Top 5 Most Cost-Effective Cars from the USA in 2025
Importing cars from the USA in 2025 offers affordability and reliability. Here are the top five cost-effective models based on price, maintenance, fuel efficiency, and resale value.

Good
Condition
The auction features vehicles in various conditions, typically categorized as Run & Drive Verified, Vehicle Starts, and Cannot Start. We highly recommend choosing vehicles with a Run & Drive Verified status. However, if you have experience in repairing vehicles with more significant damage, you may consider exploring all available options.
Good
Mileage
Cars with mileage below 100,000 km are typically in good technical condition, with minimal wear on critical components like the engine and transmission. Choosing a vehicle with lower mileage can help you avoid major repairs and reduce future maintenance costs.
Pay attantion
Primary Damage
Some cars at auctions have damage statuses that indicate more serious or potentially hazardous issues. In such cases, there may be hidden risks related to safety or the structural integrity of the vehicle. When considering such options, it is essential to exercise caution and thoroughly assess potential repair costs. We strongly recommend obtaining a detailed condition report on the vehicle or contacting Autoplatforma specialists for consultation to evaluate all potential risks before purchasing.

Secondary Damage
Secondary damages typically provide additional information about existing issues with the vehicle and may indicate hidden deficiencies that require your attention.

Customs clearance
The cost of customs clearance depends on the country to which the vehicle arrives. In European countries, the excise duty is 10%, while the VAT rate ranges from 19% to 23%. Additionally, the services of a customs broker, who will handle document preparation and tax procedures, must be paid separately.
