伴随我国汽车产业国际化的不断深入，外向型业务活动逐年激增，许多汽车企业的涉外工作对从业员工的英语能力都有了更高要求。因此，具备过硬的专业技术能力再加上较高的英语应用水平，对毕业生来讲无疑是在日益激烈的竞争环境中占据了优势，对学生的个人收益和自身发展也起了积极的推动作用。这类岗位的典型工作任务包括：涉外汽车营销服务、汽车检测与维修工作中外文资料的运用、日常外文实务文档的撰写等。
《汽车实用英语》教材正是根据上述需求，参考教育部*发布的《高等职业学校专业教学标准（试行）》，以交通行业相关职业资格标准和中国汽车工程学会汽车诊断工程师专业技术资格认证标准为依据，并参照有关企业的*培训能力标准而编写的。本教材对学生从事汽车行业所需的职业外语应用能力着力进行符合工作实际的培养，并对其职业素养进行积极渗透和熏陶，起到良好而符合工作岗位要求的支撑和促进作用。
