Have you seen carsized.com?
I got fed up with trying to guess car sizes from useless dealer sites, so I spent way too much time building a visualizer.
You can throw two cars on top of each other to see the real size difference, or check a truck's turning radius to see if you'll need to do a 5-point turn just to turn around in your driveway. Visualization stuff you can't tell from a spec sheet.
I went a little to deep and ended up with specs for over 70k vehicles. But I used it to prove to myself a rivian won't fit in my garage, so I'm calling it a win.
Anyway, hope you enjoy my side project as much as i did making it. Let me know what you think or if there are any big improvements I can make.

PHEV vehicles seem incorrect. The Toyota Rav4 Prime has a range given as 42 miles, which is true for electric only, but it also has between 400-500 miles of gas range.
After playing around a bit, all the make/model/year drop downs are empty and I can't get them to work again.

Thanks for the feedback. I've fixed both issues. The RAV4 Prime model that you selected might be cached for a while though, but if you select a different RAV4 Prime trim, it should show the correct range.
This is something I could be interested in but looks like the "Request API Access" link does not work.
