Cars24 (India) Data Parser & API

Cars24 is a leading online used-car dealer in India — an estimated ~5.6M monthly visits and “lakhs” of certified listings — and Carapis extracts its inventory, including certified-inspection reports and condition grades, through one REST API. As a full-stack online dealer (not a classifieds site), Cars24 attaches inspection checklists and condition grades to its certified cars — among the richest condition data in South Asia — and Carapis serves it without you fighting its JS-heavy bot defences.

What is Cars24?

Cars24 is an Indian online used-car marketplace and dealer that buys, inspects, certifies and resells vehicles. It also operates regionally (UAE, Australia). Unlike pure classifieds, Cars24 lists curated certified inventory with structured inspection data, and is part of India’s “used-car IPO pipeline” alongside CarDekho and Spinny. SimilarWeb/Semrush estimate ~5.6M monthly visits (2025).

Market Position

Cars24 is one of the major independent D2C online-dealers in India, competing with Spinny, Maruti True Value and Mahindra First Choice on certified used-car supply. It is reportedly in a ~$1B India used-car IPO pipeline (PL Capital) alongside CarDekho and Spinny. Because it certifies its own inventory, Cars24’s inspection reports and condition grades are among the closest South-Asian analogues to inspection-sheet richness — though not as granular as Korean Encar or Japanese auction sheets.

Data Fields Available

Carapis extracts a structured record from each Cars24 listing:

• Vehicle identity — make, model, variant, model year, fuel type, transmission
• Condition — mileage, certified-inspection report and condition grade (the standout Cars24 fields)
• Pricing — listed price
• Listing context — location, curated photo gallery

The inspection-report and condition-grade fields make Cars24 valuable for pricing intelligence and remote vetting of certified used cars.
