Add support for Android Automotive (and/or Polestar)

[hyperbart]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Polestar car's are not yet configurable in EVCC. Polestar uses Android Automotive. Either one could choose to opt for Android Automotive (generic car) and have the Polestar added via that route or limit the solution to Polestar via Automotive.

Describe the solution you'd like Add the Polestar brand as a configurable vehicle. and/or Add any Android Automotive car as a configurable vehicle.

Describe alternatives you've considered Use Polestar as guest vehicle

Additional context Afaicau you can contact Polestar or use the Android Automotive to query necessary parameters. https://www.polestar.com/de/developer/get-started/

Be advised. Android Automotive is not the same as Android Auto.

Nope. Polestar has no API. Can't fix.

And Android Automotive is also not a good way to extract info for other vehicles?

Not if you don't want to develop an app running in the car. And even that would not have access to the soc. Blame Polestar or better don't buy one...

I'll keep that in mind when I have to pick a company car here :) . Luckily it's now only a visitors car 😃
