How much is a 2013 Toyota RAV4 worth?

A 2013 Toyota RAV4 has a median retail value of $10,095, with most appraised between $8,100 and $11,604. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $3,850 across 56 recent sales — the middle 50% between $2,800 and $4,800.

Why is the 2013 Toyota RAV4 so cheap at auction?

For the 2013 Toyota RAV4 that gap runs about 2.6× — $10,095 retail against a $3,850 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
