OLX.ro Data Parser & API

OLX.ro is Romania’s leading horizontal classifieds, with a very high all-category traffic and a large C2C car section, and Carapis extracts its listing data, including spec, mileage, photos and seller info, through one REST API. Owned by OLX Group (Prosus/Naspers), it is the private-seller tier that complements its sister auto vertical, Autovit.

What is OLX.ro?

OLX.ro is the dominant horizontal classifieds platform in Romania, run by OLX Group under Prosus/Naspers. Its vehicles category is heavily private-seller (C2C) and complements the dealer-rich Autovit, which shares the same parent. OLX.ro carries very high all-category traffic and a large pool of C2C car listings.

Market Position

OLX.ro is the C2C layer of the Romanian auto market, with very high all-category traffic and a large private-seller car base. Together with Autovit.ro, also OLX Group / Prosus, it gives near-complete coverage of Romania — dealer and private. The shared OLX-Motors stack means one parser pattern extends across the group’s verticals in Romania, Poland and Uzbekistan. Carapis handles the JS rendering and serves the data through one unified endpoint.

Data Fields Available

Carapis extracts a structured record from each OLX.ro car listing:

• Vehicle identity — make, model, model year, fuel type, transmission
• Condition — mileage
• Pricing — listed price
• Specification — options
• Listing context — seller type (private vs dealer), location, photo gallery

Its private-seller depth makes OLX.ro the complement to Autovit’s dealer inventory for a full Romanian market view.
