The used car that the entire Netherlands wants cannot be found

Given the rising price of new cars, used cars are becoming very popular. But not every used car is easy to sell. Data from AutomotiveMediaVentions, including AutoTrack and Gaspedal.nl, shows that a Volkswagen is most popular in the Netherlands.

Search queries are used to determine the most popular used car in the Netherlands. All data is from 2023.

The used car that the whole Netherlands wants

On average, people in the Netherlands were looking for a used car for 19,000 to 20,000 euros. However, in December the average search price was 17,400 euros.

However, the most popular used car in the Netherlands is cheaper than the average search price. The used car you’re probably good at selling is a Volkswagen Golf. The favorite color is gray and the hatchback must have five doors. In the Netherlands there is an automatic transmission, then a manual transmission and the fuel must be gasoline.

The mileage is preferably less than 100,000 kilometers. The prize may be a maximum of 15,000 euros. The most popular option for Dutch drivers is, you guessed it: a towbar.

The Volkswagen Golf cannot be found

If we enter all these options except color, we can only find three used cars in the Netherlands. It’s hard to find a gray Volkswagen Golf that meets all the requirements for this budget. It is still unclear whether this is because these used cars are selling out too quickly or because consumers want more than is actually possible for their euro. Autovisie is still waiting for a response from AutomotiveMediaVentions. This article is being updated.
