Mobile.de Data Parser & API
Mobile.de is Germany’s #1 car marketplace — around 57.5M visits per month and an estimated 1.4M+ live listings — and Carapis can extract its full listing data, including German spec fields and TÜV/HU inspection context, through one REST API. Owned by Adevinta (controlled by a Permira + Blackstone consortium since the 2023 take-private), Mobile.de carries the deepest structured used-car data in Europe’s largest car market, and Carapis can serve it without you fighting a DataDome-protected scraper.
On request — not in the live feed today. We do not continuously crawl Mobile.de right now. Activation takes 2–3 weeks of engineering and is quoted per source, because each one ships with dedicated proxies, anti-bot tuning and ongoing maintenance. Ask us to add it.

What is Mobile.de?
Mobile.de is the leading vehicle marketplace in Germany, also serving Austria, listing cars, commercial vehicles and motorcycles from both licensed dealers and private sellers. It is owned by Adevinta, the pan-European classifieds group taken private in 2023 by Permira and Blackstone. With roughly 57.5M monthly visits (SimilarWeb, Mar 2026) and well over a million live listings, it is the definitive source for German used-car inventory and pricing.
Market Position
Mobile.de is the clear #1 by traffic in Germany at ~57.5M visits/mo (SimilarWeb, Mar 2026), ahead of AutoScout24’s German site, with an estimated ~1.4M+ vehicles live. In 2025 its owners (Permira/Blackstone via Adevinta) were weighing a multi-billion-euro IPO or stake sale of the asset, with interest reported from Prosus and EQT — a signal of how strategically valuable German auto-classifieds data has become. Because Germany is the largest used-car market in Europe, one Mobile.de parser unlocks the single richest national dataset on the continent.
What the API returns
Response schema
Indicative — this is the shape, not a guarantee. Every source returns the same structure, so what you build against does not change when you add one. Which fields carry a value depends on the source and on the individual listing: a site that does not publish mileage returns null there, and Mobile.de is no exception.
List — GET /apix/api/vehicles/ — returns 30 fields per vehicle:

}Which sources you can actually query is answered by GET /apix/api/sources/ with your API key — it is the list your account can pull today, and it is the one to trust over any page on this site.
The German spec depth (power, emission class, first-registration, TÜV/HU) is what makes Mobile.de data uniquely valuable for pricing intelligence and cross-border import buyers.
