Starting on March 24, there will be an auction that promises to surprise car and motorcycle enthusiasts, with starting prices that are a true invitation for those looking for a unique opportunity.
Among the lots, a 2000 Corsa can be bid for just R$ 900, while a sought-after HB20, a modern and economical model, has an initial bid of R$ 2,200.
If you’re curious, know that this is not a common event.

A nearly unknown Chinese motorcycle in Brazil emerges with a 499 cc four-cylinder engine, revs at 12,500 rpm, delivers about 78 hp, and costs around US$ 4,200 to put pressure on mid-range sportbikes that cost much more.

The Toyota Yaris Cross XRX Hybrid arrives in Brazil with fuel consumption of up to 17.9 km/l in the city, a price starting from R$ 149,990, and targets compact SUVs by turning fuel economy into a weapon against more expensive and thirstier rivals.
The auction in Jundiaí and surrounding areas will feature vehicles seized for traffic violations now available for those who wish to acquire them, whether for resale or personal use.
The quantity of vehicles, motorcycles, and even scrap is surprising, with accessible prices and a rare opportunity for those looking to enter the vehicle market.
What to Expect from the March 2025 Auction
The auction will be held online and will feature three days of bidding, where different types of lots will be offered.
On the first day, preserved vehicles, meaning those in good condition and ready to drive, will be for sale.
For car enthusiasts, the opportunity is unique: in addition to the Corsa and HB20, there is also the Fiat Siena starting at R$ 1,300, and a variety of motorcycles with prices starting at R$ 1,100.
On the second day, the focus will be on usable scrap for dismantling, while the last day will be dedicated to unusable scrap, intended for melting and recycling.
It is worth noting that, the initial bids are just a starting point and can increase as interested parties participate.
The values are calculated based on assessments made by Detran-SP experts, taking into account the state of preservation and the market value of the asset.
For those looking to obtain a vehicle in good condition and at a price well below the market rate, this is an event that cannot be ignored.
Pre-Bid: How to Ensure Victory
The major novelty of this year’s auction is the possibility of making a pre-bid, which starts on March 17.
This pre-bid serves to indicate an initial interest amount and is a way to ensure you don’t miss the opportunity in case of technical failures on auction day.
Once the bid is accepted, it automatically becomes the winning bid if no new offers are made within 30 seconds. It is important to remember that, once a bid is made, it cannot be undone, so it is essential to be sure of your decision.
Additionally, bids also have a minimum increase amount, meaning that you cannot place just any bid. For preserved cars, the minimum increment is R$ 100.00, while for usable scrap, the minimum increment is R$ 50.00. For unusable scrap, the measurement is by weight, and the increment is R$ 0.02 per kilo.
What Makes This Auction a Unique Opportunity
This auction in São Paulo reflects a revitalization effort of the auction process conducted by Detran-SP.
After a hiatus in 2023 for process revision, Detran-SP resumed auctions with over 400 vehicles auctioned in the city of Botucatu in July 2024, and continued with other cities throughout the year, creating great opportunities for those seeking affordable prices.
Interested parties will be able to bid on vehicles for prices that are often considered impossible.
The chance to buy a car or motorcycle at such a low price may seem unreal, but it is a reality for those who are attentive to the right moment to participate in these auctions.
This, not to mention the variety of models offered, ranging from economy cars to motorcycles from various manufacturers, allowing anyone a chance to find what they are looking for.
What Are the Upcoming Auctions? Don’t Miss Your Chance!
In addition to the Jundiaí auction on March 24, Detran-SP has more auctions scheduled for the coming months. On March 17, São Bernardo do Campo will open its auction, featuring 578 preserved cars and 321 usable scrap. The options are vast, and prices remain highly competitive, especially compared to market values.
However, it is important to remember that, even with a bid placed, the vehicle owner has the right to recover it up to one business day before the auction, if they pay the outstanding debts related to the vehicle, such as fines, removal fees, and custody.
This ensures that the auction is fair for everyone and that the process follows the established rules.
How to Participate and What to Do Before Placing Your Bid
To participate, interested parties need to register on the website of the organizing company, Leiloaria (www.leiloaria.com.br), up to 48 hours before the auction.
Registrations are quick and facilitate the registration process so that participants can place bids directly on the site, online.
But before making your offer, it is important to visit the vehicles to check the condition of the lots up close. Visits will take place between March 17 and 21, from 9 AM to 4 PM, at two yards where the vehicles are stored.
During the visit, participants will be able to check the lots, but without the right to handle or test them. It is important to note that only a visual inspection will be allowed.
This procedure is a way to ensure that all participants have access to the same information about the condition of the vehicles.
The first exhibition yard is located at Avenida Doutor Cavalcanti, 76, in the city of Jundiaí. The second yard will be available for interested parties in another location in the city.
