Key features

• 📉 Price-drop and new-listing monitoring. Incremental mode emits only NEW, UPDATED and REAPPEARED cars. A price move is labelled DECREASED or INCREASED, with the old price and the difference on the record. Sold and removed cars can be reported too.
• 💶 mobile.de's own price verdict, with the numbers behind it. Every rated listing carries its rating and the six price points that bound mobile.de's bands for that exact car, so you see the fair-market range, not just a label.
• 🧠 The listing's AI summary and highlights. aiSummary + aiHighlights capture mobile.de's AI-written take on each car, ready for ranking or an LLM pipeline.
• 🚫 Full inventory past the ~2,000-result limit. Larger searches are split automatically and read completely (6,542 of 6,542 Volvo XC60s in testing).
• 🚘 12 vehicle types. Cars, motorbikes, motorhomes, vans, trucks, semi-trailer trucks, trailers, semi-trailers, buses, agricultural vehicles, construction machines and forklifts.
• 🏷️ Make and model by name, in any spelling. 3er, 3 Series, C-Klasse and Classe C all resolve. Paste a mobile.de search link and every filter in it is kept.
• 🎚️ 20+ filters applied on mobile.de, including emission class, drive type, minimum seats, vehicle country and a German postcode or town name + radius. You never pay for listings you filtered out.
• 📇 Dealer lead data. Phone numbers, WhatsApp, contact person, website, address, GPS, rating, recommendation rate, opening hours and languages, plus a whole dealer's stock by dealer ID.
• ⚡ Fast, low-cost and AI-ready. Close to 2,000 listings a minute with details off, Telegram/Slack/Discord/webhook alerts, and compact or drop-empty output for LLM and MCP payloads.

Data fields

• Always: price, rating and price bands, VAT split, vehicle identity and key specs, location, photos, timestamps, and the seller's name, phones, WhatsApp, rating, address and GPS.
• With includeDetails (on by default): description (also as descriptionHtml / descriptionMarkdown), equipment list, full spec sheet, consumption detail, EV charging data, AI summary and highlights, contact person, website, opening hours, languages, recommendation rate and member-since date.
• With incrementalMode: changeType, firstSeenAt / lastSeenAt, previousPrice, priceChange and priceChangeAmount on a price move, expiredAt, and isRepost / repostOfId.

Every field is present in standard mode (missing values are null). Compact mode returns 21 core fields, and excludeEmptyFields drops empties entirely. The Output tab ships three views: Overview, Sellers & contacts and Changes.

♻️ How to monitor mobile.de with incremental mode

Schedule the Actor with incremental mode on. Each run compares against the previous one and emits only NEW, UPDATED (including every price drop) and REAPPEARED listings. Unchanged cars are recognised from the search results before their details are loaded, so you skip both the work and the cost. Each tracked search remembers up to about 22,000 listings.

	First run (baseline)	Next run (nothing changed)	Next run (one car cut its price)
Listings found	all	all	all
Full details loaded	all	none	1
Records emitted & billed	all	none	1, with previousPrice, priceChange: DECREASED and priceChangeAmount

After the baseline, your cost scales with how much mobile.de changes, not with how much you watch:

Daily churn	of 1,000 tracked	billable records	you save
5 %	1,000	50	95 %
15 %	1,000	150	85 %
30 %	1,000	300	70 %

Setting up scheduled monitoring

1. Configure your search, keep Sort by on Newest first and set Max results to 0. Sold/removed listings are only reported by runs that read the whole search.
2. Turn on Incremental mode, plus Include sold/removed listings and Skip re-listed cars if you want them.
3. Run it once to seed the baseline, then add a schedule (hourly or daily) in the Schedules tab and a notification channel.

A daily price-drop watch on used Porsche 911s with a Telegram alert:

{
  "make": "Porsche",
  "model": "911",
  "condition": ["USED"],
  "maxResults": 0,
  "incrementalMode": true,
  "emitExpired": true,
  "telegramToken": "<bot token>",
  "telegramChatId": "@your_channel"
}

🔔 How to set up mobile.de alerts

Get pinged the moment a matching car is listed or drops its price. Fill in only the channels you want:

Channel	What to configure
✈️ Telegram	telegramToken (from @BotFather) + telegramChatId
💬 Slack	slackWebhookUrl (Incoming Webhook URL)
🎮 Discord	discordWebhookUrl (channel webhook URL)
🪝 Webhook	webhookUrl (+ optional webhookHeaders) receives structured JSON, ideal for n8n / Make / Zapier

Each alert lists up to notificationLimit cars (default 5, up to 20) with price, mileage, first registration and, on a price drop, the old price. Channels fire independently, and a broken one can't stop the scrape. Credentials are secret inputs: encrypted at rest, masked in the UI and never written to the run log.

💡 What can you do with mobile.de data?

Catch underpriced cars before anyone else

Schedule a newest-first search with incremental mode and a Telegram alert, and filter on priceRating: VERY_GOOD_PRICE. You hear about bargains soon after they go online, with the dealer's phone number attached.

Used-car valuation and residual-value models

Read an entire make or model past the 2,000-result limit, with mileage, year, power, equipment and condition on every row, and mobile.de's own price bands as a market benchmark for each car.

Track price drops and days-on-market

previousPrice, priceChangeAmount, firstSeenAt and the sold/removed records show which models are being discounted and how long they sit, which is the raw material for pricing your stock or timing a purchase.

Dealer lead generation for automotive services

Build regional dealer lists with phone, WhatsApp, contact person, website, address, GPS, rating and sellerId, a natural fit for financing, insurance, logistics and software vendors.

Competitor stock monitoring for dealers

Point the sellerId filter at a rival dealership and schedule it. You see every car they add, every price change and every vehicle that sells.

Export and fleet sourcing across Europe

Filter by country, vatDeductibleOnly and emission class to source VAT-deductible vehicles in 20 European countries, then export the list straight to Excel.

💰 How much does it cost to scrape mobile.de?

This Actor uses Apify's pay-per-event model: a small fee when a run starts, plus a fee for each listing delivered. The Pricing tab shows the current numbers live.

There's no extra charge for full details, and none for the unchanged listings a monitoring run checks. Two things cut your bill further: site-side filters (listings you filtered out are never fetched or billed) and incremental mode (after the baseline you pay only for what changed, see the savings table above).

---

🔌 Integrations & export

Export to JSON, CSV, Excel or an HTML table, or pull from the REST API and the JavaScript / Python clients. Run it on a schedule, connect it to Google Sheets, Slack, Make, Zapier and n8n, or call it as an MCP tool from an AI agent.

Also covering European car marketplaces: AutoScout24 Scraper.

❓ FAQ

Do I need a mobile.de account or login? No. It reads public listings only and runs out of the box.

mobile.de only shows about 2,000 results per search. Can I get more? Yes. Set maxResults to 0 and larger searches are split and read to the end, up to 50,000 listings per run. Two exceptions: with Listed within (days) set, results are read newest-first without splitting, so narrow the filters if more than ~2,000 cars match; and "price on request" listings can't be placed in a price range, so a split read may miss some of them.

What do priceRating, priceRatingThresholds and priceRatingPosition mean? priceRating is mobile.de's market verdict: VERY_GOOD_PRICE, GOOD_PRICE, REASONABLE_PRICE, INCREASED_PRICE or HIGH_PRICE (NO_RATING when mobile.de didn't rate the car). priceRatingThresholds are the six prices in EUR that bound those five bands, cheapest first, so the third and fourth values are mobile.de's fair-market range for that car. priceRatingPosition is how far into its band the price sits (0–100).

Why are aiSummary, features or description empty? They come with full details, so keep Fetch full details on. aiSummary is filled only where mobile.de has written one, and not every listing has one.

Why are model, version and priceRating empty on motorbikes and trucks? mobile.de only records the make for most non-car vehicle types and only rates car prices. The model is still in the title, and make, category and every spec are filled as usual.

Why is sellerWhatsapp, sellerRating or imageUrls empty on some listings? Those exist only when the seller provides them. Many dealers don't list WhatsApp, private sellers have no rating, opening hours or website, and some imported partner listings come without photos.

Which model names work? The names you'd use on mobile.de and their common variants: 3er, 3 Series, C-Klasse, Classe C, Golf. If a name isn't a mobile.de model (e.g. 320d), that make's listings mentioning it are searched instead. An unknown make stops the run before anything is charged, and the status message suggests the closest names.

Can I search outside Germany? Yes. mobile.de lists vehicles across Europe; use country to pick from 20 countries. The radius search works on German postcodes and towns, or on any latitude,longitude.
