RST.ua Data Parser & API
RST.ua is a Ukrainian used-car classifieds — an estimated few million visits per month — and Carapis extracts its listing data, including spec, mileage and photos, through one REST API. A secondary marketplace behind the dominant AUTO.RIA, RST.ua adds private-seller coverage of the Ukrainian used-car market with relatively low anti-bot friction.

What is RST.ua?
RST.ua is a used-car classifieds site in Ukraine focused on private-seller (C2C) listings. It is a distant secondary marketplace behind AUTO.RIA but still carries a meaningful slice of Ukrainian private inventory. RST.ua draws an estimated few million visits per month.
Market Position
RST.ua sits well behind AUTO.RIA in the Ukrainian market, with an estimated few-million monthly visits (inferred, not self-reported). Its value is as a complementary private-seller source — broadening coverage beyond AUTO.RIA’s dealer-heavy mix. Anti-bot is low, so it is a low-friction target; Carapis serves its listing data through the same unified endpoint as every other platform.
Data Fields Available
Carapis extracts a structured record from each RST.ua listing:
- Vehicle identity — make, model, model year, fuel type, transmission
- Condition — mileage
- Pricing — listed price
- Specification — options
- Listing context — location, photo gallery
