The used car market remains dynamic and resilient both globally and in Turkey. Despite economic fluctuations, high inflation in some regions, and changing consumer preferences, the sector continues to generate strong sales volumes.
In Europe and the United States, used car sales maintained steady growth throughout 2025. SUVs and hatchbacks remain the most in-demand segments due to their practicality and fuel efficiency. In addition, compact city cars continue to attract price-sensitive buyers. One of the most notable trends is the rapid growth of used electric and hybrid vehicles. As new electric vehicle production increases, more EVs are entering the second-hand market, making them more accessible to average consumers.
In Turkey, while listing prices have shown a real-term decline when adjusted for inflation, transaction volumes have reached record levels. This indicates that the market is active and liquid. Buyers are becoming increasingly selective, carefully reviewing vehicle history reports, mileage, accident records, maintenance documentation, and warranty coverage before making a purchase.
