sgCarMart Data Parser & API

sgCarMart is Singapore’s leading used-car portal — cited in roughly 70% of the country’s used-car transactions — and Carapis extracts its full listing data, including the Singapore-specific COE, PARF, OMV and depreciation fields, through one REST API. Operated under Singapore Press Holdings, sgCarMart carries the structured pricing and regulatory data that defines the Singapore market, and Carapis serves it without you building or maintaining a scraper.

What is sgCarMart?

sgCarMart is the dominant car marketplace in Singapore, listing used and new vehicles from licensed dealers and direct sellers. It is best known for surfacing the regulatory fields unique to Singapore’s vehicle market — COE (Certificate of Entitlement), PARF rebate, OMV (Open Market Value) and depreciation per year — which buyers use to compare total cost of ownership. An estimated ~2.6M monthly visits make it the country’s reference auto portal.

Market Position

sgCarMart is the clear leader in Singapore, with the platform cited in around 70% of SG used-car transactions and roughly 30K-80K active listings at any time. It is a subsidiary of Singapore Press Holdings. Because Singapore’s used-car market is regulation-heavy, sgCarMart’s structured COE/PARF/depreciation data is uniquely valuable and not replicated by regional consolidators — making it a standalone, high-priority source for the SG market.

Data Fields Available

Carapis extracts a complete structured record from each sgCarMart listing:

• Vehicle identity — make, model, trim, registration year and date
• Pricing — listed price, annual depreciation, OMV
• Singapore regulatory fields — COE value/expiry, PARF rebate eligibility (the standout SG-specific data)
• Condition — mileage
• Listing context — dealer / seller info, location, photo gallery

The COE, PARF and depreciation fields are what make sgCarMart especially valuable: they are the data points Singapore buyers and dealers use to model true cost of ownership, delivered as structured fields rather than free text.
