TuCarro Data Parser & API
TuCarro is Colombia’s #1 vehicles marketplace — and it is Mercado Libre’s Colombian automotive brand — so Carapis can extract its structured listing data, including make, model, year, mileage, price, location and seller type, through one REST API. Because TuCarro runs on the Mercado Libre stack, its data fits the same consistent schema used across the region’s six-market ML family.
On request — not in the live feed today. We do not continuously crawl TuCarro 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 TuCarro?
TuCarro (tucarro.com.co) is the leading car and motorcycle marketplace in Colombia. It is Mercado Libre’s Colombian automotive brand — the same platform and schema as MercadoLibre Autos elsewhere in the region, simply operating under the TuCarro name in Colombia. It carries used, new, private and dealer listings plus motorcycles.
Market Position
TuCarro is the #1 vehicles site in Colombia, ranked around global #6454 (SimilarWeb, Feb 2026) with roughly 68.7% organic traffic. Its key consolidation fact: TuCarro is Mercado Libre — so it is part of the single biggest data lever in LatAm, where one ML-family parser spans Brazil, Mexico, Argentina, Chile, Uruguay and Colombia (TuCarro). It leads Colombia ahead of Carroya, the #2 dedicated portal. As with the ML family, bulk access is gated and anti-bot is heavy, which is why Carapis can handle extraction and normalization.
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 TuCarro 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.
Because TuCarro shares the Mercado Libre schema, its fields line up directly with MercadoLibre Autos in other countries — ideal for cross-market Colombia-vs-region comparison.
