How is the market value of a car determined?


The market value of a car is determined by:

  • The demand for that particular make and model — If the supply of a particular car model exceeds the demand, its value will decrease. The value will increase if demand is high and the supply is limited. 
  • The vehicle’s condition — A car in excellent condition will generally have a higher market value than a car in poor condition.
  • Car mileage — The higher a car’s mileage, the lower its market value. 
  • Local market conditions — Sales data of similar cars, including prices and conditions, can give an idea of the market value.
