Guazi Used Car Releases April 2026 Best-Seller List

As China’s May Day "Golden Week" concludes, the surge in demand for long-distance family travel has significantly boosted market liquidity for spacious, multi-purpose vehicles. With a wave of post-holiday trade-ins hitting the market, owners of popular models are entering a prime selling window. In response, Guazi Used Car has released its April 2026 Best-Seller List, focusing on mid-size to full-size sedans, SUVs, and MPVs. The report aims to help owners benchmark real-time market value and secure higher returns.

ICE Vehicles from BBA Lead Holiday Transactions: Direct Sales to Private Buyers Maximize Returns

According to Guazi’s transaction data for Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) vehicles, mid-size and larger models dominated the April Top 10 volume rankings. Mid-size sedans secured six spots—featuring the BMW 3 Series, Mercedes-Benz C-Class, Audi A4L, VW Magotan, VW Passat, and Toyota Camry. Full-size sedans took three spots with the BMW 5 Series, Audi A6L, and Mercedes-Benz E-Class, while the Buick GL8 remained the sole MPV on the list.

This data underscores that premium inventory on the Guazi platform effectively reaches end-buyers willing to pay a premium. For owners of these ICE models, the post-holiday trade-in surge translates to faster turnover and more competitive pricing. The current window offers a strategic opportunity to connect with authentic buyers through Guazi’s "Direct-to-Consumer" (D2C) model.

Notably, luxury brands (BMW, Audi, and Mercedes-Benz) maintain high liquidity in the secondary market. Six models from these "BBA" brands entered the Top 10, with the Mercedes-Benz E-Class fetching as high as 434,100 RMB on the platform. Potential buyers for these vehicles typically have ample budgets and high standards, favoring one-owner cars with complete service records. By bypassing traditional middlemen, Guazi’s direct-selling model prevents price suppression. Platform estimates suggest that selling a luxury vehicle directly to a private buyer can yield a value-add of over 10%.

High-End EVs Capture Pre-Holiday Demand: Direct Sales Help Owners Lock in Premiums

In the New Energy Vehicle (NEV) market, the April best-seller list for family travel was led by mid-size SUVs, while interest in full-size electric sedans continued to soar. As the vanguard of the high-end EV segment, these models offer superior smart features and significantly lower operating costs compared to their ICE counterparts—accurately hitting the pain points of younger buyers seeking high-quality, tech-driven mobility. For owners, this means spacious, well-maintained EVs are seeing robust demand from private buyers.

To address concerns regarding rapid depreciation due to fast model iterations, Guazi’s April data offers encouraging signals:

• NIO ES8: Sold for up to 372,000 RMB.

• Tesla Model Y: Reached transaction prices of 287,000 RMB.

• Xiaomi SU7: Even the recently launched model commanded 274,900 RMB.

These figures demonstrate that high-end EVs with strong brand equity and solid reputations still command significant premium space on Guazi. By selling directly to end-users, owners can offload vehicles at prices that reflect true market demand. This allows them to transition into newer models and the latest technology with more financial confidence, without the fear of excessive depreciation losses.
