How much is a 2000 Toyota RAV4 worth?
A 2000 Toyota RAV4 has a median retail value of $4,764, with most appraised between $1,050 and $5,595. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $650 across 12 recent sales — the middle 50% between $425 and $1,050.
Why is the 2000 Toyota RAV4 so cheap at auction?

For the 2000 Toyota RAV4 that gap runs about 7.3× — $4,764 retail against a $650 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
