USS Auction Report — East Africa Demand & Market Trends

The first quarter of 2026 has shown a notable increase in competition at Japan's USS and CAA auction halls for Grade 4 and above Toyota Land Cruiser Prado 150 units. Buyers — particularly those sourcing for the Kenyan and Tanzanian markets — should be prepared to bid more aggressively this season.

What We Are Seeing at Auction

• Prado 150 (2019–2022, Grade 4): Average hammer price up approximately ¥200,000–¥350,000 compared to Q4 2025
• Hiace Super GL LWB (Diesel, Grade 3.5–4): Prices stable, slight softening on older 2016–2018 units
• Hilux Double Cab 4WD (2021+): Continued strong demand from multiple markets simultaneously
• Land Cruiser 200/300: Limited supply at Grade 4+; budget requirements have increased significantly

Recommendation for Buyers

If your target is a Prado 150 (2020–2022, Grade 4+) for the East African market, we strongly recommend setting your maximum bid limit at least ¥300,000 higher than Q4 2025 expectations. Contact us via WhatsApp for a real-time quote and pre-auction shortlist.
