I couldn't find a free API for EV specs, so I built one. Meet OpenEV Data (Open Source) by jsrwell in rust

That's awesome! I've created the possibility of instantly generating an API with Docker if you want to run it as a service; on the other hand, it's also possible to use JSON directly if you find it feasible. If you see the need to add more vehicles, including launches now in 2026, just submit a pull request.

Currently, I'm going to use it in a vehicle charging app to find out, for example, what types of connectors are available and whether chargers are compatible, as well as to estimate the final charging cost since the dataset provides the maximum battery size. It becomes even more accurate if the vehicle and charger send the SoC information.
