What do mechanical 2018 KIA SPORTAGE models sell for?

Was $4,000 a good price for this 2018 KIA SPORTAGE?

1130 comparable 2018 KIA SPORTAGE listings sold at auction for a median of $3,650, spanning $3,100 to $4,800. At $4,000 this one went 10% above that median. Auction prices reflect as-is condition, so the gap usually comes down to damage severity, mileage and whether the car runs.

How much below its undamaged value did this KIA SPORTAGE sell for?

The insurer put this 2018 KIA SPORTAGE's pre-damage retail value at $10,296. It sold for $4,000 — 61% below that. A gap this size is normal for auction vehicles: the buyer takes on the repair cost, the paperwork and the risk that damage is worse than the photos show.

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

RUN AND DRIVES is the auction's own condition note for this 2018 KIA SPORTAGE. 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.

What does a salvage title mean for this KIA SPORTAGE?

This 2018 KIA SPORTAGE was sold on a salvage title. A salvage title means an insurer declared the vehicle a total loss. Repairing it and passing a state inspection can convert it to a rebuilt title, which stays on the record permanently and affects resale value.

Is 100,566 miles high for a 2018 KIA SPORTAGE?

Comparable 2018 KIA SPORTAGE listings at auction averaged 93,512 miles across 1130 sales, so at 100,566 miles this one sits 8% above 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.
