AutoScout24.ch Data Parser & API
AutoScout24.ch is Switzerland’s #1 car marketplace — the leading Swiss auto portal — and Carapis extracts its full dealer and spec-rich listing data through one REST API. Owned by Hellman & Friedman as part of the wider AutoScout24 group, it carries the cleanest structured Swiss car data, and Carapis serves it without you fighting its Akamai anti-bot defences.
On request — not in the live feed today. We do not continuously crawl AutoScout24.ch 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 AutoScout24.ch?
AutoScout24.ch is the Swiss site of the AutoScout24 group, owned by Hellman & Friedman. It is the #1 car marketplace in Switzerland, listing used and new cars and motorcycles from dealers across the country. As part of the pan-European AutoScout24 platform, it shares the same rich field structure, making it the primary source of structured Swiss car data.
Market Position
AutoScout24.ch is the leading Swiss auto marketplace, aggregated in turn by price-comparison services like Comparis CarFinder. Owned by Hellman & Friedman through the AutoScout24 group, it benefits from the same data model as the group’s 18-country platform — so Swiss listings arrive in the same consistent shape as German, Italian and Spanish ones. That makes it the cleanest entry point to the Swiss market and a natural complement to the broader AutoScout24 dataset.
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 AutoScout24.ch 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 Swiss spec depth (power, first-registration) matches the wider AutoScout24 group structure, ideal for cross-border DACH pricing analysis.
