  Smartcar is a connected vehicle platform that provides a standardized REST
  API for accessing vehicle data and sending commands to connected cars. The
  API enables developers to retrieve battery levels, odometer readings,
  location, lock/unlock doors, start/stop charging, and access vehicle
  attributes across multiple vehicle brands through a single integration.
  Smartcar supports OAuth 2.0 authorization and covers EVs and ICE vehicles
  from dozens of OEMs including Tesla, Ford, BMW, Honda, and more.
