How to use Yahoo Autos endpoints

Crawlora's Yahoo Autos endpoints turn autos.yahoo.com's public pages into JSON: a homepage feed, ten section feeds, and full articles. Yahoo Autos is mostly an aggregator. In a 12-article sample on 2026-09-18, the original publishers were motoring and EV outlets such as InsideEVs, Autoblog, SlashGear, and The Cool Down, not Yahoo's own staff. A second pull on 2026-10-27 showed the home feed returning 62 items with category labels such as ev-and-future-tech.

1. Step 1

   Pick a section feed

   /yahoo-autos/category takes one of ten sections: new-vehicles-and-reviews, ev-and-future-tech, safety-and-recalls, classic-and-collector, deals-and-buying-guides, ownership, auto-shows, people-and-culture, policy-and-environment, or general. Each page returns about 50 stories, and pagination.next_page gives the next page number. safety-and-recalls is the feed to watch for recall coverage, with headlines such as Jeep recalls of Wagoneer and Grand Cherokee models.

2. Step 2

   Know what the homepage mixes

   /yahoo-autos/home returned 62 stories on 2026-09-18. New-vehicle reviews (21) and classic-and-collector pieces (13) led the mix, ahead of EV coverage (10). Use the homepage for what Yahoo is promoting, and use the section feeds for complete coverage.

3. Step 3

   Open articles and credit the source

   Pass an autos.yahoo.com URL to /yahoo-autos/article. The response carries the paragraphs, author, published_at and updated_at, a section label (for example EV and future tech), vehicle-level keywords such as F-150 Lightning or Silverado EV, and provider, which names the outlet the story was syndicated from. Sampled bodies ran from 165 to 1,672 words, with a median of about 540.

4. Step 4

   Use category labels from home

   home returned 62 items; the first, about a two-speed transmission for electric motorcycles, had category ev-and-future-tech and a URL under autos.yahoo.com/ev-and-future-tech/articles/. Pass the label to the category route and page with page.

5. Step 5

   Keep ids as strings

   Ids look like 034417526 with a leading zero, so store them as text.
