What is 58.com Autos?
58.com Autos (58二手车) is the used-car section of 58.com (58 Tongcheng), a leading Chinese classifieds platform spanning jobs, housing, services and vehicles. Its auto vertical aggregates a very large pool of private-seller, dealer and commercial-vehicle listings nationwide. Like other Chinese platforms it delivers structured price, spec and condition fields per listing, and its scale comes from the parent classifieds giant’s reach across China’s cities. It is also linked to Renrenche following the sector’s consolidation.
Market Position
58.com Autos draws its scale from 58.com’s position as one of China’s dominant general-classifieds platforms, giving the auto vertical broad C2C and dealer reach in a market of 20.1M used-car transactions in 2025 (SCIO). Unlike inspection-led online dealers (Guazi) or dealer-info portals (Che168, Autohome), 58.com is a classic classifieds marketplace — high volume, mixed seller types, including commercial vehicles. It also absorbed ties to Renrenche during the market’s shake-out.
Data Fields Available
Carapis extracts a structured record from each 58.com auto listing:
- Vehicle identity — make, model, trim, model year, fuel type, transmission
- Condition — mileage and seller-stated condition
- Pricing — listed price
- Specification — options and trim
- Listing context — seller type (private / dealer), commercial-vehicle category, location, photo gallery
58.com’s distinctive value is its breadth of seller types and inclusion of commercial vehicles — a wider, more C2C-heavy cross-section of the Chinese market than the curated online-dealer platforms.
