STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. — Millions of Americans buy used cars, favoring certain makes and models over others. According to a new iSeeCars study, American used car buyers continued to favor full‑size pickups in 2025.

The automotive research firm iSeeCars’ new study revealed the best-selling used vehicles in 2025, analyzing more than nine million sales of vehicles from 2020 through 2025 model years.

Pickup trucks and SUVs continued to dominate the U.S. used vehicle market in 2025, accounting for 7.1% of all sales, consistent with previous years.

According to the study, “the Ford F‑150, Chevrolet Silverado, and Dodge Ram remain the kings of the road,” ranking as the top three used vehicles, consistent with last year’s results.

However, “the F‑150’s footprint is starting to shrink at the state level. It’s no longer a foregone conclusion that it will be the most popular vehicle in every region of the U.S.”

Even though the top three pickup trucks remained the same, the ranking for popular used cars experienced a few changes in 2025.

The Chevrolet Malibu jumped to 8th place, while the Nissan Rogue and Toyota Corolla also moved up in the rankings.

According to the iSeeCars study, with Malibu production canceled in 2025, rental car agencies likely released these models into the used market, replacing them with sedans still in production.

The study also breaks down the most popular used vehicles by city.

In New York City, residents preferred cars and SUVs rather than pickups, with the Chevrolet Equinox topping the list for used cars in 2025. The vehicle accounted for about 2.8% of all used car sales, according to iSeeCars’ data.
