NCAP Model Names by Make and Year (NHTSA)

nhtsa/safety-rating-models

The model names NHTSA's New Car Assessment Program (NCAP) has safety-ratings records for, given a make and model year, for example the twelve 2015 Honda models. NCAP names are exact and often more specific than a common model name (F-150 (SUPER CREW) GAS, MUSTANG MACH-E BEV), and the NCAP variants tool needs the exact name. Every VehicleId in this list is 0, a placeholder: get the real ids from the NCAP variants tool. An unknown make or a year with no data returns an empty list, not an error. Source: NHTSA, a US federal agency whose data is in the public domain. Not an official NHTSA product.

// 1. search: find the tool
omnial_search({ query: "what you need" })

// 2. inspect: price and input schema
omnial_inspect({ tool: "nhtsa/safety-rating-models" })

// 3. learn: read the usage guide at runtime
omnial_learn({ tool: "nhtsa/safety-rating-models" })

// 4. run: price the exact call first, then run it
omnial_execute({ tool: "nhtsa/safety-rating-models", input: { /* see input_schema */ }, dry_run: true })
omnial_execute({ tool: "nhtsa/safety-rating-models", input: { /* ... */ } })

// 5. settle: the call is charged when it finishes, nothing to do
