Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Electric vehicles (EVs) are becoming more and more attractive and competitive for road transportation, in response to global warming and increasingly serious environmental pollution. All related technologies of EVs, such as motor driving and battery charging, have attracted extensive attention in both industrial and academic fields. It is well-acknowledged that the main barriers for further development and popularity of EVs are two-fold: limited battery capacity and long charging duration.
A novel idea for designing the electric system of EVs has come up due to the concept of electric-drive-reconstructed onboard charger (EDROC). Under the concept, the high-power drivetrain of an EV can perform functions of both driving and charging, and the charging power is only limited by the drivetrain rating. In this way, the needs of additional onboard module for slow charging and expensive off-board infrastructure for fast charging are eliminated, almost without impacts on the cost, the weight and the volume of EV.
It is clear that advances in EDROC will contribute to the development of EVs. Thus, this Special Issue invites original papers exploring the latest technologies, emerging topologies and effective control strategies for EDROCs. Authors are also encouraged to submit review papers to summarize the state-of-the-art advances in the field and to provide valuable guidance for future research directions.

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. 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.
