Citroen C6 for sale in Shanghai (China)

Are you in the market to buy (or sell) a Citroen C6 in Shanghai? Vehiclus surveyed the local used auto market of all towns in China to determine a pricing profile of various Citroen models depending on their age, technical condition, optical condition, and mileage. If you want to optimize your profits when selling your C6 (or to be certain to not be ripped off when buying a Citroen C6) it is recommended to understand most value-determining factors.

Supply and Demand of Citroen C6 on the local vehicle market

Shanghai is a city with a current population of 22315474 people. Nevertheless, it is hard to find more than five Citroen C6 on the local car market at the same time. Hence, the supply is low and the demand depends on a multitude of factors e.g. maintenance costs, brand popularity, and brand competetivness.

Price Devaluation Curve of the C6 in Shanghai

As shown below, cars of the manufacturer Citroen and specially of their model C6 loose their value in a very average process. The mean price of the C6 will be decreased by up to 13% ($30,576) after only one year. After three years, the car typically goes for only 63% of its original asking price ($21,869) while it will only be priced at 28% of the MSRP after 7 years ($9,686). The C6's value after twelve years is only 10% of its first price depending on its condition of course.

Depreciation according to vehicle mileage

Another way to analyze vehicle depreciation is to look at the loss of value over miles driven. The Citroen C6 depreciation curve below shows this phenomenon for the city of Shanghai. The C6 looses most of its value (~ 50%) within the first 30k kilometers driven. The average price for a C6 at that usage level is approximately $19,526. After that the depreciation slows down: at 90k km the Citroen C6 is priced for $11,175 in Shanghai and for $5,409 at 180,000km of mileage.
