Which dinky Skoda SUV was the fastest seller on Carwow?
June 20, 2025 by Iain Reid
On average, it took just 4.5 days for Skoda Yeti owners to sell their car in Carwow’s online auctions in May – meaning that if you put your car up for sale on Monday, you could have money in your pocket by the weekend.
Dealers snapped up the dinky SUV in record time, knowing their buyers appreciate that the Yeti is fun to drive, practical, and that four-wheel drive versions are actually quite capable off-road. It’s decent value too.
The Hyundai ix35 – another small SUV – was the second quickest seller in May, taking on average just six days from upload to sale.
Fastest time from upload to sale
| Rank | Model | Days to Sale |
|---|---|---|
| 1st | Skoda Yeti | 4.5 |
| 2nd | Hyundai ix35 | 6 |
| 3rd | DS 3 | 6 |
| 4th | Toyota Verso | 6.1 |
| 5th | Land Rover Freelander | 6.1 |
Right now could be a good time for ix35 owners to sell their car, as the small SUV was also the car that sold with the highest percentage over its reserve price. On average, the ix35 managed to sell 11.87% above its reserve, giving sellers the most bang for their buck.
The Volvo XC90 also performed well, with sellers managing to get 5.75% over their reserve price, while the Honda Civic sold for an average of 4.47% over the reserve price.
