Mobility apps and services use Smartcar’s API to manage EV charging, verify vehicle mileage, track fleets, and more. Our API platform allows vehicle owners to log in with their Rivian account and connect their car to your app in just a few clicks.

What is Smartcar?

Smartcar enables developers to integrate their apps and services with Rivian vehicles. Easily retrieve data and trigger actions with our simple and secure API for Rivian vehicles. Rivian API endpoints enable you to manage charging, track location, verify mileage, and much more.

The best way to build apps for Rivian vehicles

Our RESTful API for Rivian is fast, reliable, and easy to use with every tech stack. No matter which framework your mobile or web app is built in, our documentation and SDKs support every major language.

const smartcar = require('smartcar');

// Get all vehicles associated with this access token
const {vehicles} = await smartcar.getVehicles("<access-token>");

// Construct a new vehicle instance using the first vehicle's id
const vehicle = new smartcar.Vehicle(vehicles[0], "<access-token>");

// Fetch the vehicle's location
const location = await vehicle.location();

// Example http response from Smartcar
{
  "latitude": 37.4292,
  "longitude": 122.1381
}
