Airui Translation

Automotive Technical Translation

As the automotive industry evolves toward electrification, intelligence, and globalization, automakers, component suppliers, and software providers increasingly face the need to communicate across borders. In this context, accurate, professional, and well-localized technical translation becomes key—not only to ensure comprehension, but also to secure certifications, win customer trust, and support global deployment.

At Airui Translation, we offer full-spectrum language support across the automotive value chain—from R&D and engineering to manufacturing, compliance, and after-sales.


Common Automotive Documents We Translate

  • Technical specifications for vehicles and components

  • ECU/system development docs (ADAS, HVAC, infotainment, etc.)

  • Automotive software documentation (e.g., AUTOSAR, CAN, OTA updates)

  • Production process descriptions, assembly instructions, BOMs

  • Diagnostic protocols (OBD, UDS, DTC codes)

  • Maintenance manuals, service bulletins, repair guides

  • Certification and compliance documentation (ECE, ISO 26262, IATF 16949)


Why Automotive Technical Translation Demands Specialization

  • Highly technical, terminology-intensive
    Terms like torque, CAN bus, BMS, functional safety, and fault isolation must be used with absolute consistency and accuracy—no guesswork, no over-simplification.

  • Logic-driven documentation
    Documents are often structured around system models (e.g., V-model), signal flows, control logic, or diagnostic procedures. The translation must preserve these logical relationships.

  • Strict formatting and data integrity
    Many documents include diagrams, codes, tables, engineering units, and cross-references. We support delivery in Word, Excel, PDF, XML, InDesign, and other structured formats.

  • Certification-ready language
    Materials used for homologation or regulatory filings must align with official standards, norms, and terminology—not just fluent translation.


Our Workflow & Capabilities

  • Translators with backgrounds in automotive engineering, electronics, and control systems

  • Industry-specific terminology databases and translation memory (TM) systems

  • Multilingual capabilities: CN–EN, CN–DE, CN–FR, CN–JA, CN–ES, etc.

  • File-ready formatting with auto-generated tables, figures, numbering, and tags

  • Certified translations with stamps, declarations, and confidentiality agreements

  • Support for internal reviews by R&D, legal, or quality assurance teams


Pricing & Quotation Overview

Translation quotes are based on:

FactorDescription
Language pairsCommon: CN–EN, EN–CN, CN–DE, etc.
