MotiveGrid Vehicle Database is an MCP server that provides AI assistants with grounded vehicle intelligence. Compare cars, retrieve vehicle scorecards, analyze five-year cost of ownership, evaluate safety and driver-assistance features, and generate personalized vehicle recommendations using structured automotive data instead of web search.
Server tool list (5)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| ping | Health check for the MotiveGrid MCP server. Returns "ok". Use only to verify connectivity. |
| search_vehicles | Search MotiveGrid’s catalog of scored vehicles by free text (make, model, body type, or need, e.g. "small AWD SUV" or "Honda Accord"). Returns matching vehicles with their canonical slug. Use this FIRST to resolve a slug before calling get_vehicle_scorecard or compare_vehicles. |
| get_vehicle_scorecard | Get the full MotiveGrid scorecard for ONE vehicle: the five ownership pillars (cost of ownership, powertrain, safety, driver assistance, livability) in plain language, key specs, five-year cost of ownership (itemized), and crash-test status, with sources. Use when the user asks about a specific vehicle. Resolve the slug with search_vehicles first if unsure. |
| compare_vehicles | Compare TWO MotiveGrid vehicles head-to-head: key specs, itemized five-year cost of ownership, and a grounded verdict on which is the better long-term ownership pick and why. Use when the user names two vehicles ("X vs Y"). Resolve slugs with search_vehicles first if unsure. |
| recommend_vehicle | Recommend the best vehicles for a buyer from their ranked priorities, monthly budget, and body type. Returns a ranked TOP-3 shortlist with the reasoning for each — a structured decision, not a listings dump. Use for "which car should I buy" or when the user describes their needs. Valid priorities (ordered, most important first): cost, powertrain, safety, driver, livability. |
