Fast sellers get the attention, but the slow end of the used market says more about where bargains may be hiding. In February 2026, iSeeCars measured how long one- to five-year-old used models stayed unsold, against a market average of 53.0 days. Here are twelve of the slowest, starting with the longest wait.
1. Volvo XC60 hybrid: The Longest Wait
The hybrid XC60 was the slowest-selling used car in America in February 2026, according to iSeeCars’ slowest-seller ranking. Typical examples sat 170.2 days before finding a buyer, while the market average was 53.0 days. That is more than three times the normal wait for a used vehicle of the same age range.
For a shopper, a gap that wide hints at leverage. A hybrid Volvo that lingers on a lot has probably been in front of many buyers already, which can make a patient, well-reasoned offer easier to land than it would be on a fast-moving model.
2. BMW i5: Second Place Sedan
Used BMW i5 sedans required 153.0 days to sell in iSeeCars’ February 2026 data, the second-slowest result of any model, as summarized in CarPro’s February breakdown. Against the 53.0-day market average, that is nearly three times as long on the lot.
Anyone shopping for an i5 can reasonably expect room to negotiate, since sellers are clearly not being flooded with eager buyers. An owner thinking about selling should plan for a long listing period and price with that wait in mind.
3. Dodge Hornet hybrid: Plug-In Pause
Plug-in Hornets sat 123.7 days before selling, the third-slowest figure among all used models, based on the CarPro slowest-seller list. Compared with the February 2026 market average of 53.0 days, a used Hornet hybrid waited about two and a third times longer for its next owner.
The pattern gives bargain hunters a talking point when negotiating, because slow turnover usually means a seller wants the car gone. Owners hoping to cash out quickly face the opposite problem and may have to accept a lower price.
4. Lincoln Nautilus hybrid: Luxury That Lingers
A used Lincoln Nautilus hybrid needed 118.0 days to find a buyer in February 2026, the fourth-slowest result in the iSeeCars data that CarPro reviewed. The market average that month was 53.0 days, so the Lincoln spent more than twice as long unsold as a typical used car.
Luxury badges do not guarantee quick resale, and this ranking shows it plainly. Buyers comparing electrified crossovers may find a Nautilus listing priced with that slow turnover in mind, while sellers should expect a drawn-out search.
5. GMC Sierra EV: Electric Truck Standstill
Used GMC Sierra EV pickups sat 116.1 days on the market, the fifth-slowest of all models measured, CarPro reported from the iSeeCars February 2026 study. With a 53.0-day market average, the electric Sierra waited more than twice as long as a typical used vehicle.
A slow-moving truck can mean a motivated seller, so shoppers who want an electric pickup may find some flexibility on price. Owners looking to sell should be ready for an extended listing rather than a quick handoff.
6. Ford Escape plug-in hybrid: Double the Average
The plug-in hybrid version of the Ford Escape took 112.3 days to sell used in February 2026, according to the iSeeCars sales-speed study. That is more than double the 53-day market average, placing a mainstream Ford crossover among the slowest sellers in the country.
A familiar nameplate does not guarantee fast resale once a plug-in powertrain is involved. Shoppers can use the long wait as a reason to ask for a lower price, and sellers may need to cut theirs to compete.
7. Volvo XC90 hybrid: Second Volvo on the List
Volvo lands a second entry here, since the hybrid XC90 needed 108.7 days to sell used in February 2026, per the iSeeCars used-car data. The market average was 53.0 days, so the Volvo sat roughly twice as long as a typical used vehicle before leaving a lot.
Having both the XC60 and XC90 hybrids this far down the speed rankings suggests used Volvo hybrids in general are taking a long time to move. That slow pace can work in favor of shoppers willing to bargain.
8. Nissan Z: Sports Car, Slow Sale
The Nissan Z sports car sat 107.9 days on the used market in February 2026, according to iSeeCars’ slowest-seller data. Against the 53.0-day average, that is about twice as long as the typical used model took.
A two-seat performance car draws a narrower group of shoppers than a family crossover, and a long wait fits that picture. A buyer who is not in a hurry may find a seller open to offers, while an owner may need patience.
9. Land Rover Discovery: Nearly Double the Norm
A used Land Rover Discovery took 101.5 days to sell, which is 1.92 times the market average, according to a republished iSeeCars release on WAVY. The figure comes from February 2026 sales of one- to five-year-old vehicles and tops 100 days.
The Discovery shows that the slow list is not limited to electric models. Buyers interested in a Land Rover can treat the long listing time as bargaining room, and sellers should expect a slower sale than average.
10. Dodge Charger (electric): Battery-Powered Muscle
The battery-powered Dodge Charger took 96.7 days to sell used in February 2026, or 1.82 times the market average, as reported in the iSeeCars figures carried by WAVY’s automotive coverage. That placed the electric muscle car well inside the slowest-selling group.
A well-known nameplate did little to speed up resale in this case. Shoppers drawn to an electric Charger have a clear argument for a discount, while owners may need to price below hopeful expectations to attract a buyer.
11. Chevrolet Blazer EV: One of Nine EVs
The Chevrolet Blazer EV took 96.3 days to sell used, and it is one of nine electric vehicles among the 20 slowest sellers in the data published by WAVY from iSeeCars. The February 2026 market average was 53.0 days, so this crossover waited nearly twice as long.
Nine of twenty is a heavy concentration of electric models among the slowest sellers. That is useful context for anyone weighing an electric Chevrolet against a gasoline alternative, and for owners planning an eventual sale.
12. Cadillac Escalade IQ: Big Electric Cadillac
Rounding out the group, the electric Cadillac Escalade IQ took 93.8 days to sell used, or 1.77 times the market average, according to the WAVY report on iSeeCars data. The measurement covers February 2026 sales of used vehicles up to five years old.
A flagship luxury SUV waiting about three months to sell is a notable result. Buyers with the budget for one can reasonably push on price, while sellers should be prepared to stay patient or lower their asking figure.
