VariantWise

Open data

The data this site runs on, yours to use. 208 models, 1,607 variants, and the road tax tables for 25 states, exported in the same build that renders these pages, so the files cannot lag the site. The car data was updated , and the road tax rates were last verified .

Also mirrored where data people already look: GitHub, Kaggle and Hugging Face. The files here are always the freshest; mirrors follow by release.

How to credit us

Using the data in a story, a notebook or an app? Paste one of these where your readers will see it. Every row of the files also carries a link to its own car, so keep that column if you republish rows.

The licence, in one sentence

Free to use, share and build on, including commercially, with attribution: credit VariantWise and link to https://variantwise.com. Formally it is CC BY 4.0, so commercial use, republication and derived work are all fine. The credit, ready to paste, is under the files.

Where the numbers come from

Every price and specification traces to a source, and when sources disagree the manufacturer’s own site wins, always. Road tax rates carry the instrument they were read from, a confidence grade and the date they were verified. Where we could not verify a figure, it is absent rather than guessed: an empty field is a fact about what we know. The full method is on how we work.

What is not in here

Car photography, because the images are the manufacturers’ property and not ours to license. And nothing invented: if a state or a figure is missing, that is the dataset being honest with you.
