Data sources & licenses
Carspecy combines catalog data, source-based research and buyer-facing analysis. This page credits the identified catalog datasets and provides the notices for our runtime software.
cardata.wiki — vehicle specifications
Data sourced from cardata.wiki, available under CC BY 4.0. See the source's data license terms.
Carspecy adapts imported data: we normalize identities and units, match model generations and engines, reconcile duplicates and apply catalog corrections. The source does not endorse Carspecy. Its data comes without a guarantee of accuracy; confirm important details with the seller, vehicle documents and a qualified inspection.
auto-parts-db — catalog reference data
Catalog reference matching uses auto-parts-db by lifeofcapo. Our locked version is 2.0.0, distributed under the MIT License. Carspecy normalizes and matches reference identities. The full installed copyright and license notice is retained below.
Research and other references
Individual reports identify their retained research sources where available. A source citation is a reference to supporting evidence; it does not transfer ownership of that source's articles, images or other protected material. The catalog licenses above apply to their respective imported datasets, not every page used during report research.
Names, software and Carspecy material
Vehicle and manufacturer names identify the vehicles being discussed. Carspecy is an independent service and does not claim endorsement by the manufacturers or dataset providers. Runtime open-source notices are provided in the linked notice file. These dataset licenses do not license the entire Carspecy application or every Carspecy report under CC BY 4.0.
