Value at Different Mileages
How mileage adjustment works.
Low-mileage cars command a premium; high-mileage examples sell at a discount. The Indian used-car market applies roughly ₹25,000-45,000 per 10,000 km from the norm, with sharper drops at psychological milestones like 1 lakh km. Note that India's resale ecosystem relies more on local dealer/broker judgment than standardized valuation guides, so treat these figures as an estimate.
Frequently asked questions.
How many kilometres is too many?
There's no hard cutoff - a well-maintained car can run 2,00,000+ km. But resale demand drops after 1,00,000 km, and financing/warranty options shrink, so value falls faster beyond that point.
Is low mileage always better?
Usually, but extremely low mileage on an older car can mean lots of short trips or long storage, which cause their own wear (dry seals, old fluids). Service history matters as much as the odometer.
Does mileage or age matter more?
Both. Age drives the base depreciation curve; mileage adjusts around it. A 5-year-old car with 30,000 km is worth notably more than the same model with 90,000 km.
