OLX.ro Data Parser & API
OLX.ro is Romania’s leading horizontal classifieds, with a very high all-category traffic and a large C2C car section, and Carapis can extract its listing data, including spec, mileage, photos and seller info, through one REST API. Owned by OLX Group (Prosus/Naspers), it is the private-seller tier that complements its sister auto vertical, Autovit.
On request — not in the live feed today. We do not continuously crawl OLX.ro 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 OLX.ro?
OLX.ro is the dominant horizontal classifieds platform in Romania, run by OLX Group under Prosus/Naspers. Its vehicles category is heavily private-seller (C2C) and complements the dealer-rich Autovit, which shares the same parent. OLX.ro carries very high all-category traffic and a large pool of C2C car listings.
Market Position
OLX.ro is the C2C layer of the Romanian auto market, with very high all-category traffic and a large private-seller car base. Together with Autovit.ro, also OLX Group / Prosus, it gives near-complete coverage of Romania — dealer and private. The shared OLX-Motors stack means one parser pattern extends across the group’s verticals in Romania, Poland and Uzbekistan. Carapis can handle the JS rendering and serves the data through one unified endpoint.
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 OLX.ro is no exception.
List — GET /apix/api/vehicles/ — returns 30 fields per vehicle:

Its private-seller depth makes OLX.ro the complement to Autovit’s dealer inventory for a full Romanian market view.
