Market Watch: These Are The Most Popular Cars On Carousell

It’s always fascinating to discover what Carousell users are searching within the used cars realm. While trigger-happy moments during doom scrolling is a likely outcome, it has proven over the years that the popular pre-owned cars have a smidge of practicality and sensibility. Which makes plenty of sense given how astronomical our car ownership experience can be from a financial standpoint.

A recent scan through the classifieds revealed a healthy number of users clicking on mid-sized sedans. We’ve been preaching on how the three-box form factor should deserve more recognition despite the proliferation of SUVs and crossovers. It’s comforting to discover a good chunk of low-slung options propelled by three varying powertrains. Continue this push to keep more sedans on our tarmac - they need not live on borrowed time!

2021 Volvo S60 B4 R-Design

Volvo’s push for full electrification is apparent here, which is why even a mild-hybrid option can prove refreshing. While wagons have spearheaded the Volvo branding for decades, the S60 in sedan guise looks in fine fettle. 194hp and 300Nm of torque doesn’t sound like much in this caffeine-hit electric age, but we’d argue that a 2.0-litre turbo, 8-speed auto pairing gears us up for peak ICE enjoyment.

More than 400 litres of boot space ain’t award winning too, but we’re glad that you’re looking at more than just SUVs in Volvo’s back catalogue. Well done!

2007 Honda Accord Euro R

A 260,000km stick shifting Honda pushing two decades old, strangely enough, doesn’t induce panic attacks. That's perhaps why you’re still interested in them. It’s tough to pinpoint when the CL7R hit peak popularity in Singapore. Waves of COE renewals are possibly the strongest statement of intent, and we reckon that the blend of chiselled good looks and bulletproof reliability helped to prolong its lifespan here.

The icing of the cake has to be that highly flexible K-coded motor Hondas were once famous for. This is what enamoured many to the brand, and seems like you’re buying into the nostalgia.

2023 Tesla Model 3 Standard

Despite the onslaught of Chinese EVs entering our shores, the Tesla fanbase will still remain committed. Make of that what you will, but here in Singapore you’re open to the option of pre-owned Teslas. This 2023 Model 3 Standard, to a handful, might have fallen by the wayside to make space for its successor.

But you’re clearly keen on some near-mint samples starting to spring up in Singapore. Razor-sharp dedication and deep pockets are required to be on top of the tech game, which some might find pointless and tiring. We support your idea of scrubbing the classifieds for golden EV tickets!
