Data from the recently rebranded Cazana, shown exclusively to Car Dealer, shows that the month’s biggest rising used cars in terms of retail prices were a mixture of petrol, hybrids, diesels and even one EV.
At the three-year age, average prices of the Mazda 3 mild-hybrid were up 10%, or £1,544 – it was the highest riser of the month.
Interestingly, even the 10 largest fallers of the month were a mixture of all fuel types, too.
The full lists are below.
As reported by Car Dealer last week, average February used car retail prices saw a strong – but expected – rise of 1.7%, or £340.
The surprises of the month were average EV prices rising by 1.4%, and more niche body styles like estates, saloons and MPVs all posting strong increases.
Commenting on the Cazana data, automotive consultant Derren Martin said (in the video posted at the top of this story): ‘Across all of the age brackets dealers have been putting some prices up – not dramatically, but taking advantage of that extra demand. It’s been a good month for the dealers.’
