What is Moteur.ma?
Moteur.ma is a dedicated automotive portal in Morocco, listing used and new cars from dealers and private sellers. Being auto-focused, it offers slightly more structured vehicle fields than a horizontal classifieds, and it cross-publishes inventory with Avito.ma to extend reach. Listings are in French and Arabic.
Market Position
Moteur.ma is Morocco’s leading auto-specific portal (moderate traffic, thousands of listings), complementing the dominant horizontal Avito.ma. Because the two cross-publish, together they cover the bulk of the Moroccan car market — Avito provides breadth and private supply, Moteur adds auto-portal structure and dealer focus. It is a solid mid-priority structured source for Morocco.
Data Fields Available
Carapis extracts a structured record from each Moteur.ma listing:
- Vehicle identity — make, model, trim, model year, body type, fuel type, transmission
- Condition — mileage
- Pricing — listed price (in MAD)
- Listing context — seller type (dealer vs private), dealer info, location, photo gallery
Its auto-portal structure gives slightly richer, more consistent vehicle fields than the horizontal Avito.ma, useful for dealer-focused pricing.
