Indianapolis used car prices: September 2026 (MTD)
254 used cars have been listed for sale in Indianapolis so far in September 2026, at a median asking price of $7,350. The month is not over, so these numbers will move.
That metro-wide median is up 5.0% on August 2026 ($6,999), but it mixes whatever makes, models and years happened to list each month. The model moves below compare the same model years in both months, which is the number to bid from.
No model had enough listings in the same model years in both August 2026 and September 2026 to call a price move, so we don't publish one.
Most listed: Chevrolet Cruze (12), Chevrolet Equinox (12) and Chevrolet Malibu (11). Winning a Chevrolet Cruze at Copart or IAAI? Its $5,598 local median asking price is the resale ceiling to work your max bid back from, before fees, transport and reconditioning.

Most-listed models in Indianapolis, September 2026
"Same-year change" compares only model years with at least 3 listings in both August 2026 and September 2026, so a month that happened to list newer cars doesn't read as a price rise. It is blank when fewer than 10 listings could be compared. The raw change is shown for reference and does not control for model year.
