Customer and sales rep speaking about KBB Honda trade in

We field a lot of questions from customers about trading in their cars, including “Should I use KBB for trade-in value?” and “What exactly affects my trade-in value?” We’ll happily answer anything you ask and help you get the most out of your old vehicle. Stop by Clark Knapp Honda when you’re ready to put that value toward your next sedan, SUV, truck, or van.

Why You Should Use Kelley Blue Book for Your Trade-In Value

Kelley Blue Book (KBB) is respected throughout the automotive industry as an authority on vehicle values. Their valuation process considers a variety of factors, including your vehicle’s:

  • Trim level
  • Mileage
  • Age
  • Special or upgraded features

Our dealership partners with KBB to value your trade-in. After you submit our easy online form, you’ll get an instant offer that lets you know how much your old vehicle is worth. Then, you can trade it in for the new or pre-owned model of your choice.

How to Boost Your Car’s Trade-In Value

Before trading in your vehicle to our dealership, take a few steps to boost its value. First, make any small repairs like replacing burnt-out lightbulbs or worn windshield wipers. Then, give it a thorough cleaning both inside and out. Finally, gather all of the documentation you can (including maintenance history and accident reports, if applicable). The more work you do before trading it in, the more your vehicle will be worth.
