Used-car asking prices in Qatar held flat 0.2% between 14 September 2026 and 21 September 2026, measured across 2,198 matched cohorts — the same model, year and trim compared between two readings of the market. That is in step with the 30-day read (−1.0% across 2,077 cohorts).
In the seven days to 21 September 2026, 2,958 new listings appeared while 2,914 cars were confirmed or likely sold: roughly as many cars left as arrived, so the market is in balance. The live catalogue stands at 33,103 active listings. On the last 90 days, the typical car takes about 14 days to sell (an estimate from observed removals, not confirmed sales).
Kia (+0.7%), Lexus (+0.5%), BMW (+0.3%) firmed, while GMC (−1.6%), Chevrolet (−1.4%), Ford (−0.7%) softened — moves among the largest makes are measured on matched cohorts only, so a make with fewer than ten is never quoted.
The biggest cut in the seven days to 21 September 2026: Chevrolet Malibu for sale, from QAR 14,500 to QAR 12,500 (−13.8%) against a typical QAR 16,100 for its cohort. The table below lists the 5 largest drops observed over seven days.
The fastest-selling models over the last 30 days: Toyota Land Cruiser (1,120), Nissan Patrol (386), Lexus LX 570 (228) — sales are observed removals classed as confirmed or likely sold, not dealer-reported figures.
For a buyer: no urgency either way — use each cohort's typical price as the negotiating anchor, and always inspect before you buy.

How these numbers are made
This note is published automatically every week from the listings we collect: the price index compares each matched cohort's median asking price (same model, year and trim) between two readings; sales are observed removals classed as confirmed or likely sold; cuts are changes to a listing's own asking price. A week without enough data is not published, and a note is never edited after it goes out.
