Online Bidding on December 18 Gathers Cars and Motorcycles, with Visitation Until 17, and Scheduled Pickup Between December 26 and January 13, 2026.
The Government of the State of São Paulo has opened another auction of cars and motorcycles with a virtual public session on December 18. Vehicle visitation is allowed until 17, from 9 AM to 3 PM.
Among the highlights is the Honda XRE 300 from 2018 with bids starting at R$ 900. Also noteworthy is the Toyota Corolla with a minimum bid of R$ 13 thousand, which is R$ 999 below the iPhone 17 Pro Max 512 GB, priced at R$ 13,999.
What Happened and Why It Gathered Attention
The auction features 730 vehicles fit for circulation and more than 47 salvable scraps. The scrap modality may have a working engine or not, with the possibility of using parts as spares.

Petrobras sends a message to Brazilian truck drivers after fuel collapse and reveals plan to have 100% domestic diesel.
The session is virtual, but in-person inspection was scheduled before the auction. The visitation takes place in Suzano (SP), during the specified period and hours.
Bids start from a minimum value, which serves as the starting point for offers. The estimated evaluation of each unit considers market prices and the state of preservation.
What Changes in Practice for Those Who Want to Buy
Vehicles in circulating condition can return to public roads. The responsibility for regularization lies with the buyer, including registration with the transit agency and payment of the corresponding fees.
The vehicles are sold as they are. There is no commitment to the integrity of parts, and the buyer acknowledges the mechanical state, with no possibility of subsequent claims.
This purchase model often requires planning, as documentation and maintenance costs may arise after the auction. The practical recommendation is to treat the bid as part of the total expense.
What Are the Rules, Deadlines, and Conditions
The pickup of cars, motorcycles, pickups, and trucks must be done between December 26 and January 13, 2026, with prior scheduling. This deadline organizes the exit from the yard and avoids delays.
Visitation is scheduled until 17, from 9 AM to 3 PM. This period allows for assessing preservation details before deciding on the maximum bid value.
The minimum bid is just the start of the auction, and the final value depends on the offers made during the virtual session. The logic of the auction favors those who enter with a well-defined budget limit.
Vehicles That Stand Out and Starting Values
In addition to the Honda XRE 300 from 2018 for R$ 900, the auction includes the Chevrolet Trailblazer from 2016 with bids starting at R$ 39.9 thousand. The Toyota Corolla appears with a minimum bid of R$ 13 thousand.
Other models come with varied starting values, such as the Yamaha Lander XTZ 250 from 2010 for R$ 4,200, the Volkswagen Santana from 2006 for R$ 5,200, and the Fiat Palio Weekend from 2003 for R$ 5,300.
There are also options like the Volkswagen Parati 1.6 from 2010 for R$ 6,500, the Chevrolet Spin 1.8 LS from 2019 for R$ 6,900, the Volkswagen Kombi from 2002 for R$ 10,000, and the Mitsubishi L200 Triton from 2015 for R$ 16,900.
Among the higher values are the Toyota Hilux SW4 from 2014 for R$ 30,300 and the Fiat Ducato Minibus from 2010 for R$ 31,500, in addition to the Chevrolet Trailblazer for R$ 39.9 thousand.
Who Can Participate and Who is Precluded
Participation is prohibited for individuals or companies suspended or barred from contracting with the state public administration. Those considered unfit by public agencies are also excluded.
There is a prohibition for anyone with professional, commercial, or personal ties to the auction organization. Those without a legal representative in Brazil authorized to respond legally also cannot participate.
Other prohibitions include penalties from CADE for anti-competitive practices, penalties for environmental crimes, convictions for administrative misconduct, and contracting bans by the State Court of Accounts of SP. Restrictions also apply to those who violated the Access to Information Act and those listed in registries of companies punished for corruption or other irregularities.
Points of Attention and Common Questions
Public and private auctions have different origins for vehicles, which can impact documentation and regularization. There are cases where the vehicle’s history requires extra attention to avoid setbacks.
The absence of a guarantee is a central point, especially in public auctions. Therefore, the in-person inspection before the bid tends to be decisive for assessing the real state and the costs that may arise later.
The practical inspection involves checking the interior, dashboard, trim items, equipment, mileage, and components such as the 12V battery. When possible, the presence of a trusted mechanic helps estimate extra maintenance costs.
It is also important to check for debts and blocks, as payment responsibilities may vary. This information needs to be clear in the auction rules before any bid.
The virtual auction of the Government of SP on December 18 brings opportunities with very low starting bids, such as the Honda XRE 300 for R$ 900, and vehicles with attention-grabbing prices, like the Toyota Corolla for R$ 13 thousand.
To take advantage safely, the way forward involves visitation until 17, defining a spending limit, careful reading of the rules, and paying attention to the pickup deadline between December 26 and January 13, 2026.
