How OAV Identifies Deals

OAV uses RetailVision™ market data to analyze real-time listings, historical sales patterns, and local market conditions. Vehicles are ranked based on pricing versus comparable listings in the same region and expected sell-through velocity.

Millions of local retail comparables across U.S. markets.
Real price-to-market ranges refreshed daily.
Days on lot incorporated as a sell-through velocity signal.
Listings priced below their typical market range surface as undervalued — a great deal or a good deal compared to similar vehicles in the local market.
Listings within the typical range surface as fairly priced — in line with what comparable vehicles are listed for locally.
Listings priced above the typical range surface as above market — higher than what comparable vehicles are typically listed for in the area.
Dealer identity may be limited to protect marketplace integrity — OAV still shows price, mileage, market range, and deal quality so shoppers can compare value before contacting a verified seller.

This helps identify undervalued vehicles and determine whether a listing represents a great deal or a good deal in its local market.

According to RetailVision™ data, OAV is currently analyzing approximately 1,445,000 affordable vehicles across the national under $25,000 market, refreshed daily.

Affordable ≠ a good deal

The most affordable vehicles are not always the best deals. OAV identifies vehicles that are both budget-friendly and priced below their expected market value — the intersection of low price and a great deal. Listings on this page are sorted to surface that intersection first.
