《國際汽車技術雜志》以出版和傳播汽車技術、科學和工程各領域的原始研究為目標。因此，它促進了世界不同地區的研究人員之間以及強調該領域基礎和應用的不同方面的研究人員之間的思想交流。與物理、化學、力學、工程設計和材料科學的交叉路口一樣，汽車技術由于最近的技術進步正在經歷相當大的發展。期刊通過提供一種國際傳播媒介，鼓勵了這一增長，涵蓋了熱工程、流量分析、結構分析、模態分析、控制、車載電子、機電一體化、機電工程、優化設計方法、ITS和回收利用等各個領域。興趣從基礎科學延伸到分析、實驗和數值研究的技術應用。重點放在對該領域的研究工作者和工程師似乎具有永久性興趣的貢獻上。如果在該雜志主要關注的領域進一步深入了解，可以發表汽車技術、科學和工程創新學科的主要興趣論文。僅僅是對既定原則和程序的說明的論文，即使可能包含新的數值或實驗數據，通常也不會發表。在現有領域取得突出進展或新領域發展到確定階段時，編輯將審議特別審查文章。沒有規定供款的篇幅限制，但只發表簡明的論文。根據技術優點，考慮簡要條款。歡迎討論以前發表的論文。

THE INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY has as its objective the publication and dissemination of original research in all fields of AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY, SCIENCE and ENGINEERING. It fosters thus the exchange of ideas among researchers in different parts of the world and also among researchers who emphasize different aspects of the foundations and applications of the field.Standing as it does at the cross-roads of Physics, Chemistry, Mechanics, Engineering Design and Materials Sciences, AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY is experiencing considerable growth as a result of recent technological advances. The Journal, by providing an international medium of communication, is encouraging this growth and is encompassing all aspects of the field from thermal engineering, flow analysis, structural analysis, modal analysis, control, vehicular electronics, mechatronics, electro-mechanical engineering, optimum design methods, ITS, and recycling. Interest extends from the basic science to technology applications with analytical, experimental and numerical studies.The emphasis is placed on contributions that appear to be of permanent interest to research workers and engineers in the field. If furthering knowledge in the area of principal concern of the Journal, papers of primary interest to the innovative disciplines of AUTOMOTIVE TECHNOLOGY, SCIENCE and ENGINEERING may be published. Papers that are merely illustrations of established principles and procedures, even though possibly containing new numerical or experimental data, will generally not be published.When outstanding advances are made in existing areas or when new areas have been developed to a definitive stage, special review articles will be considered by the editors.No length limitations for contributions are set, but only concisely written papers are published. Brief articles are considered on the basis of technical merit. Discussions of previously published papers are welcome.
