How to pass multiple objects as context to templates in class based generic view in django?

I need to pass two different objects to my template,I tried to pass but it showing only one.

I tried to pass it as dict but i got stuck, then i choose this method which also results in getting only the data from the first object.

In template tag i used

views.py

class ShowTable(ListView):
    model = TestUser

    def get_context_data(self, **kwargs):
        context = super().get_context_data(**kwargs)    
        context['vechile'] = Vechile.objects.all()
        return context

testuser_list.html

 {% for comment in object_list %}
        <tr>
            <td>{{ comment.name }}</td>
            <td>{{ comment.address }}</td>
            <td>{{ comment.phone }}</td>
            <td><a href="{% url 'myapp:edit-table' comment.id %}">edit</a></td>
            <td><a href="{% url 'myapp:delete-table' comment.id %}">Delete</a></td>
        </tr>
    {% endfor %}

 {% for comment in object_list %}
            <tr>
                <td>{{ comment.name }}</td>
                <td>{{ comment.bike }}</td>
                <td>{{ comment.car }}</td>
            </tr>
        {% endfor %}

I need to display data from both the models(TestUser and Vechile), Now i'm getting data from TestUser model only.

You can debug this by adding print(context) to the view before return context, or by using the django-debug-toolbar. You will see that the context contains object_list and vechile.

Therefore, in the template, you can do:

{% for object in object_list %}
    {{ object }}
{% endfor %}

{% for v in vechile %}
    {{ v }}
{% endfor %}
