Like for like, the asking prices of used cars newly listed in Saudi Arabia in August 2026 were 0.2% higher than in July 2026 (90% range: 0.3% lower to 0.8% higher), according to the GCC Car Deals Used-Car Price Index (100.2; July 2026 = 100). Without the adjustment for a month of ageing, asking prices for the same model years were 0.5% lower. The range includes zero, so the month is best read as little changed.

Toyota leads supply by a clear margin with about 2,924 listings (17.5% of active listings), ahead of Hyundai at roughly 1,987. Most listings are SUVs, about 40.6% of the market, then sedans.

When the same car appears on more than one marketplace, Dubizzle Saudi posted the lowest price in 55.6% of the 1,130 cars it competed on, ahead of OpenSooq (52.5%) — so cross-checking a few sources before you buy still pays.

Zooming in on the last few days, Chevrolet Captiva firmed up while Haval Jolion softened the most — the movers tables below have the full picture.

Methodology

From our own historical price panel: we snapshot the median price and listing count for each model-year cohort daily across several Saudi Arabia marketplaces, which gives the supply, brand, body-type, marketplace and recent-mover figures in this report. The price movement is the GCC Car Deals Used-Car Price Index instead: it compares the asking prices of used cars newly listed in each month like for like (same marketplace, make, model, model year and trim family), adjusted for mileage and a month of ageing, with July 2026 = 100. Every figure comes from our aggregated listings; the index is a statistical estimate and is published with its 90% range. As of 25 August 2026.
