Damage

Check for every scratch & dent

Check for every scratch & dent
Around 1 in 2 cars checked on carVertical in South Africa has damage on record. With carVertical’s Damage data, we check over 330 million records to show you exactly where and when it occurred, and what the repairs might cost (if available). If our AI detects damage in recorded photos, that information will also appear in your report, even without an official record.
If the car you're considering has damage on record, better to find out now than after the money's changed hands.

Mileage

Know how far it’s really been

Odometer readings can tell you a lot about a car’s life – but only if they’re accurate.
A wound-back odometer doesn't shave off a few thousand miles: when we find a rollback on a car checked in South Africa, it typically hides around 43,000 kilometers.
With carVertical’s Mileage data, you can easily verify a vehicle’s true mileage, backed by data from 900+ trusted sources across 35 countries like maintenance logs and inspections.

Verified review

Fantastic experience! Thanks to the carVertical report, I avoided buying a car with 63,000 km on the odometer that actually had 218,000. Incredibly useful!

Market price

Make better, data-driven deals

The market can change fast, and guessing a car’s worth can lead to bad deals. Our Market Price model helps you see the price range for similar cars in your market, so you don’t get shortchanged.
Walk into the negotiation knowing what the car is actually worth.

Timeline

Track your car’s history from start to finish

A car’s history can tell you a lot. Our Timeline data lets you follow its journey chronologically – from the day it rolled off the manufacturing line to the present moment – helping you easily identify major events, track changes, and spot any concerning patterns.
Run the check and read the timeline. If something in this car's past is going to bother you, that's where you'll see it.

It’s invaluable to have tools like carVertical. They give you the real story behind a vehicle’s history.

Emissions

Every car has a footprint – find out yours

With a clear Emissions graph that places your vehicle in a class from “A” to “G,” you’ll understand how much CO2 your car produces, its impact on the planet, and any taxes tied to those emissions.
See how green your car really is.

Natural disaster exposure

Learn what storms your car has weathered

Sometimes cars are exposed to extreme weather conditions or natural disasters without it being obvious.
Our Natural disaster exposure data alerts you if the car was in a region impacted by floods or storms at the time, so you can be aware of potential damage, even if it’s not immediately visible.
Flood damage surfaces months later, in the electrics. Check the car's history before you find out that way.

Specs & equipment

Get to know your car inside & out

Our Specs & Equipment data shows you everything, from the car’s technical details like make and model to the original features like navigation and safety systems. This way, you’ll know if everything’s how it should be, or if anything’s missing or swapped out.
Make sure the car you’re buying is exactly as described, without surprises.
