Used car listings in Saudi Arabia and the UAE rose by 8% between April and June, according to Dubai-based auto analytics company AutoData‘s H1 2025 Used Car Market Report.

Working closely with Dubai-based auto marketplace DubiCars, AutoData reported a 42% year-on-year increase in listings during H1 2024. 

The number of listings for electric vehicles rose by 25%, with EV demand up 10%. During the same period, demand for hybrid vehicles increased by 22%.

AutoData also revealed that used cars took an average of 25 days to sell in Saudi Arabia in January. In the UAE, this figure stood at 40 days. 

In April, these figures dipped to 14 days in the UAE and 13 in Saudi Arabia, likely driven by Ramadan and Eid promotion deals, AutoData said. By the end of H1, the average number of days in the UAE had rebounded above 40 in the UAE and to 30 in Saudi Arabia.
