Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
With the advantages of zero emissions and no dependence on oil resources, electric vehicles have been unanimously favored by the public, and are the main direction of the future development of the automobile industry. As the demands of people on the move are increasingly enhanced, the requirements for vehicle quality and function are also increasing. The study of vehicle control and drive systems has long been an important method for achieving this goal. Vehicle automation offers new opportunities for designing vehicle control systems by applying the fusion of diverse information channels and incorporating intelligent and adaptive decision-making algorithms in the control logic. In comparison with conventional vehicle powertrains, electric drive systems require higher integration, higher speed, and higher power density. Therefore, innovations regarding the design, control, and optimization of electric drive systems, as well as their core components such as motors and control, have become a hot topic in the automotive field.
Aimed at spreading the latest research in the field widely, we are pleased to announce a Special Issue on "Vehicle Control and Drive Systems for Electric Vehicles". This Special Issue will bring together original and high-quality articles through an international standard peer-review process on the following main topics (but not limited to only these):
- Control and automation systems in automobiles.
- Specific problems of designing vehicle dynamics control systems for electric vehicles.
- Specific problems of vehicle dynamics.
- Active and passive vehicle safety.
- Energy efficiency and rational use of energy in electric vehicles.
- Design and development of drive systems for electric vehicles.
- Design, control, and optimization of in-wheel motors.
- Control and calibration of powertrains.
- Distributed generation and renewable energy systems.
- Energy-efficient motor drives and controllers.

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. World Electric Vehicle Journal 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 1400 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.
