The 2016 Toyota Prius auction market at a glance

The middle half of sales ran from $850 to $3,000, a 3.5x spread, so the damage on the car matters far more than the badge.

69% still ran and drove when sold; most were lightly or moderately damaged, which props up the median.

The most common primary damage was front end (60% of sales), followed by side (17%).

The monthly median moved up about 101% from May to November; medians swing with the mix of damage sold each month, so read that as direction, not a forecast.

Next to neighboring years of the Prius, a 2017 brought $200 more at the median, and a 2015 brought $900 less at the median.

The typical one crossed the block with about 134,000 miles.

Wrecked 2016 Toyota Prius questions

How much is a wrecked 2016 Toyota Prius worth?

Most sold for $850 to $3,000 at US auctions over the last 6 months, with a median of $1,850 across 558 sales. Where yours lands depends on the damage, whether it runs, mileage and title.

Does it matter if my 2016 Toyota Prius still runs?

Yes. 69% of the ones sold still ran and drove. Runners with light damage sell toward the top of the range; non-runners, flood and fire cars sell toward the bottom.

Should I part out my wrecked 2016 Toyota Prius or sell it whole?

At a median of $1,850, it depends on which parts survived. Parting out grosses more on paper, but time, fees and the leftover shell eat into it; selling whole pays this week.

Can I sell a 2016 Toyota Prius with a salvage title?

Yes. Buyers of damaged cars handle salvage titles every day and price the brand in. A missing title narrows the pool of buyers more than a salvage brand does, and state rules decide who can buy a car without one.
