How much is a 2018 Polaris Ranger worth?

A 2018 Polaris Ranger has a median retail value of $11,425, with most appraised between $10,667 and $11,615. At Copart and IAAI salvage auctions the same vehicles sold for a median of $3,450 across 7 recent sales — the middle 50% between $2,200 and $4,450.

Why is the 2018 Polaris Ranger so cheap at auction?

For the 2018 Polaris Ranger that gap runs about 3.3× — $11,425 retail against a $3,450 auction median. The spread is the repair bill, the title brand, and the risk.
