Always know a vehicle’s value with ADESA
CarValue™ is your vehicle valuation guide powered by predictive technology and machine learning. Built on 50+ million ADESA data points and enhanced with third-party sources, it delivers reliable sale price predictions for the current week. It also factors in submarket trends and national values, giving insights at both local and national levels.
CarValue™ provides three key insights to help you evaluate every vehicle: Wholesale Price, Retail Price, and Retail-Bid Spread.
How Retail-Bid Spread works:
Spread = Retail Price – Current Bid Amount (or floor if no bids yet).
As the only wholesale pricing model primarily based on ADESA transactions, CarValue™ is the most relevant and powerful valuation guide for buying and selling with ADESA.
