Top 5 Best-Selling Used Cars in India in 2022

The used car market in India is growing rapidly and there has been a surge in the demand for used cars in the last few years. Let us first try and understand what a used car is.

Used Car

A used car or a secondhand car is a vehicle that had at least one owner in the past. The price of a used car will vary depending on the make, model, year and condition of the car.

Let us look at some important reasons why people buy used cars instead of a new car.

You save money as you have to pay less than the original value of the car.

When driving you are tension-free as you are not worried about getting the first dent or scratch in your car.

There can be no cheating as the buyers can get certified used cars with warranty.

Every car undergoes depreciation but a used car depreciates at a slower rate when compared to a brand new car.

Getting insurance for a used car costs less when compared to the insurance costs for a new car.

The auto industry is changing rapidly. New cars are being introduced by the manufacturers and the prices of the latest models are higher when compared to the base model. New cars are getting costlier with every passing year and the common man is not able to afford them.

If we analyze the data of the latest cars being introduced, we will find that the average lifespan of a car is drastically going down despite the rising costs.

This is where the availability of used cars in the market brings some good news for the common man. The auto manufacturing giants are busy launching newer versions of their models much sooner now, as compared to a few years ago. There are more modern cars entering the used car market now which makes it easy for people with a tight budget to buy a car.

A used car is purchased more by people who are buying a car for the first time and are upgrading from a two wheeler or public transport to a second set of wheels.

Let us have a look at the Top 5 Used Cars from 2022
