Frequently asked questions
How much is a 2017 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid worth?
A 2017 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid has a median retail value of $8,568, with most appraised between $6,664 and $12,192. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $2,375 across 8 recent sales — the middle 50% between $1,475 and $7,325.
Why is the 2017 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid so cheap at auction?

For the 2017 Hyundai Sonata Hybrid that gap runs about 3.6× — $8,568 retail against a $2,375 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
