Before you buy
What exactly is in the dataset?
One row for every vehicle variant sold in Australia, for every year it was listed, from 1990 to 2026: 133,279 rows across 125 makes and 1,543 models - passenger cars, SUVs, utes, vans, light commercials and heavy trucks. Each row has 27 columns, including the NVIC, year, make, model, variant, series, body, doors, transmission, gears, fuel, engine size, cylinders, drive, market, retail and trade values, kerb weight, length and release month.
Is it really a one-off payment?
Yes. You pay $149 AUD once. There is no subscription and nothing renews. You keep the files for life, and every update we publish is included at no extra cost.
How often is it updated?
A new release is published every 6 months with the latest models and variants. Owners are emailed when it is ready and download it from their account. The current release is 2026.11, published 8 November 2026.
Which file formats do I get?
All four: CSV (opens in anything), a formatted Excel workbook with filters and a data dictionary sheet, a SQL Server script that creates and fills the table, and JSON for apps and APIs. Every format has exactly the same rows and columns.
Can I see the data before I buy?
Yes. The free samples contain every year and variant of 100 models with every column, in all four formats - no sign-up needed. Every make, model and year also has its own page on this site listing its variants.
What is an NVIC?
The National Vehicle Identification Code is the short code the Australian motor industry - insurers, financiers, dealers and valuers - uses to identify one exact vehicle variant in one year. Every row in the dataset carries its NVIC, so you can match against quotes, policies and finance systems.
Can I use it in my website, app or business?
Yes. Use it inside your organisation and in the websites, apps, systems and reports you build, including commercial products - for example a year-make-model selector, a quote form or a pricing model. What you can't do is resell or republish the dataset itself. The licence page spells it out.
How do I get the files after paying?
Checkout is by Stripe. The moment the payment goes through, your account unlocks and the download buttons appear - and a receipt with the link is emailed to you.
Do I get a receipt or invoice?
Yes. A receipt is in your account straight away, and Stripe emails an invoice you can add your ABN to at checkout.
What if a file is faulty?
Tell us and we will fix it or refund you - your rights under the Australian Consumer Law always apply. Because the data is delivered instantly, we don't offer change-of-mind refunds; that's why the free samples show you exactly what you get.
