Auction analysis · 1GNKVGED2CJ160014
Dollar context · Chevrolet Traverse
The dollar figure clears most of the peer set—about 47% north of the mean across 5 listings.
Peer median estimate $5,122 across 4 rows with usable figures (not an appraisal).
Composite risk model
Risk stacks from damage severity first, then where odometer and dollars sit versus the peer ribbon.
Composite risk 61/100 weights damage most, then mileage rank and price rank among active CHEVROLET TRAVERSE peers—the severe damage index (52/100) anchors most of the score; odometer sits higher than 60% of 5 comparable units with mileage data; estimate exceeds 75% of peer listings that carry dollar figures; asking dollars skew above the peer midpoint.
Damage interpretation
Primary loss: FRONT END. That string maps to 52/100 severity (severe) under our keyword ladder.

Decision snapshot · 1GNKVGED2CJ160014
Single-screen posture: VIN 1GNKVGED2CJ160014 shows significant damage (FRONT END). While repair may be feasible, costs vary widely by region and shop — an independent inspection is strongly advised before bidding. The recorded mileage of 198,442 km is close to the peer average of 197,224 km.
CautionDeal score (proprietary)
At 8/100, the deal read pegs ask pressure against damage and mileage outliers for this 5-unit peer ribbon.
Modeled price outlook
- Resale midpoint (modeled)
- $4,000
- Auction cone (est.)
- $3,000 – $5,000
Versus our $4,000 resale anchor, this ask is elevated roughly 72%; reconcile with photos and title before trusting the delta.
Auction band modeled at $3,000–$5,000 USD—wider when severity rises; salvage lanes often print below private mid.
Repair budget heuristic
$18,000 – $48,000indicative USD band
Keyword + severity blend suggests a provisional $18,000–$48,000 repair envelope—body shops can deviate 2× if hidden structure or module counts appear on teardown.
Illustrative range from auction loss text, not a quote. Hidden electrical, suspension, or airbag work can exceed the upper band.

How this vehicle compares
Reading 5 nearest odometer peers for Chevrolet Traverse, this VIN’s 52/100 damage index contrasts with peers that skew milder-loss. Subject mileage 198,442 km vs a median 185,702 km across peers frames wear expectations. On dollars, roughly 2 comparables undercut this estimate while 1 clear it—useful when triangulating reserve psychology. Peer micro-profile: 2013 · 165954… · damage 45/100 · -12,740 km vs this unit · 2011 · 412705… · damage 45/100 · -33,982 km vs this unit · 2012 · 342636… · damage 36/100 · +114,748 km vs this unit · 2013 · 241264… · damage 0/100 · +124,326 km vs this unit · 2012 · 142855… · damage 50/100 · -198,441 km vs this unit. Verdict «caution» still governs: comparables explain dispersion, not replacement for title or mechanical inspection.

Auction Listing Context for 1GNKVGED2CJ160014
The record for VIN 1GNKVGED2CJ160014 — a 2012 CHEVROLET TRAVERSE — was sourced from autoconsultant. It first entered our system on February 7, 2026. The record was last refreshed on April 16, 2026. The source label matters because auction platforms, insurance lenders, and salvage feeds each use different condition categories.

Photos, mileage readings, and damage notes all come from that original feed and should be compared against in-person inspection results and official title paperwork before any financial commitment.
