Filtering JSON data in Python

Given typical JSON of car models like this:

json_data = """{
  "cars": [
    {
      "manufacturer": "ford",
      "model": "mondeo"
    },
    {
      "manufacturer": "vauxhall",
      "model": "corsa"
    }
  ]
}"""

To filter matching cars by manufacturer in Python, use:

result = [car for car in json_data['cars'] if(car['manufacturer'] == "ford")]
