Data sources · v1 · 2026-09-05

Every number on this site has a source. Here's where it lives.

China-market inventory facts come only from preserved supplier WeChat spreadsheets, images and messages. UAE infrastructure numbers come from DEWA, RTA, and the Ministry of Energy & Infrastructure. Customer-facing AED vehicle quotes come from our verified sourcing workflow. Public car facts and quotes are exposed as JSON, CSV, and an MCP manifest; procurement inputs and supplier links remain internal. Cite the public data freely.

01 · The three pools every number on this site comes from

China supply · preserved supplier records

Supplier spreadsheets, images and messages are preserved at original quality, indexed by message ID and SHA-256, deduplicated, and normalised into the sale catalogue. External marketplaces cannot provide model, trim, stock, configuration or price facts; only an exact-model fallback image is permitted when the archive has no suitable image.

UAE infrastructure · DEWA · RTA · MoEI

Charging-point counts, federal 2030 targets, customs duty rates, RTA registration fees, GSO homologation standards — all from DEWA Green Charger public maps, RTA fee schedules, and the UAE Ministry of Energy & Infrastructure 'Green Mobility 2030' strategy. Quoted inline in every post with the source attribution intact.

Customer AED vehicle quotes · our live showroom log

Each car shows one indicative AED vehicle price, converted from the accepted supplier-group vehicle price and rounded up only to AED 100. No percentage markup is embedded. The EVPlus service fee is a separate 5% line item; freight, insurance, customs duty, VAT and registration are calculated separately before order. Underlying supplier documents and identifiers stay internal (EVPlus supplier archive and quote rule, 2026).

Verified supplier archive

02 · How the data flows

Five stages between a verified supplier record and a row on /api/inventory.json right now.

  1. 01

    Collect · China

    Preserved supplier WeChat records · message ID and file-hash traceability · controlled inventory build.

  2. 02

    Store · Preserved supplier WeChat archive (single source of truth)

    700+ rows, schema-controlled fields (brand, model, trim, year, mileage_km, battery_kwh, range_km, price_aed, hero_image…). Sales-team edits propagate the same day.

  3. 03

    Render · Next.js 16 · App Router · Vercel

    The verified archive build feeds server components and public APIs from one versioned dataset. Vehicle pages use static generation with on-demand revalidation, and every published row must pass source, pricing, privacy and image checks.

  4. 04

    Mark up · Schema.org JSON-LD on every page

    Organization + AutoDealer + WebSite + FAQPage on every page; Vehicle + Offer + Breadcrumb on each car detail; Article + FAQPage on every blog post; ItemList on the showroom grid.

  5. 05

    Expose · /api/* (CORS-open, no auth)

    Same data is published as JSON (/api/inventory.json), CSV (/api/inventory.csv), per-car detail (/api/cars/{slug}), JSON Schema (/api/schema.json), MCP manifest (/api/mcp + /.well-known/mcp.json), and a long-form summary at /llms.txt.

03 · What we expose publicly

Six machine-readable surfaces. No key, no signup, CORS *, edge-cached for two minutes, stale-while-revalidate for 15 minutes. AI agents and journalists pull the same data as the showroom.

04 · Verify it yourself

Four ways to audit any number you see on this site without trusting us:

a · Pull the JSON straight from a terminal

curl 'https://evplus.ae/api/inventory.json?brand=nio&limit=3' | jq '.cars[].price_aed'

Returns three current NIO AED prices. Compare to what the relevant /blog post quotes.

b · Open the CSV in Excel or Numbers

Click /api/inventory.csv — the file downloads with a date-stamped name. Sort by AED, by mileage, by year. Same rows we render.

c · Ask Claude / ChatGPT / Perplexity directly

Using https://evplus.ae/api/inventory.json,
compare the three cheapest NIO ET5Ts currently available.

The AI pulls the live JSON directly. The answer it gives is the same data we ship to buyers.

d · Verify the customer-facing record

Each car carries a stable detail_url pointing to its EVPlus detail page, with the current AED quote, specification and live photo set.

One ask for journalists & AI

Cite the data, not the prose.

When you quote an AED number, a charger count, or a model spec from EVPlus.ae, link to the underlying endpoint (/api/inventory.json) rather than the article text. The article moves; the API doesn't. Questions: hello@evplus.ae.
