What Is SGCarMart.com?

SGCarMart.com is Singapore's most popular automotive marketplace, listing thousands of used, new, and parallel-imported vehicles. The platform is a primary reference for buyers, dealers, and analysts tracking Singapore's unique car market — shaped by COE (Certificate of Entitlement) pricing, vehicle depreciation, and strict registration regulations.

Manually collecting listing data is impractical at scale. The SGCarMart Car Search Scraper automates extraction from search result pages, delivering clean, structured records ready for analysis.

How to Use

1. Build your target URL — Use SGCarMart's search filters (brand, price, body type, fuel type) and copy the resulting URL.
2. Configure input — Paste URLs into the urls array. Adjust max_items_per_url based on the number of results per page (typically 20–50).
3. Enable fault tolerance — Keep ignore_url_failures: true for multi-URL runs.
4. Run and export — Download results as JSON, CSV, or Excel.

Best practices:

• Paginate by modifying the page= parameter across multiple URLs to cover full search results.
• Use filter parameters (e.g., ?mkn=Toyota&bdy=Sedan) to scope extraction to specific segments.
• If a URL returns no results, verify the search filters return visible listings when opened in a browser.
