Car data scraper: specs, 0-60 times and power
Pricing
from $3.00 / 1,000 car specs
Extract consolidated car specs and performance for any brand or model: power, torque, 0-60 mph, top speed and full technical data. auto-data is the backbone, three more sources enrich a variant when they match, and every value carries its source. By MrBridge
Make
make
Optional
Car manufacturer / brand name
Model
model
Optional
Model name (e.g. 'TT', 'M3')
Canonical variant ID
canonicalVariantId
Optional
Stable, deterministic slug built from make, model, body, displacement, power and start year, identical across runs. It is a GROUPING key, not a unique one: variants that differ only in fuel, gearbox or door count share an id, and on a BMW brand run 84% of rows fall into such a group. For a unique key, use the auto-data source URL in sourcesDetail.
Generation
generation
Optional
Generation identifier (e.g. '8N 1998-2006', 'E46')
Modification / Variant
modification
Optional
Engine/trim variant label as listed by the source (e.g. '1.8T 180 hp')
Production year start
yearStart
Optional
First year of production for this variant
Production year end
yearEnd
Optional
Last year of production for this variant; null if still in production
Fuel type
fuelType
Optional
Fuel type: Petrol, Diesel, Electric, Hybrid and more
Engine displacement (cc)
engineCc
Optional
Engine displacement in cubic centimetres
Power (hp)
powerHp
Optional
Maximum power output in horsepower (metric hp)
Power (kW)
powerKw
Optional
Maximum power output in kilowatts
Torque (Nm)
torqueNm
Optional
Maximum torque in Newton-metres
Power basis
powerBasis
Optional
Which auto-data.net row supplied powerHp. 'system' means the System power row, which is the total output an electric, plug-in hybrid or full hybrid variant delivers and the figure the variant name quotes. 'engine' means the Power row, which is the whole output on a combustion or mild-hybrid car and the combustion engine alone on a hybrid that also publishes a System power row. Null when powerHp is null. This is a choice between two figures the source printed, never a calculation: read the nested engine section to see both as published.
Torque basis
torqueBasis
Optional
Which auto-data.net row supplied torqueNm, on the same rule as powerBasis: 'system' for the System torque row, 'engine' for the Torque row, null when torqueNm is null.
Battery (kWh)
batteryCapacityKwh
Optional
Gross battery capacity in kWh, as published by auto-data.net. Present on battery-electric, plug-in hybrid and full hybrid variants that state it, null on a combustion car and null when the source does not publish it. Gross, not usable: the site publishes the gross figure and nothing is deducted from it here.
Electric range (km)
electricRangeKm
Optional
All-electric range in km, as published by auto-data.net under Electric range or Electric range (WLTP). Present on battery-electric and plug-in hybrid variants that state it, null otherwise. Reported exactly as published, with no conversion between test cycles and no estimate when the row is absent.
0-100 km/h (s)
zeroToHundredS
Optional
Acceleration time from 0 to 100 km/h in seconds
Top speed (km/h)
topSpeedKmh
Optional
Electronically or mechanically limited top speed in km/h
0-60 mph (s)
zeroToSixtyMphS
Optional
Acceleration from 0 to 60 mph in seconds, supplied by the highest-priority source that published this field. Read zeroToSixtyMphMethod for the stated measurement method; null means unknown.
0-60 mph method
zeroToSixtyMphMethod
Optional
How the zeroToSixtyMphS figure was obtained: measured, calculated, or manufacturer-claimed. Auto-Data publishes some 0-60 mph figures it computed itself rather than measured, and this column is what tells the two apart. Null when the source stated no method, which is the common case. Null means unknown, not measured.
Quarter mile (s)
quarterMileS
Optional
Standing quarter mile time in seconds.
Power to weight (hp/t)
powerToWeightHpPerT
Optional
Power-to-weight ratio in hp per tonne.
Peak G
peakG
Optional
Peak lateral/longitudinal g measured (from carperformancedata.com when available).

Optional
Number of cylinders
Valves
valves
Optional
Total number of valves
Compression ratio
compression
Optional
Engine compression ratio as a string (e.g. '9.5:1')

Fuel consumption (L/100km)
fuelConsumptionL100
Optional
Combined fuel consumption in litres per 100 km
CO2 emissions (g/km)
co2GKm
Optional
Reference CO2 emissions in grams per kilometre. Compatibility rule: WLTP when a WLTP figure is present, otherwise NEDC. Read co2Standard to know which standard this row carries, and the nested fuelEconomy section for the standard-specific figures. On a multi-source row the reference figure comes from the highest-priority source that published one, and co2Standard is null when that source stated no standard.
CO2 standard
co2Standard
Optional
Which emissions standard the co2GKm value follows: WLTP or NEDC. Always describes the source that supplied co2GKm: when the winning source stated no standard, this is null rather than borrowing a standard from another source.
Sources
sources
Optional
List of source identifiers that contributed data to this row (e.g. ['autodata', 'ultimatespecs'])
[ "autodata", "ultimatespecs"]Conflicts
conflicts
Optional
Fields where sources disagreed beyond the conflict threshold. Each entry names the field and the conflicting values. Null when no conflicts detected.
Dedupe confidence
dedupeConfidence
Optional
Confidence (0-1) that the enrichment sources were merged onto the correct variant: the minimum match score across matched non-spine sources. Higher is safer. 1.0 = exact model + exact power. null on single-source rows (auto-data only, nothing merged). The per-source exact/fuzzy/none labels remain in flags.matchConfidence.
Engine (traced)
engine
Optional
Engine section with per-field provenance. Each key (power_hp, power_kw, torque_nm, displacement_cm3, cylinders, valves_per_cyl, compression_ratio, fuel_type and more) maps to an object { value, unit, source, alternatives }, where source is the winning source and alternatives lists competing values from the other sources. Any traced value may also carry an optional measurementKind of measured, calculated or manufacturer-claimed, describing how that figure was obtained rather than who published it. Most values do not carry it: the property is absent whenever the source stated no method, and its absence must not be read as measured.
{ "power_hp": { "value": 245, "unit": "hp", "source": "autodata", "alternatives": [ { "value": 245, "source": "ultimatespecs" } ] }}Performance (traced)
performance
Optional
Performance section with per-field provenance. Each key (accel_0_100_kmh, top_speed_kmh and more) maps to an object { value, unit, source, alternatives }, where source is the winning source and alternatives lists competing values from the other sources. Any traced value may also carry an optional measurementKind of measured, calculated or manufacturer-claimed, describing how that figure was obtained rather than who published it. Most values do not carry it: the property is absent whenever the source stated no method, and its absence must not be read as measured.
{ "accel_0_100_kmh": { "value": 5.2, "unit": "s", "source": "autodata", "alternatives": [ { "value": 5.1, "source": "ultimatespecs" } ] }}Transmission (traced)
transmissionDetail
Optional
Transmission section with per-field provenance. Each key (drive_wheels, gearbox_type, gears and more) maps to an object { value, unit, source, alternatives }, where source is the winning source and alternatives lists competing values from the other sources. Nested under transmissionDetail because the flat transmission column owns the top-level transmission key. Any traced value may also carry an optional measurementKind of measured, calculated or manufacturer-claimed, describing how that figure was obtained rather than who published it. Most values do not carry it: the property is absent whenever the source stated no method, and its absence must not be read as measured.
{ "gears": { "value": 7, "unit": null, "source": "autodata", "alternatives": [ { "value": 6, "source": "carperformancedata" } ] }}Dimensions (traced)
dimensions
Optional
Dimensions section with per-field provenance. Each key (length_mm, width_mm, height_mm, wheelbase_mm, kerb_weight_kg and more) maps to an object { value, unit, source, alternatives }, where source is the winning source and alternatives lists competing values from the other sources. Any traced value may also carry an optional measurementKind of measured, calculated or manufacturer-claimed, describing how that figure was obtained rather than who published it. Most values do not carry it: the property is absent whenever the source stated no method, and its absence must not be read as measured.
{ "kerb_weight_kg": { "value": 1440, "unit": "kg", "source": "ultimatespecs", "alternatives": [ { "value": 1455, "source": "autodata" } ] }}Fuel economy (traced)
fuelEconomy
Optional
Fuel economy section with per-field provenance. Each key (consumption_combined_l100, co2_gkm, fuel_tank_l and more) maps to an object { value, unit, source, alternatives }, where source is the winning source and alternatives lists competing values from the other sources. When a source distinguishes emissions standards, co2_wltp_gkm and co2_nedc_gkm carry the standard-specific figures and co2_standard names the one co2_gkm reflects. Not every source publishes them, so these three keys are absent on rows where no standard was stated. Any traced value may also carry an optional measurementKind of measured, calculated or manufacturer-claimed, describing how that figure was obtained rather than who published it. Most values do not carry it: the property is absent whenever the source stated no method, and its absence must not be read as measured.
{ "consumption_combined_l100": { "value": 7.4, "unit": "l/100km", "source": "autodata", "alternatives": [ { "value": 7.6, "source": "ultimatespecs" } ] }}Chassis (traced)
chassis
Optional
Chassis section with per-field provenance. Each key (front_brakes, rear_brakes, front_tyres, rear_tyres and more) maps to an object { value, unit, source, alternatives }, where source is the winning source and alternatives lists competing values from the other sources. Any traced value may also carry an optional measurementKind of measured, calculated or manufacturer-claimed, describing how that figure was obtained rather than who published it. Most values do not carry it: the property is absent whenever the source stated no method, and its absence must not be read as measured.
{ "front_tyres": { "value": "245/40 R18", "unit": null, "source": "ultimatespecs", "alternatives": [ { "value": "245/40 ZR18", "source": "autodata" } ] }}Sources detail

flags
Optional
Consolidation flags: hasConflict (boolean), conflicts (array of {field, maxDeviationPct, values}), and matchConfidence (per-source exact/fuzzy/none).
{ "hasConflict": true, "conflicts": [ { "field": "kerb_weight_kg", "maxDeviationPct": 1.04, "values": [ { "value": 1440, "source": "ultimatespecs" }, { "value": 1455, "source": "autodata" } ] } ], "matchConfidence": { "autodata": "exact", "ultimatespecs": "exact", "carperformancedata": "fuzzy", "zeperfs": "none" }}Is error row
