The invention relates to a novel medium manganese steel casting powder for an automobile and application of the novel medium manganese steel casting powder and belongs to the technical field of continuous casting of iron and steel. The casting powder comprises, by mass, CaO 29%-37%, Al2O3 16%-25%, SiO2 11%-15%, MgO 2%-7%, Na2O 10%-14%, Li2O 1%-5%, MnO 1%-7% and F- 9%-13%. The melting point of the casting powder is 1,100-1,200 DEG C; at 1,300 DEG C, the viscosity of the casting powder is 0.10-0.30 Pa*s, and the crystallizing rate is 40%-70%; the heat flow is 1.1-1.6 MW / m<2> in the continuous casting process. The designed casting powder can be well used in the medium manganese steel continuous casting process for the automobile with the mass percentage of Mn being 3.0%-15.0%.
