The centrality of the journal is the sustainable developments of the automotive industry and road transport management systems, though research on other transport modes such as aviation and shipping will contribute to our understanding of the future of sustainable mobility as a whole. To address the economic, environmental and societal concerns of the development the transportation industry, the journal will take a holistic approach to a better understanding of the technologies that underlie the advancement of low-carbon vehicles, market demands for such vehicles, and institutional change and corporate sustainability, which determine the strategies of those businesses involved.
