The body style of the model as defined by the number of doors and roof treatment.

Materials used in the vehicle's body construction.

Available exterior colors for the model as specified by the manufacturer.

Available interior colors for the model as specified by the manufacturer.

Number of doors for passengers. Depending on the body style, the doors can be two, four, etc.

Number of seats inclduing the driver and passenger ones. Depending on the model, the seats can be five, six, seven or other.

The distance from the frontmost to the rearmost point of the electric vehicle.

The width of the vehicle with unfolded mirrors included.

The distance from the ground to the top of the electric car.

The distance between the centers of the front and rear axle.

The distance between the centers (centerline) of the two wheels on the front axle.

The distance between the centers (centerline) of the two wheels on the rear axle.

The distance from the foremost point of the vehicle to the middle of the front axle. In other words, this is the length that extends to the front of the wheelbase. Combined with the rear overhang and the wheelbase, this gives the total length of the vehicle.

The distance from the middle of the rear axle to the rearmost point of the vehicle. In other words, this is the length that extends to the rear of the wheelbase. Combined with the front overhang and the wheelbase, this gives the total length of the vehicle.

The approach angle designates the widest angle at which the vehicle can approach a ramp without hitting it with its front. This angle is measured from the front tire at ground to whichever element from the front of the vehicle fails to clear first.

The departure angle designates the widest angle at which the vehicle can leave a ramp without hitting it with its rear. This angle is measured from the rear tire at ground to whichever elements from the rear of the vehicle fails to clear first.

The available space for cargo in the main trunk, excluding the additional available space from folding one or two rear seat rows.

The maximum available space for cargo in the main trunk, including the additional available space from folding one or two rear seat rows.

Curb weight (a.k.a. kerb weight) is the EV mass with standard equipment, liquids (oils and fuel at nominal tank capacity) but without cargo and passengers. In some EU countries, the curb weight also includes the weight of a 75 kg (165 lb) driver.

The maximum permissible weight supported by the rear axle of the vehicle.

The roof load refers to the carrying capacity of the roof rails on a vehicle, i.e. how much weight you can load on the roof rack, including the rack own weight.

In the context of automobiles, the payload is the summary of the weights of passengers, cargo, accessories, equipment.

GVWR stands for gross vehicle weight rating and is also known as gross vehicle mass (GVM). It describes the maximum operating weight of the electric car including the curb weight and payload (accessories, equipment, driver, passengers and cargo).

The braked towing capacity designates the maximum weight the vehicle can tow when the trailer has its own braking system. This enables a higher towing capacity since the vehicle does not handle the entire stopping force on its own.

The drag coefficient or coefficient of drag is related to the car's aerodynamics as it denotes the resistance to the air of the front surface of the vehicle when it is in movement. The lower the coefficient, the better aerodynamics the model has. Ultimately, this allows for higher speeds and improved power efficiency.

Additional details related to the electric car's body.

The model name of the electric motor.

The electric motor category according to the type of motor commutation. Most electric motors operate on magnetism and can be powered by direct current (DC) or alternating current (AC) sources. Depending on the type of commutation, electric motors are either self-commutated (AC and DC, mechanical or electronic) and externally commutated (AC only, asynchronous or synchronous).

Information about the electric notor's location. The two most common locations are the front and rear of the electric car.

The power produced by the electric motor depends proportionally on the motor's rotational speed.

The electric motor's rotational speed measured in RPM when the motor achieves its maximum power.

Torque is the driving force of an electric motor and is the rotational equivalent of a linear force. A typical feature of electric cars is that they get full torque from zero speed.

Information about the velocity (rotational speed in RPM) at which the electric motor achieves its maximum torque. The velocity can have an exact value or a range at which the torque is in its peak.

Very often manufacturers provide information only about the total system power without detailing the power output of each individual electric motor in the system. In most cases, it is the sum of the power output of all electric motors on the vehicle.

In a similar fashion to the total system power, the total system torque is frequently listed as the only indicator of the vehicle's torque. In most cases, it is the sum of the torque of all electric motors on the vehicle.

The top speed that the vehicle can achieve as specified by the manufacturer.

The time in seconds the electric car needs to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h.

Information about the design type of the steering mechanism of the electric car.

Information about the type of power steering used in this model.

Often referred to as turning diameter or turning radius (multiplied by two), this is the smallest diameter that the outside wheels of the vehicle describe when it is turning on full lock.

Information about the type of transmission used by the vehicle. Generally, EVs are equipped with one-speed automatic units.

Information about the type of drivetrain (the system that delivers power to the driving wheels).

The axle ratio a.k.a. final drive ratio of the electric motor. It shows the number of revolutions of the driveshaft needed to spin the axle one complete turn.

Information about the main components of the front suspension of the electric vehicle.

Information about the main components of the rear suspension of the electric vehicle.

Information about the type of brakes used on the front wheels.

Information about the type of brakes used on the rear wheels.

Information about the battery capacity as specified by the manufacturer in kWh without explicit clarification whether it is gross or net capacity.

Ah is short for amp‑hour, a measure of how much electric charge a battery can store. It shows how many amps the battery can supply continuously for one hour before emptying. While Ah reflects charge capacity, it doesn't represent total energy. For evaluating an EV's real battery capacity and driving range, kWh is the meaningful metric.

The type of rechargeable battery depending on its composition.

The specific cathode materials determine the battery's energy density, driving range, safety, and cost.

The EV battery cell nominal voltage depends on the cell chemistry. For example, NCM batteries typically have 3.5-3.7V, while LFP batteries have around 3.2V

The fully charged voltage (upper cutoff) of 4.2V is the absolute maximum voltage allowed for a single NMC cell during charging. It represents a 100% State of Charge (SoC). Exceeding it, will damage the cell.

The EV battery cell cutoff voltage is the minimum voltage a cell should maintain when fully discharged. Dropping below this level will damage the cell.

The battery voltage denotes the difference in electric potential between the positive and negative electrodes of the pack. The higher difference in potential results in a higher voltage.

Total weight of the battery pack including not only the cells but also the shield, wiring, etc.

Information about the position of the battery pack in the electric vehicle.
