Current used car market trends in Kolkata

Petrol is still the most popular fuel option in Kolkata’s used car market

As per CARS24’s internal data, with a 78.25% market share in 2024, used petrol cars remain the most preferred fuel type in Kolkata's used car market. Used diesel cars, on the other hand, were still favoured by 21.57% of consumers who wanted better mileage, especially for long-distance travel. Used CNG car adoption, however, remained scarce with a market share of only 0.17% in 2024, largely due to the city's inadequate fueling infrastructure.

For used cars in Kolkata, manual gearboxes continue to be the first choice.

As per CARS24’s internal data, with a 92.27% market share in 2024, used manual transmission cars continue to be the most preferred transmission type in Kolkata’s pre owned car market, reflecting a strong consumer preference for affordable cars that offer a smooth shifting experience. Considering that Kolkata’s used car market is largely price sensitive, second hand automatic cars held only 7.73% of the aggregate market share with a 0.6% year-on-year decrease compared to 2023.

Older hatchbacks continue to find strong demand in Kolkata’s pre-owned market.

With a 61.81% market share in 2024, used hatchbacks continue to be the most popular body type in Kolkata’s used car market due to their small size and the convenience of parking in crowded urban areas, as per CARS24’s internal data. Despite a year-on-year decline of about 2%, second hand sedans still held 21.96% of market share, suggesting a slight shift in consumer preference. Used SUV sales, on the other hand, have increased by 16.23% in 2024, indicating a growing demand for a better road presence and a more comfortable cabin.
