Custom / partial database

Contact me for a quote if you want to buy custom selection of columns, makes, years, or body type. Custom subsets won’t let you download updates unless you ask me to send you updates, but are good for one-time use, for example to decide what used car to buy, or academic project.

Electric/hybrid subset I added in 2019 once few customers contacted me saying asking for subset because their business do not deal with internal combustion engines, but this seems to cause confusion now, some people thinks that first 6 packages are only for gasoline cars and contact me to ask if should buy 2 separate databases to get all cars. WRONG, original 6 packages contain ALL cars including electric ones.

Pre-1990 cars are available in Year-Make-Model without trims or specifications. Based on Wikipedia, it include also cars sold in Canada 1945-present.

Year-Make-Model-Trim-Specs is the best car database for people angry when a popular API closed in 2018 or tired of CarQueryAPI’s missing cars, I sourced most fields from most famous American car website, added 4 extra fields by myself, did few improvements in model hierarchy and created an Excel database with completeness and accuracy having no equivalent on internet. Full changelog.

Complete for all cars, trucks, SUVs and minivans sold in United States from Model Year 1990 to present. Canada-specific cars are NOT included in this database. See list of models included, useful if you are foreigner and want to see if this database cover your country market.

They apparently changed source of data from MY 2001 onward. Specifications are consistent before and after but certain info is available starting from MY 2001 and hierarchy is different, for example Mercedes C43 AMG was listed as separate model until MY 2000 and as trim under C-Class for MY 2001. I manually improved hierarchy to fix these issues. European exotic manufacturers are missing in 1990-2000.

Cars are sorted by make and model alphabetically, by year new to old, then by trim from low to high. Feel free to re-sort models or years, avoid re-sorting trims when importing in your application.

Data fields included with % available

Percentages calculated at 1 October 2022 update for 2001-2023 model years (54310 trims, out of 67032 total trims 1990-2023), because italic fields are NOT available for 1990-2000 models and would have screwed up percentages, while most customers deal with cars 10-20 years old max so don’t care about missing data in older cars.
