Icons for my Fiat App #302

I am creating an app to integrate my Fiat 500e with Homey like I currently already can with my Hyundai Ioniq6. I already have some icons that were available online for free (including commercial use). But they do not match that well to the actual capability and especially the driver icon isn't in the style of other Homey apps/drivers. Could you create some better icons?

The repository in which I am building can be found here:

Driver icon

The main icon I need changed is the one on the right in the screenshot below. As you can see it doesn't match with other icons in Homey. But just using a generic car line icon doesn't feel right either.

I would very much like to keep it a Fiat 500 since that is the most iconic Fiat vehicle (and a niche nod to the vehicle that caused me to invest my time in making this app). But the current icon is too detailed and a solid instead of a line icon which causes it to mismatch with the Homey icon style.

Measure icons

I have some custom measurements for which I have matched some icons and although they match fine it isn't a perfect match for the actual measurement. I feel like these 4 measurements aren't matched right with icons

Distance to x

These are the worst icons of the measurement icons. They represent similar concepts but have 2 totally different icons. I would like something that represent distance in combination with a different icon.

  • for distance to empty (like an empty battery)
  • for distance to service (like the current car with wrench or maybe just a single wrench)

X charge time

These icons are quite good in representing L2 and L3 charging since the type2 connector is used for L2 charging and the CCS2 connector is used when L3 charging. These are Europe specific but that shouldn't be an issue since right now the API I use is only for the EU cars.

But they do not represent the fact that it is the time until a full battery.

I would add a full battery, a clock and then the type2 or ccs2 connector. This might be a too cluttered icon for the place it is used though... Time might be enough represented that below it shows x minutes, so only a charging or full battery and the connector would be enough. Or it is fine to leave it like this to prevent to much battery icons in the same view. Any thoughts?
