Cargurus Dealer Plans Pricing
CarGurus does not sell metered API access. The developer APIs are unlocked as part of a dealer or partner relationship, and access credentials (appId and authToken) are issued by CarGurus. The Car Selector API is open and requires no credentials. Commercial value flows through CarGurus dealer subscription packages (listing visibility, analytics, lead tools) and partner integration agreements, both of which are quote-based and not publicly listed - CarGurus operates a published Dealer Pricing Policy but does not disclose per-tier monthly rates. Figures below are structural, not reconciled dollar amounts.
