Cars, motorcycles, boats & tires in one API
Advanced Vehicle API
The Advanced Vehicle API unifies four datasets — cars, motorcycles, boats and tires — behind a single required type switch (car, motorcycle, boat, tire). Browse makes and models, search specs, and resolve OEM/alternate tire fitment, all with one key.
One integration covers multiple vehicle classes: ~560 car configs, ~340 motorcycles, ~310 power boats and ~580 tire fitments. Read-only and edge-served, with a narrowing-query rule and up to 25 rows per call.
Free tier included, no credit card required. One key works across all 49 APIs.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Four datasets in one: cars (~560 configs), motorcycles (~340), power boats (~310) and tire fitments (~580). You pick the dataset with a required type parameter: car, motorcycle, boat or tire.
It is the same data behind one key and one subscription, with a unified browse/search shape. If you only need one vehicle class, the standalone Car, Motorcycle, Boat or Tire APIs are cheaper; the bundle is for products that span multiple classes.
Common filters are make, model, year and q. Type-specific ones: body and fuel (car), category and fuel (boat), category (motorcycle), size (tire). Call /vehicles/v1/types to see the filters for each type.
Yes. /vehicles/v1/tires/by-vehicle?make=&model=&year= returns OEM and alternate sizes for a vehicle, the same as the standalone Tire Size API.
Pass ?apikey=YOUR_API_KEY, or send an X-Api-Key header. One key works across every API Codex API.
