How Car Valuation Works: What Affects Your Car’s Price

By Seema Dahiya

Ever wondered how a buyer arrives at a price for your car? It’s not guesswork. A fair valuation considers several clear factors.

Key factors in a valuation

  • Make, model and variant
  • Manufacture year and age
  • Kilometres driven
  • Number of previous owners
  • Overall condition and service history
  • Current market demand for the model

Why transparency matters

Some buyers quote a high price, then chip away with “hidden deductions” during inspection. A fair buyer explains exactly how the number is reached — no last-minute surprises.
