What is included
Car Models List does include makes model, generations (example: VW Golf IV), platforms (example: BMW E46), chassis code (example: Mercedes W124), also indicating car class and exact years of production for each of them.
Last release: 25 May 2024, full change log.
The Worldwide package include both Worldwide and Europe sheets.
The Europe package include all markets from United Kingdom to Russia and Turkey, does not focus only on Western Europe.
For North America I offer Year-Make-Model with separate record for each Model Year, instead of production years intervals.
If you don’t want separate rows for each Golf I to Golf VII, but only model names, see Car Nameplates List.
For additional details like trim / engine version, see Car Models & Engines Database (Europe) and Year Make Model Trim (United States).
Source of data
Mostly Wikipedia, the most comprehensive car database ever! I manually compiled the list of cars into an Excel database, creating an original product “Made by Teoalida” with no equivalent on internet! Excel allow for easy reading, sort, filter, as well as conversion to CSV and SQL database to be used in web building and mobile app development.
There is also a column for number of units produced, but I was able to find this info for only 11% of total models included in database, mostly exotic cars, so if you are looking for a production figures for all cars, this Car Models List will NOT help you. See instead Car Sales Figures.
Coverage
Complete for World War II – present. All major (and few minor) manufacturers of Europe, United States, Australia, Japan, Korea, Malaysia, India, Brazil, Argentina. China manufacturers I am adding since 2022, but they may never be complete, because on Wikipedia certain manufacturers have red links to individual models (non-existent pages), production year for each model is missing. Other websites are also incomplete or offer contradictory data for chinese cars.
Commercial vehicles under 3.5t are included too. No concept cars, prototypes or custom-made presidential limousines, but only vehicles actually sold on market.
I guarantee 100% completion for cars sold in European and North American markets, plus for the market of the country of origin of each manufacturer. For example the Car Models List may not include any possible cars produced in Korea and sold somewhere else than EU, US, or Korea markets. This because Korea and Japan manufacturers often sell ONE car model under dozens of different names in various countries. There are over 200 countries in the world, making a global world complete database for every country is HARD JOB. But you can contribute!
There is a common practice to launch a car at a major auto show, but start sales (deliveries to customers) few months later, which can fall in next year, thus you may see differences when comparing production years between my database and random websites. If you want more accuracy, you are advised to purchase UK or German car databases, that indicate exact month/year of sales in those countries.
The database does include also ~150 antique cars old as 1900, if they are related with post-war cars, but it is not and will never be complete for pre-war period. Before WW2 the world had over 1000 small manufacturers and the internet do not provide sufficient accurate info to include them.
Because in the recent updates I added too many minor brands / exotic cars that are seen more at museums and collectors than driving on roads, at May 2019 update I also added a column that allow you to delete easily the exotic brands, if you want to have a database with only cars commonly seen on roads.
Example of cars included and marked as minor brands: Cizeta-Moroder (1990s supercar with only 20 units produced), Messerschmitt (cheap 1950s bubble car, 15,000 units produced but most of them been scraped and are not driving anymore), Peel (1960s, 2 models, less than 100 units produced, but famous for Peel P50 which is listed in Guinness book of records as world’s smallest car).

Have viewed your products. Is it possible that you could include the full line of vehicles as in this ebay page. ebay.com/sch/Vintage-Car-Truck-Parts-/10073/i.html But split up to Old cars European, and US and US Canada from the 2000 to 13
Thank you in advance

LOL you contacted me on LIVE CHAT right after you left comment, we talked on chat and you said that want 1896-2013… In one year, you’re just second person who is interested in pre-war cars.
Thanks for eBay link, although I have bought numerous stuff from eBay, it’s the first time I see that car page on eBay website. It’s impressive how they have to 1896.
The single way for me to have a database similar with eBay one is… to steal the eBay one, which is as many others, is FAR AWAY from being complete. Wikipedia says 1800 manufacturers in United States alone. Too many cars were produced before war, NOBODY can make a complete list of them.
Don’t think about mixing European and American cars in that format because the world outside US & Canada DO NOT use the system with Year-Make-Model aka each year on separate row. See the eBay Motors UK, they have only Make-Model, NO YEAR.
If you want to hire me to copy eBay database 1896-2013, I will say NO, because will take 100+ hours which equals with $2000+ by doing other freelance projects.
I will rather spend my time for a high-demanded US SPECS database 1990-2013.
We were looking for a comprehensive UK and Europe car list for a website based in the UK, Teoalida’s EURO car database fit the bill exactly! Thanks Teoalida!
It’s a really complete database, certainly for the money!
Sometimes the platform number / generation number is also in the “model” column besides the model name, this gives some trouble when automatically converting it to a database, depending on how your database is build up
I was adding the Audi S3 and RS3 on top of this database for my website
All in all, very very happy with this!
Keep up the good work!
Until few months ago, ALL platform code / generation number was within Model column, I re-wrote them in a separate column…. and now I noticed that few models I forgot to remove platform code from model name. Thank you for reporting!
Message from chat with another customer from 18 february:
In the sample, Volkswagen Voyage is sold as North America as Volkswagen Fox. We do prefer to have all the names that the model has separated by /. For example, I noticed a sample data that contains multiple model names, i.e. Kia Carnival / Sedona. The user can still find Kia Sedona but that is not the case with Volkswagen Voyage (G1), sold in North America as Fox. I think you are correct and we will most likely want the World Wide Data with the country of origin column.
Probably I should do the same in case of S4, RS4, M3, etc.
Hello,
I’m sorry but this database is not good. This database is in bulk. Need: One model in one row!
Example (good datbase):
– Chevrolet; Lacetti
– Chevrolet; Nubira
etc..
They are wrong (example bad datbase):
(1525) Mazda; MX-5 / Miata / Eunos Roadster;
(1568) Mercedes; W120, W121 “Ponton”
(1572) Mercedes; W110, W111, W112, “Fintail”
(1704) Mitsubishi; Pajero / Montero / Shogun
etc
Please correct the problem or I can not use the database.
Thanks
You think that this database is not good but actually Car Models List is the BEST SELLING database made by me… people love this format especially the ones in auto parts industry, as parts are the same for those models sold under multiple names in different countries so they need to be on same row.
When you were on LIVE CHAT I saw you being confused which database to purchase and you did not explained clearly what do you need. If you wanted each name on separate row you should have bought https://www.teoalida.com/cardatabase/car-nameplates-list/ instead.
Hi,
I would just like to know if it possible for me to get a example of the template just to just to see if it is the type of template im looking for as im sure your template is different know and as i am from south africa, i would like the template to show south african cars which is mainly European cars but we also have ford and Chevrolet but would also like a templete that shows the generation year of the car so i know exactly when what car and model was made from what to what year. Also would like this info in 1 line like the picture is showing on your website.
Thank you
Your comment is confusing
“to see if it is the type of template im looking for as im sure your template is different” – mine is different than WHAT?
“we also have ford and Chevrolet” – you think that Ford is not European? Actually Ford have subsidiaries in US, UK/Germany, Australia, South Africa and Argentina, each with own model lineup.
Thanks a lot for your post. I’d really like to write my opinion that the cost of car insurance varies greatly from one insurance policy to another, given that there are so many different facets which play a role in the overall cost. By way of example, the make and model of the vehicle will have an enormous bearing on the fee. A reliable ancient family automobile will have a more economical premium when compared to a flashy fancy car.
Do you have any video of that? I’d wantt to find out more details.

Hi I need a car data base that has the following information make, model, trim, generation code, years of production from to, number of cyl, engine capacity, transmission and fuel type. Put in mind this data base will be used for An Australian website
Check Australia page… https://www.teoalida.com/cardatabase/australia/ and if you want a custom package with only the columns you mentioned, let me know!
Yes please make me a custom data base of thoese information please make sure that it’s not messy, or misleading
Also add the body shape. And when can you finish it?
Actually I’m happy to take the big data base if you can just add the years of production from to and Can you send me your contact details if you have Skype or email?
If you would clicked Contact page you would have seen to use LIVE CHAT so we can discuss quickly, understand what do you need and negotiate price. Even if I personally prefer production year ranges, all possible sources of data for Australia have each year on separate row.
The link that you have sent through for live chat is not working is there any other way that I can contact you
Live chat is working because every day 10 people contact me and I do many sales. Do you have javascript disabled? DON’T SEE live chat bar in lower-left of screen?
Even though dynamic website are normal today be sure to determine
what platform will be used and if the Content Management System is appropriate and straightforward to use.
If you need it tidied up, it’s almost guaranteed that
they’re able to help you however it offers a good starting point.
The key to increasing business at your new job is developing quality products.
Hello
I need a car database of UK cars that has make model . And picture of registration number that matches the cars.
Incidentally few min after you posted comment I posted update for Car Models List and edited the page.
Not sure what do you mean with picture of registration number, but see https://www.teoalida.com/cardatabase/uk/ small database does contain make, model, picture.
Dear Teoalida,
I’m Bruno Messina and I attend Marketing Management course in Bocconi University. I’m doing a project for a Predictive course about used cars, I need to have a complete list of car models in the world and I would like to use your dataset. Could you, please, send for free the very interesting Car Models List that I’ve seen in Your site?
Best regards!
“please, send for free” sorry but a database that took dozens hours of work cannot be given for free regardless you are a student or business. You contacted me via LIVE CHAT too and said that will consult with your colleagues and purchase it… hope we will make a deal.
Really great service and excellent support to get me to the correct database for my needs despite this being cheaper than the original version i was looking for. I was skeptical about downloading from an unknown site but so glad I did “CAR MODELS LIST – Europe Version”
Thanks

I have checked in the sample XLS. KIA XCEED Model is missing !
You posted this comment AFTER we talked over LiveChat and explained you, what is the scope of this comment?
Is normal to find differences when comparing websites that are not using same database. Read more: https://www.teoalida.com/cardatabase/interoperability/

ceed is a different model
Teoalida (Wed, 7/7/2021, 06:33:09 pm)
Wikipedia don’t have a separate page for Xceed, that’s why my database is like this
alain (Wed, 7/7/2021, 06:33:18 pm)
mmm
alain (Wed, 7/7/2021, 06:33:46 pm)
i compared with a car website to see the differences
Teoalida (Wed, 7/7/2021, 06:33:54 pm)
if I were to add this, I probably need to add BMW M3 separately from 3-Series too?
Teoalida (Wed, 7/7/2021, 06:34:15 pm)
or maybe separate rows for 3-Series saloon, touring, coupe, cabrio?
Teoalida (Wed, 7/7/2021, 06:35:00 pm)
if you need at THIS level of details you can simply buy https://www.teoalida.com/cardatabase/car-models-dimensions/
alain (Wed, 7/7/2021, 06:35:55 pm)
Xceed is not a sub model of CEED

ah sorry
alain (Wed, 7/7/2021, 06:40:05 pm)
it is there with é
Teoalida (Wed, 7/7/2021, 06:40:10 pm)
Wikipedia is not incomplete but multiple models share same page if are too similar
Teoalida (Wed, 7/7/2021, 06:40:50 pm)
same about https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ford_F-Series … if you search Ford F150 it redirects to this page
Teoalida (Wed, 7/7/2021, 07:13:42 pm Europe/Bucharest)
but just curious, are you using some automatic software to compare?
Teoalida (Wed, 7/7/2021, 07:14:10 pm)
because any human eye could find Cadillac Allanté with and without é
Teoalida (Wed, 7/7/2021, 07:14:16 pm)
I add Xceed for next update
hi, i need all company car database in csv file. if possible please contact me [email protected] and 9971300603
Hello, current version of this database is little old, no current generations for BMW M3, BMW M4, Chevrolet Blazer etc. Will you post update soon?
I started an update in March adding 20 new models in Car Models List and the plan was to do an update for Car Nameplates List too and publish both at same time, but because of urgent problems in my personal life I had to put all business ON HOLD. Now the time came to do the main yearly update of Year-Make-Model for American market too, will update all 3 when I get enough time.
Hello,
Can you please add the number of cylinders to the German Basic Specs Excel spreadsheet.
Thank you very much for your time
The number of cylinders was quickly added to the database and I am 100% satisfied with the results.
This database is very complete and accurate and will continue to use it.
Keep up the good work
Thank you very much
