Chileautos Scraper — Chile Used & New Car Listings

Extract vehicle listings from Chileautos.cl, Chile's largest car marketplace (~70,000 active listings of cars, pickups, SUVs, motorcycles, trucks and more). Get clean, structured data: make, model, trim, year, price in CLP, mileage, fuel, transmission, body type, region, seller type, dealer name, photos and badges. Optionally add the full spec sheet, equipment list, color, comuna, publication date and the seller's description.

Built for reliability: the Actor reads the same JSON endpoints the website uses (no fragile HTML parsing), detects anti-bot challenges and switches automatically to Chilean residential proxies when needed, and never finishes "successfully" with zero results when something went wrong — it either returns data or fails with a clear message.

What you can do with it

• Price monitoring & market research — track asking prices by make, model, year and region; build depreciation curves.
• Dealer lead generation — list automotoras (dealers) with their stock size, regions and price ranges.
• Inventory analytics — supply by body type, fuel (hybrid/electric adoption), transmission, mileage bands.
• Car-buying alerts — run daily with sort: newest and diff the results to catch new listings fast.
• Valuation models / ML datasets — tens of thousands of priced listings with mileage, year and specs.

Features

• Filters: make, model, keyword, vehicle type, condition (used/new), seller type (dealer/private), region, city, body type, fuel, transmission, year range, price range (CLP), mileage range.
• Or paste direct URLs: any chileautos.cl search page (including filtered ?q=... URLs) or individual listing pages.
• Sorting: newest, relevance, price, mileage, model year.
• No 900-result ceiling: the site only pages through 900 results per search; when you ask for more, the Actor transparently splits the search into price bands and keeps going (tested: 1,000 unique Toyotas in strict price order in 45 seconds).
• Optional details add-on (fetchDetails): exterior/interior color, comuna, doors, seats, engine cc, cylinders, drivetrain, publication date, saleStatus, description, 60+ spec fields (power, torque, dimensions, airbags, consumption...), equipment list and the financing simulation shown on the listing.
• Deduplicated by listing ID, exact maxItems, a SUMMARY record in the key-value store with request counts, transfer size and errors.
• Privacy by design: private sellers' names and phone numbers are never collected; phone numbers and e-mails typed into descriptions are redacted. Dealer names (businesses) are included.

Field notes:

• price is in Chilean pesos (CLP). priceText is the label shown on the site.
• sellerType is dealer (automotora) or private. dealerName is only filled for dealers.
• isPromoted / promotionType mark paid placements (top spot nitro, top spot, showcase dealer), which the site injects at the top of "relevance" results.
• engineLiters, doors and drivetrain are parsed from the trim string when details are not fetched, and taken from the spec sheet when they are.
• publishedAt is the site's publish timestamp (Chile local time) and is null when the site does not expose one.
• photos holds the full-size photo URLs available on the card (up to 5) or listing page; photoCount is the total number of photos on the listing.

Pricing

Pay per event — you only pay for results:

Event	Price	When
Vehicle result	US$3.00 per 1,000 (US$0.003 each)	Every vehicle saved to the dataset
Vehicle details (add-on)	US$2.00 per 1,000 (US$0.002 each)	Each listing page opened when fetchDetails is on (and for direct listing URLs)
Actor start	US$0.00005	Once per run

Example: 1,000 vehicles without details ≈ US$3.00; with full details ≈ US$5.00. Platform usage (compute, proxy) is included.

FAQ

How many listings can I get? As many as the site has (~70,000). Searches above 900 results are split into price bands automatically, so one run can export a whole make or the entire site.

How fast is it? About 300 vehicles in 10 seconds without details; details add one request per vehicle (5 in parallel), roughly 30 vehicles in 7 seconds.

Do I need a proxy? No. The Actor connects directly and only switches to Apify residential proxies in Chile if the site's anti-bot protection challenges it. That switch is automatic and logged.

What if the site blocks or changes? Every response is checked. Blocks trigger fresh sessions and the residential fallback; if data still cannot be fetched, the run fails with an explicit error instead of returning an empty dataset. A search that legitimately has no matches ends with a clear "0 listings match" status message.

Can I get the seller's phone number? No. To respect Chilean data-protection law (Ley 19.628 / 21.719), the Actor does not collect private sellers' names or contact details, and redacts phone numbers and e-mails found inside descriptions. Dealer (business) names are included.

Why are some fields null? Not every listing publishes every attribute (e.g. private sellers often skip interior color or specs). Detail-only fields are null unless fetchDetails is on.

Is the make/model spelling important? Matching is case-insensitive and the Actor resolves common variants through the site's own catalog (mercedes benz → Mercedes-Benz). If a make or model does not exist on the site, the run fails immediately with a message instead of returning nothing.
