AutoAdvisor

AutoAdvisor is a static car research demo with searchable model cards, model-year detail selection, guided recommendations, compare tools, and AAS scoring.

How to run locally

From inside the project folder, run:

python3 -m http.server 8000

Then open:

http://localhost:8000

Latest update

• The homepage now shows one card per car model, not one card per year.
• Users can open a model card and choose a model year inside the popup.
• Changing the year updates estimated price, MPG, horsepower, reliability, maintenance cost, and AAS.
• Compare now lets users pick a model and year for Car A and Car B.
• Compare cards are still clickable and open the same details popup.
• The front page no longer shows a specific numeric AAS like 8.7. It shows AAS -/10 until a year is selected.
• Fake illustrated car SVGs were removed from use.
• The Toyota Camry uses the real image supplied by the user.
• Other models use a neutral “real vehicle photo pending” placeholder until real, approved images are added.

Data note

The current vehicle prices, MPG, reliability, mileage life, and AAS values are starter estimates for a static demo. They should be verified against current market sources before being used as real buying advice.

Latest image update

• Added user-supplied real vehicle images for all 36 starter models.
• Each card now labels the image as: Image shown: 2026 model.
• Front-page model cards keep AAS, but model-level AAS displays as - until a year is selected.
