficiency with reduced emissions. For more than a decade, engine boosting has seen widespread adoption by passenger and heavy goods vehicle powertrains in order to increase the specific power and enable the downsizing megatrend. Looking forward, however, many challenges still remain, as the regulation requirements become stricter, and the demand for low-carbon powertrains increases. The growing expectations of vehicle performance, including an excellent transient response with high boost levels, have converged with the demand for higher levels of EGR and increased Millerization. Thus, the demands on the boosting system have never been more challenging. However, an exciting new trend to electrify the boosting system has also seen a dramatic rise and opens the door to a paradigm shift in the ability of the boosting system to deliver both performance and fuel efficiency. Noting all these exciting developments, it has never been more pertinent to launch a Special Issue that seeks to capture the latest research in turbocharging and boosting.

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.
