Study figures are from the 2026-10-02 snapshot; the marketplace count reflects current coverage of this market.
A cohort-matched comparison of asking prices for the same make, model and year across the three markets; the current gap per model, the median spread and the widest gap are published on the Gulf car prices study page.
Explore currently advertised Tank, Haval, Geely, Jetour and BYD vehicles and asking prices. Inventory counts describe the listings we track; they do not establish sales demand or market growth.
Which models leave the market fastest and which linger, measured from confirmed and likely sales among tracked listings; figures appear only where the sample is large enough to be meaningful.
Compare the median asking price by model year for electric vehicles and Gulf favorites like the Toyota Land Cruiser and Nissan Patrol, from live listings: an asking-price view, not a measured depreciation rate.
Each dataset has its own date and cadence: a dated cross-market snapshot, daily sales-velocity estimates and monthly reports. Keep the sample and method with every quoted figure.
News Hook: Saudi Arabia is the most expensive of the three markets for the same used car in 70% of comparisons, and the cheapest in only 12%. The study compares asking prices only; it does not measure depreciation.
News Hook: Sales counts and days-to-sell estimated from how listings leave each marketplace (confirmed sold by the source, or likely sold after filtering out expired ads and relists), separating sales velocity from static asking inventory.
News Hook: Like for like, asking prices of newly listed used cars in Saudi Arabia were 0.4% lower in September than in August (GCC Car Deals Used-Car Price Index) — plus supply, what's selling and where the cheapest prices are.

Editorial brief: Gulf used-car asking-price differences Snapshot dated 2 October 2026: the median gap between the lowest and highest median asking prices was 25% across 264 matched make, model and year comparisons in Qatar, the UAE and Saudi Arabia. Each gap is measured as a percentage of the lowest market median. 83 comparisons have at least 10 cars in every market and a runner-up median at least 3% higher than the lowest median. Lowest-market counts within this subset: Qatar: 36; UAE: 37; Saudi Arabia: 10. This is a subset of the published comparisons, not market share or a statistical significance test. Method: at least 6 distinct priced cars per market; a car advertised on multiple sites counts once. A model-year is excluded if cars labelled new exceed 25% in any market, or if the gap exceeds 80%. Prices are converted to USD at currency pegs. This snapshot is refreshed by hand, not a live series. Limitations: matching is by make, model and year, without adjustments for trim, mileage or condition. Coverage is monitored listings, not every car in the market. These are asking prices, not completed transactions; shipping, taxes, import duties and registration costs are not included. The study does not measure buyer savings, depreciation or the causes of price differences. Source: GCC Car Deals. (2026, October 2).
