Motory Data Parser & API
Motory is a Saudi Arabia + GCC automotive portal carrying dealer and private car listings — and Carapis can extract its full listing data, including make, model, year, mileage, price and dealer info, through one REST API. It rounds out the Saudi cluster alongside Haraj and Syarah, and Carapis can serve its data without you building a scraper.
On request — not in the live feed today. We do not continuously crawl Motory 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 Motory?
Motory is an automotive portal serving Saudi Arabia and the wider GCC, listing used and new vehicles from both dealers and private sellers. It offers a structured auto-shopping experience across multiple Gulf markets from a single brand, with an estimated ~1-2M monthly visits. Motory complements the C2C-heavy Haraj and the dealer-focused Syarah by offering a portal-style mix of both.
Market Position
Motory is a mid-tier but multi-market Saudi/GCC auto portal (~1-2M monthly visits, est.), giving coverage across several Gulf countries from one source. While smaller than Haraj or the major UAE platforms, its dealer-plus-private mix and GCC footprint make it a useful breadth source. Together with Haraj and Syarah, it helps Carapis map the Saudi used-car market — worth roughly USD 10.2B in 2025 — from multiple supply angles.
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 Motory 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.
Motory’s value is its combination of dealer and private listings across multiple GCC markets, useful for cross-market pricing comparison.
