Automotive Inventory Importer – Sync Car Dealer Feeds

Automotive Inventory Importer — The Easiest Way to Sync Your Dealer Inventory with WordPress

Stop typing car data into your website. Automotive Inventory Importer automatically syncs your vehicle inventory from any XML or CSV feed into WordPress, creating professional listings your customers will love.

Whether you run a used car lot with 10 vehicles or a multi-location dealership with 500+, this plugin handles the heavy lifting so you can focus on selling cars.

No DMS lock-in, no theme lock-in, and no language lock-in: it syncs with any DMS export and works with any WordPress theme.

Speaks Your Language

Set your site language and the plugin follows — the settings screens and the vehicle pages your customers see, all translated. No add-on, no extra download.

• 🇬🇧 English
• 🇮🇹 Italiano — Italian
• 🇩🇪 Deutsch — German, in the formal “Sie” register (works with Deutsch and Deutsch (Sie))
• 🇪🇸 Español — Spanish, in the polite “usted” register
• 🇫🇷 Français — French, in the polite “vous” register
• 🇳🇱 Nederlands — Dutch, in the formal “u” register (works with Nederlands and Nederlands (formeel))
• 🇧🇷 Português do Brasil — Brazilian Portuguese

Your vehicle details are never touched: makes, models, colours and descriptions import exactly as your feed sends them.

With Pro, field matching speaks these languages too. Name your columns Kilometerstand, Kilométrage, Chilometraggio or Quilometragem and the plugin still knows it is the mileage — so setup is one click, not an afternoon of manual mapping. The free version maps fields by hand, in whatever language your feed uses.

No custom development. No DMS lock-in. No coding required. Map your feed once, and the plugin keeps your inventory in sync forever.

Why Dealers and Agencies Choose This Plugin

No DMS Lock-In — Sync With Any DMS Export

Unlike other plugins that tie you to a single provider, this one works with any flat XML or CSV export from any dealer management system — vAuto, HomeNet, Dealer.com, CDK, Reynolds & Reynolds, Tekion, PBS, Frazer, DealerCenter, and dozens more. Our smart field mapping auto-detects your feed’s fields, shows you sample values, and lets you map them to the right places. Map your feed once and you’re done.

Bring Your Own Theme — Works With Any WordPress Theme

The plugin is fully theme-agnostic. It renders beautifully on any WordPress theme and ships its own optional listing and detail templates that adopt your theme’s styling. It also plays nicely alongside popular automotive themes such as Motors (StylemixThemes), Car Dealer, AutoTrader, Listingo, and Wheels — you’re never locked into one look.

Speaks Your Customers’ Language — Multilingual & Translation-Ready

The plugin is fully translation-ready, and complete Italian, German, Spanish, French, Dutch and Brazilian Portuguese translations are included out of the box. The admin settings and the customer-facing vehicle pages it creates display in your site’s language automatically. German and Dutch work whether your site uses the informal or the formal setting. More languages are welcome — anyone can contribute or improve a translation for the free version through the WordPress.org community. (Your imported vehicle data — make, model, descriptions — is always kept exactly as it comes from your feed.)

Bring Your Own Inventory Plugin — Import Into Any Post Type

Already using a dealership theme or inventory plugin? Point the importer at the custom post type your existing setup already uses — such as HivePress, Inventory Presser, the Motors – Car Dealership & Listing plugin, AutoListings, or WP-CarManager — and your feed data flows straight into it, displayed by the tools you already have. Free field mapping is done by hand; Pro adds one-click auto-mapping and ready-made presets for popular dealer plugins.

Built for HivePress

Running your dealership on HivePress? Point the importer at your listings, and with Pro the importer reads the attributes you have already set up on your site — make, model, mileage, fuel, body type, whatever you named them — and matches your feed to them for you. It recognises the names dealer feeds actually use, so a column called Odometer finds your Mileage field and Gearbox finds Transmission. Every match stays editable before you import.

Values your site has not seen before are added as new options, photos land in the listing gallery, and each vehicle is published under your dealer profile. Re-syncing updates the same listings instead of duplicating them.

Compatible With Google, Meta, and Microsoft Vehicle Listing Standards

The plugin imports and stores data using field names compatible with the Google Vehicle Listings feed specification (VIN, make, model, trim, year, mileage, condition, price, image_link, dealership_name, dealership_address). Pro version adds Schema.org Vehicle JSON-LD markup, making your vehicle pages eligible for Google rich results.

Set It and Forget It

Configure your feed URL, map your fields, and choose a sync schedule. The plugin automatically checks for changes and keeps your website in sync with your physical lot. New vehicle on the lot? It appears on your website. Vehicle sold? It’s automatically removed.

Professional Listings Out of the Box

Your vehicles display in a clean, responsive grid with search and filter. Each listing includes an image gallery, formatted pricing, and a detailed specs table. No coding or design skills needed.
