Car Crash Value
Estimates for Your Car Accident Claim

Car Crash Value is a website that helps you estimate diminished value after a crash: the resale value a car can lose because it now has an accident history, even after repairs. Enter your vehicle's details in our diminished value calculator for an estimate range. A separate calculator estimates an injury claim.

Diminished Value Questions

What is diminished value?

Diminished value is the difference between what a car was worth before a crash and what it is worth after it has been repaired. A car with an accident history can sell for less than a similar car without one, even when the repair work is good.

How do I use the diminished value calculator?

Open the diminished value calculator and enter the vehicle's year, make, model, mileage, estimated pre-accident value, repair cost, and damage severity. The calculator then shows an estimated range for the value the car may have lost.

What affects how much value a car loses after a crash?

The calculator looks at the vehicle's age, mileage, pre-accident value, repair cost, and how severe the damage was. A real buyer or appraiser may also consider things the calculator does not, such as the vehicle's condition and local market.

Is the estimate an appraisal or legal advice?

No. The calculator gives a general estimate for information only. It is not a formal appraisal and it is not legal advice. For your specific situation, talk with a qualified professional.

Is diminished value the same as an injury claim?

No. Diminished value is about the car's lost resale value. An injury claim is about the costs of being hurt, such as medical bills and lost wages. They are separate, so the car accident settlement calculator handles injury estimates.
