The invention relates to a multipoint gesture recognition method of a vehicular touch screen terminal. The multipoint gesture recognition method of the vehicular touch screen terminal comprises the following steps: monitoring a touch screen, and acquiring touch event information from the touch screen terminal when a touch event occurs; converting the touch event information into a predefined gesture information through a gesture driving algorithm; sending the gesture information to a target application program through a predefined communication protocol; and converting the gesture information into gesture information recognized by the application program, through the target application program, and responding the gesture information through the application program, and executing corresponding operations. By utilizing the multipoint gesture recognition method of the vehicular touch screen terminal, a vehicular operating system can support the multipoint gesture control of the multipoint touch screen terminal through a defined communication protocol.
