Used electric vehicle volumes are accelerating rapidly because early lease agreements and fleet contracts are reaching their end, flooding the wholesale market with quality EV stock. Consequently, dealers need a reliable platform to source used EVs with confidence, while sellers need access to buyers who understand and actively seek electric vehicles. TradeSales therefore bridges that gap — providing a dedicated used EV trading environment with the specialist data and buyer network this growing market demands.

TradeSales offers a diverse pipeline of used electric vehicles from multiple disposal channels. For example, you can source end-of-lease EVs from leasing companies, fleet defleeting programmes from corporate operators, and franchise part-exchange electric vehicles — all in one place. Moreover, with EV adoption having surged in recent years, the volume and variety of wholesale electric stock grows month on month, giving buyers more choice than ever before.

Disposing of electric vehicles through traditional channels can mean long days in stock because many auction buyers still lack the knowledge or appetite for EV stock. However, TradeSales has cultivated a growing base of EV-ready dealers who actively search for electric vehicles. Furthermore, our stock policy matching connects your EVs with buyers filtering by range, battery capacity, and charging type, so your vehicles reach the right audience from day one.

The used EV market is less mature than its ICE counterpart, so pricing can feel uncertain without the right tools. However, TradeSales analytics draw on real transaction data to help both buyers and sellers set fair, market-reflective prices for electric vehicles. In addition, you can track how EV values move across different models, battery sizes, and age profiles — and make trading decisions backed by evidence rather than speculation.

As the used EV market grows, disposal costs should not eat into your margins. That’s why TradeSales charges zero seller fees and maintains low buyer fees — a stark contrast to specialist EV auction platforms that charge premium commissions for what amounts to the same service. Similarly, whether you are defleeting a handful of electric vehicles or managing hundreds of lease returns, our fee structure ensures you retain more value from every transaction.
