Last update: 14 February 2024, including 3120 cars launched 2023 and 1522 cars launched in 2024. Most models are being added 1-3 months in advance, some electric/hybrid models are added even a year before deliveries start.

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.
Coverage
Passenger cars and commercial vehicles (LKW = Lastkraftwagen) up to 3.5 tons sold in Germany, the most diversified car market in the world. 95-99% cars sold in European Union and 90-95% of cars sold in United Kingdom, Russia, Turkey, etc, are included in Germany car database.
Example of cars sold in (Eastern) Europe but not in Germany: old Dacia and Skoda models, some Lada models, Moskwitch, GAZ, UAZ, ZAZ, FSO, Zastava.
Oldest car included is Volkswagen Kafer / Beetle from 1946, but bulk coverage start at 1970s. See SAMPLE file > Statistics Makes for number of models by brand and year.
New cars only include only rows with “model series end” empty, removing all models that ended production.
Electric/hybrid subset I added in 2019 once few customers told me that 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.
