Carroya Data Parser & API

Carroya is Colombia’s #2 vehicles portal — a long-standing dedicated marketplace for cars and motorcycles — and Carapis can extract its full listing data, including make, model, year, mileage, price, spec and dealer info, through one REST API. It is the main independent alternative to TuCarro (Mercado Libre’s Colombian brand), giving broader coverage of the Colombian car market.

On request — not in the live feed today. We do not continuously crawl Carroya 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 Carroya?

Carroya (carroya.com) is one of Colombia’s oldest dedicated vehicle portals, listing used, new and dealer cars plus motorcycles. Unlike TuCarro, which is part of Mercado Libre, Carroya is an independent portal — making it a complementary source for full coverage of the Colombian market.

Market Position

Carroya is the #2 vehicles site in Colombia (SimilarWeb, Nov 2025), behind TuCarro. As an independent dedicated portal, it captures inventory and dealers that may not appear on the Mercado Libre family, so pairing Carroya with TuCarro gives the most complete Colombian car-market picture from two sources.

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 Carroya is no exception.
