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.

61/100 blended

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.

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.

Auction Listing Context for 1GNKVGED2CJ160014
