🚗 CarsDB Myanmar Used & New Car Listings Scraper

🚀 Pull every used and brand-new car listed on carsdb.com in seconds. Filter by make, body type, plate division, steering position, or price. No API key, no registration, no manual CSV wrangling.

🕒 Last updated: 2026-05-21 · 📊 41 fields per record · 18,900+ live listings · 114 manufacturers covered · MMK and Lakh pricing with full image gallery

CarsDB is the largest car marketplace in Myanmar, covering used cars, brand-new imports, dealer inventory, and private listings across all 14 states and divisions. The Myanmar market is one of the few left in Asia where right-hand-drive Japanese imports still dominate, so the catalog skews heavily toward Toyota, Honda, Suzuki, and Nissan with model years stretching from 1990s classics to 2026 EVs. Manually copying that catalog into a spreadsheet is hours of work and goes stale within a day. This Actor sits in front of the storefront, paginates through any filter you point it at, and returns clean structured records covering make, model, year, mileage, plate division, license status, steering position, engine displacement, fuel type, body type, color, owner count, full description, seller contact, and the entire image gallery.

You feed in optional filters (manufacturer, state, build type, year range, price range in Lakh), pick a sort order, and set a maxItems cap. The Actor talks directly to the Algolia search index that powers carsdb.com, so listing pagination is fast and rate-limit-free. Each detail page is optionally fetched in a second pass to enrich the record with description text, view count, owner count, and the full image gallery. Free runs preview 10 items so you can verify the shape before scaling up. Paid runs go up to 1,000,000 items. Schedule it daily to track Yangon dealer inventory, run it on demand for an ASEAN sourcing snapshot, or wire it into your auto-export, parts-fitment, or cross-border arbitrage tool. Every record reflects the storefront at the moment of execution.

📋 What the CarsDB Scraper does

• 🚙 Full make and model catalog. 114 manufacturers from Toyota and Honda down to niche Chinese EV brands like Bestune, Hongqi, and JMEV. Every listing brings make, model, trim, year, and the CarsDB internal IDs.
• 💴 MMK and Lakh pricing. Prices are returned in both Myanmar Kyat (priceMmk) and the local convention of Lakh (priceLakh, 100,000 MMK). Listings where the seller asks buyers to call land as zero rather than fabricated values.
• 🇲🇲 Myanmar-specific fields. Plate division (YGN, MDY, NPT), plate color (black, red, white), license status (With Licence, No Slip, CIF Only), and steering position are first-class fields. Township and state come from the seller location.
• 🖼️ Full image gallery. When detail fetching is enabled, every image URL from the photo gallery is captured, not just the cover thumbnail.
• 📞 Seller contact and type. Dealer name, phone number, seller type (Dealer, Private seller, Showroom, Buyer), and verified flag come straight from the listing.

Each record bundles imageUrl, title, url, lotNumber, condition, manufacturer, model, trim, year, priceMmk, priceLakh, priceCurrency, mileageKm, mileageRange, transmission, fuelType, buildType, color, enginePowerCc, steeringPosition, licenceStatus, plateDivision, plateColor, plateNumber, numberOfOwners, exchangeable, township, state, country, sellerName, sellerType, sellerContact, sellerVerified, sellerAvatar, imageCount, imageUrls, description, viewsCount, postedAt, updatedAt, and a scrapedAt timestamp. The dataset is downloadable in CSV, Excel, JSON, JSONL, RSS, HTML, and XML formats.

💡 Why it matters: Myanmar imposes some of the strictest used-car import rules in the world (year caps, engine-size caps, plate quotas) and pricing reflects the resulting scarcity. A dataset you can refresh on a schedule lets you spot price swings, dealer turnover, and licensing-status shifts within hours, not at the end of the quarter when your spreadsheet is already stale.

⚙️ Input

Field	Type	Required	Description
startUrls	array of URLs	no	Optional CarsDB URLs to scrape directly. Accepts either detail URLs (https://www.carsdb.com/en/car-listings/2008-chevrolet-mw-786676) or filtered search URLs (https://www.carsdb.com/en/car-listings/search/Toyota?models=Wish). When set, the filters below are ignored.
maxItems	integer	no	Cap on the number of listings to push. Free plan caps at 10. Paid plans can go up to 1,000,000.
query	string	no	Free-text search across title, make, model, trim, and lot number. Example: hilux surf, e-class.
manufacturers	array (enum)	no	Pick one or more car makes from the full 114-entry list. Empty matches every brand.
modelQuery	string	no	Restrict to a specific model name. Use together with manufacturers for tightest matches.
states	array (enum)	no	Filter by Myanmar state or division: Yangon, Mandalay, Nay Pyi Taw, Bago, plus the 11 others.
buildTypes	array (enum)	no	Body type filter: Sedan, SUV, Hatchback, Pick up Truck, Stationwagon, MPV (Minivan), plus 12 commercial-vehicle types.
fuelTypes	array (enum)	no	Petrol, Diesel, Electric, or CNG.
transmissions	array (enum)	no	Auto, Manual, or Semi-Auto.
colors	array (enum)	no	25 exterior colors including dual-tone and Myanmar-specific variants like Pearl White and Slate Blue.
condition	string (enum)	no	Used Car or Brand New Car. Empty matches both.
steeringPosition	string (enum)	no	Right Hand Drive (most stock) or Left Hand Drive (rare imports).
sellerTypes	array (enum)	no	Filter by Dealer, Private seller, Showroom, or Buyer-looking.
licenceStatus	array (enum)	no	With Licence, No Slip, or CIF Only (freshly imported, not yet plated). Myanmar-specific.
yearFrom / yearTo	integer	no	Inclusive model-year range.
priceLakhFrom / priceLakhTo	integer	no	Price range in Lakh MMK (1 Lakh = 100,000 MMK). 100 Lakh equals roughly USD 4,800 at the current grey-market rate.
sortBy	string (enum)	no	Sort order: date posted, price, year, or mileage. Pick newest-first by default.
includeDetails	boolean	no	When true (default), the Actor fetches each listing detail page to enrich the record with description, view count, owner count, and the full image gallery. Disable to skip those 4 fields and run roughly 5x faster.
locale	string (enum)	no	Language for detail-page enrichment text (en or my for Burmese). Listing-card data is identical across locales.
proxyConfiguration	object	no	Defaults to Apify proxy. CarsDB does not block scrapers and the Algolia backend has no IP rate limit, so the default works in nearly every case.

Example: scrape the 50 newest Toyota listings in Yangon, with full details.

{
  "manufacturers": ["Toyota"],
  "states": ["Yangon Division"],
  "sortBy": "dateNewest",
  "maxItems": 50,
  "includeDetails": true
}

Example: cheapest SUVs under 200 Lakh MMK with a clean license, free preview run.

{
  "buildTypes": ["SUV"],
  "priceLakhTo": 200,
  "licenceStatus": ["With Licence"],
  "sortBy": "priceLowest",
  "maxItems": 10
}

⚠️ Good to Know: CarsDB lists prices in Lakh (1 Lakh = 100,000 MMK). When a seller posts "price on request" the listing carries priceLakh: 0 rather than a fabricated value, so always check before sorting by price. Detail-page fetching runs in series at the start to be polite to the storefront. If a detail page fails the record is still pushed with the Algolia card data intact.

	Capability
⚡	Algolia-fast pagination. Listing pages come from the same search index the storefront uses, so 1,000 records arrive in under a minute. No browser, no proxy gymnastics.
🇲🇲	Myanmar-native fields. Plate division, plate color, license status, and Lakh pricing match the conventions Yangon and Mandalay dealers actually use.
🌐	Right-hand-drive coverage. Myanmar is one of the few large RHD markets still importing freely. The catalog includes 16,000+ Toyota, Honda, Suzuki, Nissan units priced in MMK.
🖼️	Full image gallery. Cover plus every gallery photo is captured, not just the listing thumbnail. Useful for visual de-dup, AI image classification, and dealer competitor monitoring.
🧮	Dual currency surface. Prices are stored as both priceMmk (e.g. 55,000,000) and priceLakh (e.g. 550), so spreadsheets, dashboards, and APIs can pick whichever scale matches their existing data.
🔍	18 filter dimensions. Make, model, year, price, mileage, build type, fuel, transmission, color, plate division, license status, condition, steering, and seller type all combine with AND.
🧪	Two-mode capture. Pick listing-card data only (16 fields, runs at API speed) or enable detail enrichment for description, view count, owner count, and full gallery (41 fields).

📊 The Algolia index reports 18,901 live listings as of 2026-05-20, refreshed continuously by dealers across all 14 Myanmar states and divisions.
