OLX Brasil Autos Data Parser & API
OLX Brasil Autos is one of Brazil’s top-five classifieds platforms, owned by Prosus/Naspers, and Carapis can extract its vehicle listing data — make, model, year, mileage, price, seller type and location — through one REST API. It captures the private-seller (C2C) side of Brazil’s car market that dedicated portals like Webmotors largely miss.
On request — not in the live feed today. We do not continuously crawl OLX Brasil — Autos 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 Brasil Autos?
OLX Brasil is a major general-classifieds platform, and Autos is its vehicles vertical — covering used cars, private and dealer listings, and motorcycles. It is owned by Prosus (the Naspers digital-ecosystem arm). Unlike Brazil’s bank-owned portals, OLX skews heavily toward private (C2C) sellers, making it the place to capture true private-party pricing.
Market Position
OLX Brasil ranks among the country’s top-five classifieds platforms, and its Autos vertical is a primary surface for private-seller cars in Latin America’s largest car market. Note the consolidation contrast with the rest of Brazil: while Webmotors, Mobiauto and iCarros are bank-owned portals, OLX is the Prosus-owned classifieds player — and OLX, iCarros and Mercado Livre have run joint anti-fraud campaigns, showing how interlinked the Brazilian market is. Importantly, OLX’s classifieds business in Brazil remains active, unlike the OLX Autos instant-buy operations that exited Spanish-speaking Latin America in 2023.
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 Brasil — Autos 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 private-seller coverage is OLX’s distinctive value: it surfaces C2C pricing the dealer-focused portals don’t carry.
