About the Japanese used car market

Japan is one of the largest exporters of used cars. Buyers in right-hand drive countries such as the UK, Kenya, Pakistan and New Zealand, and in many other markets, look for Japanese cars because they are well kept and often have low mileage.

Japanese sites write prices in units of 10,000 yen (万円), give the model year in the Japanese era as well (R1 for 2019) and show the total price with fees (支払総額) next to the car. Our API reads them and gives you whole numbers in JPY.

Next to the home market sites, export sites such as BE FORWARD and SBT Japan list cars already prepared for buyers abroad. Both arrive in the same schema, under one key.
