✦ Market Analysis

Land Rover and full-size US SUVs show steepest Saudi used-car price gaps

Saudi listings skew Toyota/Hyundai, but the standout is a 2022 Defender priced ~71.6k SAR below typical—worth checking. Price index dipped 1.27% over 7 days.

  • Toyota leads listings at 27%, yet none of the top price gaps are Toyotas.
  • Full-size US SUVs (Yukon, Tahoe) show 25-36% gaps below typical prices.
  • Private sellers dominate at 66%, which may explain wider price dispersion.

Buyer tip: Target 2022 Defender or Yukon listings; verify condition and mileage before assuming savings.
