// FAQ

Common questions.

How many specification fields does Carstat API provide?

Carstat API returns 250+ engineering specification fields per vehicle configuration, covering dimensions, drivetrain, performance, EV systems, battery, charging connectors, suspension, brakes, towing capacity, and more.

What vehicle makes and models are covered?

Carstat covers thousands of makes, models, and engine configurations spanning multiple decades of global vehicle production across US, European, and Asian markets.

Does the API include electric vehicle specs?

Yes. The API includes comprehensive EV data: battery capacity, chemistry, voltage, electric range (WLTP/EPA), energy consumption, charging port locations, connector types (CCS1, CCS2, CHAdeMO, NACS, Type 1/2), and electric motor specifications.

How do I look up specs for a specific vehicle?

Browse by year, make, model, and modification to get a modification_id, then fetch the full spec sheet. Or search by VIN at /v1/specs/vin/:vin to go directly from a VIN to matching specifications.
