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

What is Smartcar?

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

The best way to build apps for Tesla vehicles

Our RESTful APIs for Tesla are 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
}
