Hey there,

search data for 50 of the most popular car models in the US, combining
their annual searches for ‘used’ and ‘second-hand [model]’ to reveal the
most popular used cars in the US.

Ranking as the most popular used car in the US is the Jeep. The Jeep is one
of the most iconic vehicles of modern times, and its rugged four-wheel
drive capabilities have seen the Wrangler model endure since 1986. Searches
for used Jeep Wranglers were higher than for any other vehicle in the US in
the last year, with just over three-quarters of a million searches.

Taking second place is the Toyota Tacoma, with just over half a million
searches for used models in the last twelve months. The Tacoma was Toyota’s
first pickup truck when it launched in 1995 and it has been hugely popular
since, winning Motor Trend’s Truck of the Year in 2005.

In third is the Tesla Model 3, which is also one of the most popular EVs in
the US and the same is true when it comes to the used market, with just
under 500,000 searches to buy used in the last year. As well as its
performance and impressive regular software updates, the Tesla Model 3 is
one of the more affordable Tesla models, which only adds to its popularity
with consumers.

Further study insights:

   The Nissan LEAF is the used car that loses its value the quickest at an
   estimated rate of just under 50% across a 3 year period (49%).
