Sawa Cars

Sell your car

What's your car worth in Kigali?

Priced from cars actually listed and sold here, never a lookup table. If the number works, we inspect the car and publish it after an admin review. You then deal with buyers directly.

  • The valuation takes about ten seconds and needs no account
  • You keep control of the price the whole way
  • You control whether buyers can request phone or WhatsApp contact

Three things we do for you

Selling privately means photographing the car, fielding calls and meeting strangers. We take the first part off your hands.

  • We inspect it properly

    A 150-point check across engine and drivetrain, brakes and steering, body, interior, electronics, tyres and documentation. Every item is graded pass, flag or fail, and the full report is published with your listing.

  • We photograph it

    We add a clear, truthful gallery with the useful exterior, interior, document and defect views this particular vehicle needs. There is no fixed angle count.

  • We publish it with the report

    Your listing goes live with the full 150-point report attached, so buyers arrive informed and you get fewer wasted calls.

Questions

What sellers ask us first

Do I pay anything through the app or website?

No. Sawa Cars has no checkout or payment gateway for vehicle sales or rentals. Buyers, sellers and rental providers decide payment and contract arrangements directly and should document them carefully.

Can sellers list cars themselves?

Sellers submit vehicle information and can manage approved listing details, but only an authorized administrator can make a listing public after the required checks.

What does it cost to sell?

One charge: the 150-point inspection, paid at the centre (the current price is on the Sell page). Listing your car, buyer messages and the valuation are free, and Sawa Cars never takes a share of the sale.

Do I need the mobile app, or can I do everything on the web?

Everything works on the web: browsing, inspection reports, saved cars, messages, ID verification, submitting a car and your account. The app adds push notifications and a faster camera.
