Methodology

Sales are retail sales observed in de-identified AutoRaptor CRM activity at independent dealerships in Illinois — a measure of what actually sold through dealerships using AutoRaptor, not a total of Illinois's entire used-car market. Figures are cumulative since January 2024, not just the most recent month.

Updated monthly, from the same refresh that powers our turn-time pages — there's no separate pipeline for this ranking, so it's only as fresh as that monthly run.

A model appears here only once it clears 20 or more sales within Illinois specifically (lower than the 150+ national bar used on the main turn-time pages, since a single-state sample is smaller). A state gets its own page only with 8 or more qualifying models.

Median days to sell is the state-specific figure for that model — click through to its full turn-time page for the national number, year-by-year detail, and how it compares against similar vehicles.

Avg. list price is the advertised price at listing, averaged nationally — we don't yet track price by state, so this column is the same figure you'd see on the model's own turn-time page, not a Illinois-specific number.
