Fastest Selling Used Cars of 2022

If you’ve been paying attention to the used car market, you know it’s been wild lately. The ongoing chip shortage has disrupted new car production, supercharging demand for used vehicles. Many consumers are looking for less expensive options or can’t find what they’re looking for on new car dealer lots. This has led to higher prices and faster selling used cars across the board, but some models are faring better than others.

Interestingly, the list of fastest-selling used cars for 2022 looks quite different than last year. In fact, there are only a few popular holdovers from the previous years’ lists. So if you’re in the market for a used car, which models should you be on the lookout for? Here are some of the fastest-selling used cars of 2022 based on data from Yahoo. There’s a good mix of SUVs and sedans represented, so there’s bound to be something for everyone.

Tesla Model Y

The Tesla Model Y electric crossover is the new kid on the block, and it’s already making waves in the used car market. The earliest delivery time for a new Tesla Model Y is January 2023 for the base model and August 2022 for the performance version, so a used vehicle is currently your only option if you’re looking to get hold of one anytime soon. The long wait time for the new Model Y is likely a big factor in its strong showing on this list.

With an average selling time of just 24.9 days, the Model Y is the fastest-selling used car of 2022 so far. It’s also the most expensive car on this list, with an average used price of $69,784. Among the reasons for its popularity are its excellent range (up to 330 miles on a single charge), impressive performance (zero to 60 mph in just over three seconds), and high-tech features (like autonomous driving). The Model Y is a hit with used car buyers and is set to become more popular in the coming months.

Toyota Prius Prime

Toyota’s hybrid offerings have always been popular with used car buyers, and the Prius Prime is no exception. The plug-in hybrid electric vehicle has a starting price of just over $31,867, making it one of the more affordable cars on this list. It also has excellent fuel economy (54 mpg combined) and a solid range (25 miles on electric power alone) — both big selling points for used car buyers.

With an average selling time of just 25.1 days, the Prius Prime is the second fastest-selling used car of 2022. It’s also one of the most fuel-efficient cars in the hybrid car class, but that’s not the only reason it’s so popular. Thanks to its poised handling and abundance of cargo space, the Prius Prime is an excellent choice for drivers who want a hybrid car that’s also practical.

Ford Mustang Mach-E

The Mustang Mach-E is Ford’s first electric SUV, and it’s proved quite popular with used car buyers. It’s sleek, stylish, and fast, making it a great choice for anyone looking for an electric SUV with some serious street cred. It has an average selling time of 26.8 days and a starting price of $60,881, making it the third fastest-selling used car of 2022.

The Mach-E has a range of up to 300 miles on a single charge and can go from zero to 60 mph in just over three seconds. Plus, it has plenty of cargo space and a comfortable interior, making it ideal for families. Ford recently stopped taking orders for new Mach-E SUVs after wait times for the vehicle stretched over 32 weeks, so if you’re looking for one, your best bet is to buy a used one.

Toyota Prius

The Toyota Prius was the world’s first mass-produced hybrid passenger car, and it’s still one of the most popular hybrid cars on the market. It’s no surprise, then, that the Prius is among the fastest-selling used cars of 2022. Fourth on the list, with an average selling time of 27.0 days and a starting price of $28,029 used, the Prius is a great choice for drivers who want excellent fuel economy (58 mpg combined) and a spacious interior.

Despite being one of the oldest cars on this list (Toyota first introduced it in 1997), the Prius remains a popular choice thanks to its low emissions, fuel efficiency, and reliability. Even better, the Prius is often one of the most affordable hybrid cars on the used car market, making it an ideal choice for budget-conscious buyers. So if you’re looking for a hybrid car that’s affordable and reliable, the Prius is a great choice.

Tesla Model 3

Again, we see a Tesla on the list, and this time it’s the Model 3 — Tesla’s more affordable sedan, with a starting price of $52,216 used. With an average selling time of 27.7 days, it’s the fifth fastest-selling used car of 2022. The Model 3 is popular with used car buyers for several reasons. First, it’s a Tesla, so it has that cool factor many are looking for. Second, it’s relatively affordable compared with other Tesla models. Lastly, it has a range of up to 272 miles on a single charge.

This puppy is quick, too, with a zero to 60 mph time of just over three seconds. So if you’re on the hunt for an affordable, fast, and stylish sedan, the Tesla Model 3 is sure to fit the bill.
