Brazilian automotive market trends
Overview
The Brazilian automotive market shows distinct consumer preferences and valuation trends. Early reports focused on comparisons between used Honda and Toyota models, noting that the Honda City Sedan offers more trunk space and rear passenger room than the Toyota Yaris Sedan. For budgets under R$ 60,000, several older Honda models, including the Fit, City, Civic, and CR-V, were identified as viable options.
Later data highlights a divergence in SUV performance between Brazil and the United States. While the Honda CR-V has achieved high sales volumes in the US, particularly with hybrid versions, it has seen low adoption in Brazil, with only 133 licenses recorded in 2026. This low volume is attributed to a high price point of R$ 353,500, which faces competition from models like the BYD Atto 8. Additionally, October 2026 FIPE table data shows specific used vehicle valuations, such as the 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander GT 3.0 V6 being priced similarly to much newer or smaller vehicles.
