Sell your EV as a private seller
Sell your own electric car without the hassle. We set a fair price based on battery health, and you choose: list on the marketplace or let dealers bid.
In short: selling as a private seller
We set a fair price based on your battery health (SoH) and market data, and let you choose: list on the marketplace or let dealers bid. Have your V5C logbook, a valid MOT and service history ready, and tell the DVLA once you've sold. Updated 2026-07-10.
Why through EVTrader
SoH counts towards the price
We factor in battery health — generic buyers don't. It often means hundreds to thousands of pounds.
You stay in control
You set the price and choose the buyer. We never become the buyer.
Fair price from our data
The price comes from our EV market data and residual-value index — not a guide that ignores the battery.
Hassle-free
No endless forms. You handle everything via WhatsApp, free and without obligation.
The documents you need
V5C logbook
The registration certificate. You notify the DVLA of the sale online and send the new-keeper slip to the buyer.
Valid MOT certificate
A current MOT builds confidence and makes the sale smoother (required from the car's third anniversary).
Service history
A complete service history and any charging/warranty documents strengthen your listing.
Finance settlement (if applicable)
If the car is on PCP, PCH or HP, outstanding finance must be settled and the finance company must consent before you can sell.
