Question 1

What does a clear mean for this HYUNDAI KONA?

Accepted Answer

This 2023 HYUNDAI KONA was sold on a clear. A clean title means no total-loss brand was recorded at the point of sale, which is unusual at salvage auctions and typically lifts the price.

Question 2

How far is this HYUNDAI KONA from an export port?

Accepted Answer

The lot sat at IAAI in TX - SIMPSONVILLE. The nearest major vehicle export port is Houston, roughly 200 miles away. Moving a car that distance on an open carrier typically runs $250-$350, which is a real part of the landed cost and one reason identical cars fetch different bids depending on where they sit. Rates are indicative market figures rather than quotes, and rise with fuel prices and in winter.

Question 3

What does "RUN AND DRIVES" mean on this listing?

Accepted Answer

RUN AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2023 HYUNDAI KONA. It means the vehicle started and moved under its own power during a brief check at the yard. It is not a mechanical inspection and says nothing about how far it would drive. Anything beyond that has to come from the photos and a physical inspection.

Question 4

Is 37,826 miles high for a 2023 HYUNDAI KONA?

Accepted Answer

Comparable 2023 HYUNDAI KONA listings at auction averaged 38,682 miles across 1766 sales, so at 37,826 miles this one sits 2% below that. At salvage auctions mileage moves the price far less than damage does — a low-mileage car with structural damage will still sell under a higher-mileage clean one.

Question 5

Did this 2023 HYUNDAI KONA come with keys?

Accepted Answer

Yes — this lot was listed with keys present, which usually means the vehicle could at least be started or moved at the yard. Combined with theft damage, that tells you more about its condition than the damage label alone.

Question 6

Can I buy this 2023 HYUNDAI KONA from AutoBidCar?

Accepted Answer

No. AutoBidCar is an archive of past auction listings, not a seller — we have never owned this vehicle. This 2023 HYUNDAI KONA was listed at IAAI as lot 42812159 and any sale happened there. We publish the record so buyers can research what comparable vehicles actually sold for.
