Used Car Market Key Names Behind the Market Boom
The global used car market is undergoing a steady transformation, driven by shifting economic factors, evolving consumer behaviors, and digital innovation.

BriefingWire.com, 8/01/2025 - The global used car market was valued at approximately $1.90 trillion in 2024. Projections indicate it will grow to around $2.70 trillion by 2030, with a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 6.0% between 2025 and 2030. This growth is being fueled by a confluence of economic shifts, evolving consumer preferences, and technological advancements.

As the prices of new cars continue to climb, a growing number of consumers are opting for used cars as a more affordable alternative. This trend has been particularly notable since the COVID-19 pandemic, which caused disruptions in new car supply chains and led to inventory shortages. Consequently, the demand for pre-owned vehicles has surged, as consumers seek reliable and budget-friendly options. The increasing prevalence of remote work and other lifestyle changes has also influenced purchasing decisions, with people seeking vehicles that align with their new routines. Furthermore, the rise of online platforms for buying and selling used cars has made the process more convenient and transparent, providing consumers with a wider selection of vehicles.
