Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract] | |
Business Organization | NOTE 1 — BUSINESS ORGANIZATION Description of Business Carvana Co. and its wholly-owned subsidiary Carvana Co. Sub LLC (collectively, "Carvana Co."), together with its consolidated subsidiaries (the "Company"), is the leading e-commerce platform for buying and selling used cars. The Company is transforming the used car sales experience by giving consumers what they want — a wide selection, great value and quality, transparent pricing, and a simple, no pressure transaction. Using the website, customers can complete all phases of a used vehicle purchase transaction, including financing their purchase, trading in their current vehicle, and purchasing complementary products such as vehicle service contracts ("VSC") and GAP waiver coverage. Each element of the Company's business, from inventory procurement to fulfillment and overall ease of the online transaction, has been built for this singular purpose. Organization Carvana Co. is a holding company that was formed as a Delaware corporation on November 29, 2016 for the purpose of completing its initial public offering ("IPO") and related transactions in order to operate the business of Carvana Group, LLC and its subsidiaries (collectively, "Carvana Group"). Substantially all of the Company’s assets and liabilities represent the assets and liabilities of Carvana Group, except the Company's Senior Notes (as defined in Note 9 — Debt Instruments) which were issued by Carvana Co. and guaranteed by its and Carvana Group's existing domestic restricted subsidiaries. In accordance with Carvana Group LLC's amended and restated limited liability company agreement (the "LLC Agreement"), Carvana Co. is the sole manager of Carvana Group and conducts, directs and exercises full control over the activities of Carvana Group. There are two classes of common ownership interests in Carvana Group, Class A common units (the "Class A Units") and Class B common units (the "Class B Units"). As further discussed in Note 10 — Stockholders' Equity, the Class A Units and Class B Units (collectively, the "LLC Units") do not hold voting rights, which results in Carvana Group being considered a variable interest entity ("VIE"). Due to Carvana Co.'s power to control and its significant economic interest in Carvana Group, it is considered the primary beneficiary of the VIE and the Company consolidates the financial results of Carvana Group. As of September 30, 2021, Carvana Co. owned approximately 48.9% of Carvana Group and the LLC Unitholders (as defined in Note 10 — Stockholders' Equity) owned the remaining 51.1%. |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Summary of Significant Accounting Policies | NOTE 2 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included within the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 25, 2021. In addition, in 2021, the Company has changed its presentation from thousands to millions and, as a result, any necessary rounding adjustments have been made to prior year disclosed amounts. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal and recurring items) necessary to present fairly the Company’s financial position as of September 30, 2021, results of operations and changes in stockholder's equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. Interim results are not necessarily indicative of full year performance because of the impact of seasonal and short-term variations. As discussed in Note 1 — Business Organization, Carvana Group is considered a VIE and Carvana Co. consolidates its financial results due to the determination that it is the primary beneficiary. Liquidity Since inception, the Company has incurred losses, and expects to incur additional losses in the future as it continues to build inspection and reconditioning centers ("IRCs") and vending machines, serve more of the U.S. population, and enhance technology and software. Since March 31, 2020, the Company has completed equity offerings of approximately 18 million shares of Class A common stock for net proceeds of approximately $1.1 billion and has issued a total of $2.5 billion in senior unsecured notes due between 2025 and 2029, from which approximately $627 million of the proceeds were used to repay its senior unsecured notes due in 2023. In March 2021, the Company's forward flow partner committed to purchase a total of $4.0 billion of the Company's finance receivables through March 2022, and such facility had approximately $2.3 billion of unused capacity as of September 30, 2021. In addition, the Company has a $1.75 billion floor plan facility effective through March 31, 2023. Management believes that current working capital, results of operations, and existing financing arrangements are sufficient to fund operations for at least one year from the financial statement issuance date. Use of Estimates The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Certain accounting estimates involve significant judgments, assumptions and estimates by management that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, which management considers to be critical accounting estimates. The judgments, assumptions and estimates used by management are based on historical experience, management’s experience, and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and assumptions made by management, actual results could differ materially from these judgments and estimates, which could have a material impact on the carrying values of the Company’s assets and liabilities and the results of operations. Adoption of New Accounting Standards In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU 2020-04"). ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time related to contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The standard is effective from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022 that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The Company may elect to take advantage of this optional guidance in its transition away from LIBOR within certain debt contracts but does not expect a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope ("ASU 2021-01"), which refines the scope of Topic 848 and clarifies some of its guidance as part of the FASB's monitoring of global reference rate activities. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had not modified any contracts or had any hedge accounting activity in which it utilized the optional guidance under ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASU 2019-12"). ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2021 and it did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. |

Related Party Transactions [Abstract] | |
Related Party Transactions | NOTE 6 — RELATED PARTY TRANSACTIONS Lease Agreements In November 2014, the Company and DriveTime Automotive Group (together with its consolidated affiliates, collectively "DriveTime") entered into a lease agreement that governs the Company’s access to and utilization of temporary storage, reconditioning, office and parking space at various DriveTime facilities (the "DriveTime Lease Agreement"). The DriveTime Lease Agreement was most recently amended in December 2018. Lease duration varies by location, with cancellable terms, provided 60 days' prior written notice is given, expiring between 2021 and 2024. The Company has the right to exercise up to two consecutive one-year renewal options at up to ten of these locations, less the number of locations renewed under the DriveTime Hub Lease Agreement described below. In March 2017, the Company and DriveTime entered into a lease agreement that governs the Company's access to and utilization of office and parking space at various DriveTime facilities (the "DriveTime Hub Lease Agreement"). The DriveTime Hub Lease Agreement was most recently amended in July 2021 to adjust which locations are covered under the Agreement. Lease expiration varies by location with most having cancellable terms, provided 60 days' prior written notice is given, expiring in 2022 and the Company having the right to exercise up to two consecutive one-year renewal options at up to ten of these locations, less the number of locations renewed under the DriveTime Lease Agreement described above. The DriveTime Lease Agreement and the DriveTime Hub Lease Agreement both have non-cancellable lease terms of less than twelve months with rights to terminate at the Company's election with 60 days' prior written notice and extension options as described above. At non-reconditioning locations, it is not reasonably certain that the Company will exercise its options to extend the leases or abstain from exercising its termination rights within these lease agreements to create a lease term greater than one year and therefore the Company accounts for them as short-term leases. For these locations, the Company makes variable monthly lease payments based on its pro rata utilization of space at each facility plus a pro rata share of each facility’s actual insurance costs and real estate taxes. Management has determined that the costs allocated to the Company are based on a reasonable methodology. The DriveTime Lease Agreement includes the Blue Mound and Delanco IRCs. At both of these locations, the Company expects to extend the lease terms beyond twelve months, therefore those locations are not considered short-term leases. The Company occupies all of the space at these IRCs and makes monthly lease payments based on DriveTime's actual rent expense. In addition, the Company is responsible for the actual insurance costs and real estate taxes at these IRC locations. At all locations, the Company is additionally responsible for paying for any tenant improvements it requires to conduct its operations. Management has determined that the costs allocated to the Company are based on a reasonable methodology. In 2016 and 2018, the Company entered into lease agreements related to an IRC in Tolleson, Arizona, with Verde Investments, Inc., an affiliate of DriveTime ("Verde"), with an initial term of approximately 15 years. In September 2020, to consummate a sale leaseback transaction with an unrelated third party, the Company exercised a pre-existing option to purchase the leased land and related assets from Verde for its net book value of approximately $22 million thus terminating the lease agreements. The Company immediately sold such land and related assets along with the Company's leasehold improvements at the IRC to a third party who simultaneously leased back the land and the IRC to the Company. In February 2017, the Company entered into a lease agreement with DriveTime for sole occupancy of a fully operational IRC in Winder, Georgia, where the Company previously maintained partial occupancy. The lease has an initial term of eight years, subject to the Company's ability to exercise three renewal options of five years each. In November 2018, the Company entered into a lease agreement with DriveTime of a fully operational IRC near Cleveland, Ohio. DriveTime vacated the facility in February 2019, at which point the Company became the sole occupant and began leasing the full facility from DriveTime. The lease has an initial term of three years, subject to the Company's ability to exercise three renewal options of five years each. In July 2021, the Company exercised the first renewal option to extend through October 2026 and agreed to assume the lease from DriveTime effective October 1, 2021. Expenses related to these operating lease agreements are allocated based on usage to inventory and selling, general and administrative expenses in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets and statements of operations. Costs allocated to inventory are recognized as cost of sales when the inventory is sold. During the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, total costs related to these operating lease agreements, including those noted above, were approximately $1 million and $2 million, respectively, allocated between inventory and selling, general and administrative expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, total costs related to these lease agreements were approximately $4 million with approximately $2 million allocated to both inventory and selling, general and administrative expenses. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, total costs related to these lease agreements were approximately $6 million with approximately $2 million and $4 million allocated to inventory and selling, general and administrative expenses, respectively. In February 2019, the Company entered into an agreement to assume a lease of an IRC near Nashville, Tennessee that DriveTime leased from an unrelated landlord. The lease expires in four years, subject to the ability to exercise three renewal options of five years each. DriveTime remained an occupant of the facility through April 1, 2019, after which the Company became the sole occupant, but is not fully released from the lease obligations by the landlord. Corporate Office Leases In September 2016, the Company entered into a lease for the second floor of its corporate headquarters in Tempe, Arizona. In connection with that lease, the Company entered into a sublease with DriveTime for the use of the first floor of the same building. The lease and sublease each have a term of 83 months, subject to the right to exercise three five-year extension options. Pursuant to the sublease, the Company will pay the rent equal to the amounts due under DriveTime's master lease directly to DriveTime's landlord. The rent expense incurred related to this first floor sublease was less than $1 million during each of the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and approximately $1 million during each of the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. In December 2019, Verde purchased an office building in Tempe, Arizona that the Company leased from an unrelated landlord prior to Verde's purchase. In connection with the purchase, Verde assumed that lease. The lease has an initial term of ten years, subject to the right to exercise two five-year extension options. The rent expense incurred under the lease with Verde was less than $1 million during each of the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and approximately $1 million during each of the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. Wholesale Revenue In 2020, DriveTime began purchasing wholesale vehicles from the Company through competitive online auctions that are managed by an unrelated third party. As a result, the Company recognized approximately $15 million and $37 million of wholesale revenue from DriveTime during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, and approximately $1 million during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. Retail Vehicle Acquisitions During the second quarter of 2021, the Company began acquiring retail vehicles from DriveTime that were reconditioned to meet the Company's required vehicle quality standards. As of September 30, 2021, approximately $47 million of these vehicles were included in vehicle inventory in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The Company also recognized approximately $17 million and $19 million of cost of goods sold during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, respectively, related to vehicles acquired from DriveTime. Master Dealer Agreement In December 2016, the Company entered into a master dealer agreement with DriveTime (the "Master Dealer Agreement"), pursuant to which the Company may sell VSCs to customers purchasing a vehicle from the Company. The Company earns a commission on each VSC sold to its customers, and DriveTime is obligated by and subsequently administers the VSCs. The Company collects the retail purchase price of the VSCs from its customers and remits the purchase price net of commission to DriveTime. During the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized approximately $47 million and $22 million, respectively, and during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized approximately $130 million and $60 million, respectively, of commissions earned on VSCs sold to its customers and administered by DriveTime, net of a reserve for estimated contract cancellations. The commission earned on the sale of these VSCs is included in other sales and revenues in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. In November 2018, the Company amended the Master Dealer Agreement to allow the Company to receive payments for excess reserves based on the performance of the VSCs. In August 2020 and April 2021, the Company and DriveTime amended the Master Dealer Agreement to adjust excess reserve payment calculations and timing and the scope of DriveTime's after-sale administration services. The Company recognized approximately $5 million and $4 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and approximately $13 million and $9 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to payments for excess reserves to which it expects to be entitled, which is included in other sales and revenues in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Beginning in 2017, DriveTime also administers the Company's limited warranty provided to all customers and a portion of the Company's GAP waiver coverage under the Master Dealer Agreement. The Company pays a per-vehicle fee to DriveTime to administer the limited warranty included with every purchase and prior to the first quarter of 2020 paid a per-contract fee to DriveTime to administer a portion of the GAP waiver coverage it sells to its customers. Since the first quarter of 2020, the Company's GAP waiver coverage sales have been administered by an unrelated party. The Company incurred approximately $5 million and $1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and approximately $11 million and $4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to the administration of limited warranty and GAP waiver coverage. Servicing and Administrative Fees DriveTime provides servicing and administrative functions associated with the Company's finance receivables. The Company incurred expenses of approximately $2 million and $1 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and approximately $5 million and $4 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, related to these services. Aircraft Time Sharing Agreement The Company entered into an agreement to share usage of two aircraft owned by Verde and operated by DriveTime on October 22, 2015, and the agreement was subsequently amended in 2017. Pursuant to the agreement, the Company agreed to reimburse DriveTime for actual expenses for each of its flights. The original agreement was for 12 months, with perpetual 12-month automatic renewals. Either the Company or DriveTime can terminate the agreement with 30 days’ prior written notice. The Company reimbursed DriveTime less than $1 million under this agreement during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. Shared Services Agreement with DriveTime In November 2014, the Company and DriveTime entered into a shared services agreement whereby DriveTime provided certain accounting and tax, legal and compliance, information technology, telecommunications, benefits, insurance, real estate, equipment, corporate communications, software and production, and other services primarily to facilitate the transition of these services to the Company on a standalone basis (the "Shared Services Agreement"). The Shared Services Agreement was most recently amended and restated in February 2021 and operates on a year-to-year basis, with the Company having the right to terminate any or all services with 30 days' prior written notice and DriveTime having the right to terminate any or all services with 90 days' prior written notice. Charges allocated to the Company are based on the Company’s actual use of the specific services detailed in the Shared Services Agreement. The Company incurred less than $1 million in expenses related to the Shared Services Agreement during each of the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020. Accounts Payable Due to Related Party As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, approximately $23 million and $16 million, respectively, was due to related parties primarily related to the agreements mentioned above, and is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. |

Transfers and Servicing [Abstract] | |
Finance Receivable Sale Agreements | NOTE 7 — FINANCE RECEIVABLE SALE AGREEMENTS The Company originates loans for its customers and sells them to partners and investors pursuant to finance receivable sale agreements. Historically, the Company has sold loans through two types of arrangements: forward flow agreements, including a master purchase and sale agreement and master transfer agreements, and fixed pool loan sales, including securitization transactions. Master Purchase and Sale Agreement In December 2016, the Company entered into a master purchase and sale agreement (the "Master Purchase and Sale Agreement" or "MPSA") with Ally Bank and Ally Financial (collectively the "Ally Parties"). Pursuant to the MPSA, the Company sells finance receivables meeting certain underwriting criteria under a committed forward flow arrangement without recourse to the Company for their post-sale performance. Throughout 2020 and 2021, the Company and the Ally Parties have amended the MPSA to, among other things and subject to the terms of the agreement, broaden the set of finance receivables covered by the MPSA and provide additional flexibility in the timing of sales of finance receivables. In March 2021, the Ally Parties committed to purchase up to a maximum of $4.0 billion of principal balances of finance receivables through March 2022. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company sold approximately $1.7 billion and $1.8 billion, respectively, in principal balances of finance receivables under the MPSA and had approximately $2.3 billion of unused capacity as of September 30, 2021. Securitization Transactions The Company sponsors and establishes securitization trusts to purchase finance receivables from the Company. The securitization trusts issue asset-backed securities, some of which are collateralized by the finance receivables that the Company sells to the securitization trusts. Upon sale of the finance receivables to the securitization trusts, the Company recognizes a gain or loss on sales of finance receivables. The net proceeds from the sales are the fair value of the assets obtained as part of the transactions and typically include cash and at least 5% of the beneficial interests issued by the securitization trusts to comply with Risk Retention Rules, as further discussed in Note 8 — Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company sold approximately $3.4 billion and $495 million, respectively, in principal balances of finance receivables through securitization transactions. Gain on Loan Sales The total gain related to finance receivables sold to financing partners and pursuant to securitization transactions was approximately $191 million and $77 million during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and $529 million and $129 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, which is included in other sales and revenues in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. |

Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities | NOTE 8 — SECURITIZATIONS AND VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITIES As noted in Note 7 — Finance Receivable Sale Agreements, the Company sponsors and establishes securitization trusts to purchase finance receivables from the Company. The securitization trusts issue asset-backed securities, some of which are collateralized by the finance receivables that the Company sells to the securitization trusts. Upon sale of the finance receivables to the securitization trusts, the Company recognizes a gain or loss on sales of finance receivables. The net proceeds from the sales are the fair value of the assets obtained as part of the transactions and typically include cash and at least 5% of the beneficial interests issued by the securitization trusts to comply with Regulation RR of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (the "Risk Retention Rules"). The beneficial interests retained by the Company include but are not limited to rated notes and certificates of the securitization trusts. The holders of the certificates issued by the securitization trusts have rights to cash flows only after the holders of the notes issued by the securitization trusts have received their contractual cash flows. The securitization trusts have no direct recourse to the Company’s assets, and holders of the securities issued by the securitization trusts can look only to the assets of the securitization trusts that issued their securities for payment. The beneficial interests held by the Company are subject principally to the credit and prepayment risk stemming from the underlying finance receivables. The securitization trusts established in connection with asset-backed securitization transactions are VIEs. For each VIE that the Company establishes in its role as sponsor of securitization transactions, it performs an analysis to determine whether or not it is the primary beneficiary of the VIE. The Company’s continuing involvement with the VIEs consists of retaining a portion of the securities issued by the VIEs and performing ministerial duties as the trust administrator. As of September 30, 2021, the Company is not the primary beneficiary of these securitization trusts because its retained interests in the VIEs do not have exposures to losses or benefits that could potentially be significant to the VIEs. The Company does not consolidate the securitization trusts. The assets the Company retains in the unconsolidated VIEs are presented as beneficial interests in securitizations on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, which as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were approximately $312 million and $131 million, respectively. The Company held no other assets or liabilities related to its involvement with unconsolidated VIEs as of September 30, 2021. The following table summarizes the carrying value and total exposure to losses of its assets related to unconsolidated VIEs with which the Company has continuing involvement, but is not the primary beneficiary at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. Total exposure represents the estimated loss the Company would incur under severe, hypothetical circumstances, such as if the value of the interests in the securitization trusts and any associated collateral declined to zero. The Company believes the possibility of this is remote. As such, the total exposure presented below is not an indication of the Company's expected losses. September 30, 2021 December 31, 2020 Carrying Value Total Exposure Carrying Value Total Exposure (in millions) Rated notes $ 229 $ 229 $ 98 $ 98 Certificates and other assets 83 83 33 33 Total unconsolidated VIEs $ 312 $ 312 $ 131 $ 131 The beneficial interests in securitizations are considered securities available for sale subject to restrictions on transfer pursuant to the Company’s obligations as a sponsor under Risk Retention Rules.

Debt Instruments | NOTE 9 — DEBT INSTRUMENTS Short-Term Revolving Facilities Floor Plan Facility The Company has a floor plan facility with a lender to finance its used vehicle inventory (the "Floor Plan Facility"), which is secured by the Company's vehicles, general intangibles, accounts receivable, and finance receivables. Under the Floor Plan Facility, repayment of amounts drawn for the purchase of a vehicle should generally be made within several days after selling or otherwise disposing of the vehicle. Outstanding balances related to vehicles held in inventory for more than 180 days require monthly principal payments equal to 10% of the original principal amount of that vehicle until the remaining outstanding balance is the lesser of (i) 50% of the original principal amount or (ii) 50% of the wholesale value. Prepayments may be made without incurring a premium or penalty. Additionally, the Company is permitted to make prepayments to the lender to be held as principal payments under the Floor Plan Facility and subsequently reborrow such amounts. The Floor Plan Facility also requires monthly interest payments and that at least 7.5% of the total principal amount owed to the lender is held as restricted cash. Effective October 1, 2020, the Company amended the Floor Plan Facility to increase the line of credit to $1.25 billion, reduce the interest rate to one-month LIBOR plus 3.15% and extend the maturity date to March 31, 2023. Effective March 1, 2021, the interest rate was reduced to one-month LIBOR plus 2.65%. Effective July 1, 2021, the line of credit was increased to $1.75 billion, and the LIBOR-based interest rate was amended to a substantially similar rate tied to a prime rate minus 0.50%, in advance of the cessation of LIBOR. The Company is also required to pay the lender an availability fee based on the average unused capacity during the prior calendar quarter. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the effective interest rate on the Floor Plan Facility was approximately 2.62%. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had an outstanding balance under this facility of approximately $455 million, unused capacity of approximately $1.3 billion, and held approximately $34 million in restricted cash related to this facility. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the effective interest rate on the Floor Plan Facility was approximately 3.87%. As of December 31, 2020, the Company had an outstanding balance of approximately $40 million, unused capacity of approximately $1.2 billion, and held approximately $3 million in restricted cash related to this facility. Active Finance Receivable Facilities The Company has various short-term revolving credit facilities to fund certain automotive finance receivables originated by the Company prior to selling them, which are typically secured by the finance receivables pledged to them (the "Finance Receivable Facilities"). In January 2020, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which a lender agreed to provide a revolving credit facility, which was subsequently increased to $500 million, to fund certain automotive finance receivables originated by the Company. In June 2021, the Company amended its agreement to, among other things, extend the maturity date to January 24, 2023. In February 2020, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which a second lender agreed to provide a $500 million revolving credit facility to fund certain automotive finance receivables originated by the Company. The Company can draw upon this facility until February 20, 2022. On April 30, 2021, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which a third lender agreed to provide a $500 million revolving credit facility to fund certain automotive finance receivables originated by the Company. The Company can draw upon this facility until October 30, 2022. The facilities require that any undistributed amounts collected on the pledged finance receivables be held as restricted cash. The facilities require monthly payments of interest and fees based on usage and unused facility amounts. The facilities self-amortize from the end of the draw period until maturity, offer full prepayment rights, and have no credit sublimits or aging restrictions, subject to negotiated concentration limits. The subsidiaries that entered into these facilities are each wholly-owned, special purpose entities whose assets are not available to the general creditors of the Company. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no amounts outstanding under these facilities, unused capacity of approximately $1.5 billion and $1.0 billion, respectively, and held approximately $57 million and $25 million, respectively, in restricted cash related to these facilities. During the three months ended September 30, 2021, the Company's effective interest rate on these facilities was approximately 1.62%. For the year ended December 31, 2020, the Company's effective interest rate on these facilities was approximately 2.77%. Past Finance Receivable Facilities In April 2019, the Company entered into an agreement pursuant to which Ally Bank agreed to provide a $300 million revolving credit facility to fund certain automotive finance receivables originated by the Company. The Company could draw upon this credit facility until April 17, 2020, and it had an annual interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus a spread ranging from 1.00% to 1.80%. In May 2019, the Company and Ally Bank entered into a separate agreement to provide an additional $350 million revolving credit facility to fund certain other automotive finance receivables originated by the Company. The Company could draw upon this credit facility until April 17, 2020, and it had an annual interest rate of one-month LIBOR plus 1.95%. Both credit facilities required that at least 2% of the outstanding pledged finance receivables principal balances, plus any undistributed amounts collected on the pledged finance receivables amount, be held as restricted cash. Interest payments on these credit facilities were payable monthly on each draw date. Principal repayments occurred on the fifteenth day of each calendar month in an amount equal to the undistributed receivables collected. The Company voluntarily terminated these facilities in February 2020 after entering into the active finance receivable facilities described above.

In connection with the issuance of the 2029 Notes, 2027 Notes, 2025 Notes and 2028 Notes, Carvana Group issued preferred units, which Carvana Co. purchased with its net proceeds from each issuance, as further discussed in Note 10 — Stockholders' Equity. The Indentures contain restrictive covenants that limit the ability of the Company and certain of its subsidiaries to, among other things and subject to certain exceptions, incur additional debt or issue preferred stock, create new liens, make intercompany payments, pay dividends and make other distributions in respect of the Company's capital stock, redeem or repurchase the Company’s capital stock or prepay subordinated indebtedness, make certain investments or certain other restricted payments, guarantee indebtedness, designate unrestricted subsidiaries, sell certain kinds of assets, enter into certain types of transactions with affiliates, and effect mergers or consolidations. Certain of these covenants will be suspended if the 2029 Notes, 2027 Notes, 2025 Notes, and 2028 Notes are assigned an investment grade rating from any two of Moody’s Investors Service, Inc., Standard & Poor’s Rating Services, and Fitch Ratings, Inc., and there is no continuing default. As of September 30, 2021, the Company was in compliance with all covenants. The outstanding principal of the Senior Notes, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, was approximately $2.4 billion and $1.1 billion as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, and is included in long-term debt in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. 2023 Senior Unsecured Notes On September 21, 2018, the Company issued an aggregate of $350 million in senior unsecured notes due 2023 (the "2023 Original Notes") under an indenture entered into by and among the Company, each of the guarantors party thereto and U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee (the "2023 Indenture"). On May 24, 2019, the Company issued $250 million in aggregate principal amount of additional notes (the "2023 Additional Notes") under the Indenture, at a 100.5% premium. The 2023 Original Notes and 2023 Additional Notes (together the "2023 Notes") were treated as a single class for all purposes and had the same terms. The 2023 Notes accrued interest at a rate of 8.875% per annum, which was payable semi-annually in arrears on April 1 and October 1 of each year. In connection with the issuance of the 2023 Notes, Carvana Group amended its LLC Agreement to create a class of non-convertible preferred units, which Carvana Co. purchased with its net proceeds from the issuance of the 2023 Notes, as further discussed in Note 10 — Stockholders' Equity. On October 2, 2020, the Company used approximately $627 million of the proceeds from the issuance of its 2025 and 2028 Notes, described above, to redeem in full the $600 million aggregate principal amount of its 2023 Notes by exercising its option to redeem all of the 2023 Notes at the redemption price set forth in the 2023 Indenture, plus accrued interest. The Company incurred approximately $34 million of debt extinguishment costs, including approximately $27 million of redemption premium and approximately $7 million related to derecognizing unamortized debt issuance costs and premium. Notes Payable The Company has entered into promissory note and disbursement agreements to finance certain equipment for its transportation fleet and building improvements. The assets financed with the proceeds from these notes serve as the collateral for each note and certain security agreements related to these assets have cross collateralization and cross default provisions with respect to one another. Each note has a fixed annual interest rate, a two Real Estate Financing The Company finances certain purchases and construction of its property and equipment through various sale and leaseback transactions. As of September 30, 2021, none of these transactions have qualified for sale accounting due to meeting the criteria for finance leases, or forms of continuing involvement, such as repurchase options or renewal periods that extend the lease for substantially all of the asset's remaining useful life, and are therefore accounted for as financing transactions. These arrangements require monthly payments and have initial terms of 20 to 25 years. Some of the agreements are subject to renewal options of up to 25 years and some are subject to base rent increases throughout the term. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the outstanding liability associated with these sale and leaseback arrangements, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, was approximately $420 million and $385 million, respectively, and was included in long-term debt in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Financing of Beneficial Interests in Securitizations As discussed in Note 8 — Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities, the Company has retained certain beneficial interests in securitizations pursuant to the Company’s obligations as a sponsor under Risk Retention Rules. Beginning in June 2019, the Company entered into secured borrowing facilities through which it finances certain retained beneficial interests in securitizations whereby the Company sells such interests and agrees to repurchase them for their fair value at a stated time of repurchase. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has pledged approximately $199 million and $81 million, respectively, of its beneficial interests in securitizations as collateral under the repurchase agreements with expected repurchases ranging from July 2024 to September 2028. The securitization trusts distribute payments related to the Company's pledged beneficial interests in securitizations directly to the lenders, which reduces the beneficial interests in securitizations and the related debt balance. Pledged collateral levels are monitored daily and are generally maintained at an agreed-upon percentage of the fair value of the amounts borrowed during the life of the transactions. In the event of a decline in the fair value of the pledged collateral, the repurchase price of the pledged collateral will be increased by the amount of the decline. The outstanding balance of these facilities, net of unamortized debt issuance costs, was approximately $197 million and $79 million as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, respectively, of which approximately $22 million was included in current portion of long-term debt in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets as of each date. |

Equity [Abstract] | |
Stockholders' Equity | NOTE 10 — STOCKHOLDERS' EQUITY Organizational Transactions Carvana Co.'s amended and restated certificate of incorporation, among other things authorizes (i) 50 million shares of Preferred Stock, par value $0.01 per share, (ii) 500 million shares of Class A common stock, par value $0.001 per share, and (iii) 125 million shares of Class B common stock, par value $0.001 per share. Each share of Class A common stock generally entitles its holder to one vote on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Each share of Class B common stock held by Ernest Garcia II, Ernest Garcia III, and entities controlled by one or both of them (collectively the "Garcia Parties") generally entitles its holder to ten votes on all matters to be voted on by stockholders, for so long as the Garcia Parties maintain direct or indirect beneficial ownership of at least 25% of the outstanding shares of Carvana Co.'s Class A common stock, determined on an as-exchanged basis, assuming that all of the Class A Units and Class B Units were exchanged for Class A common stock. All other shares of Class B common stock generally entitle their holders to one vote per share on all matters to be voted on by stockholders. Holders of Class B common stock are not entitled to receive dividends and would not be entitled to receive any distributions upon the liquidation, dissolution or winding down of the Company. Holders of Class A and Class B common stock vote together as a single class on all matters presented to stockholders for their vote or approval, except as otherwise required by applicable law. Carvana Group's amended and restated LLC Agreement provides for two classes of common ownership interests in Carvana Group: (i) Class A Units and (ii) Class B Units (together, the "LLC Units"). Carvana Co. is required to, at all times, maintain (i) a four-to-five ratio between the number of shares of Class A common stock issued and outstanding by Carvana Co. and the number of Class A Units owned by Carvana Co. (subject to certain exceptions for treasury shares and shares underlying certain convertible or exchangeable securities and subject to adjustment as set forth in the exchange agreement (the "Exchange Agreement") further discussed below, and taking into account Carvana Co. Sub, LLC's 0.1% ownership interest in Carvana, LLC) and (ii) a four-to-five ratio between the number of shares of Class B common stock owned by the original holders of LLC units prior to the IPO (the "Original LLC Unitholders") and the number of Class A Units owned by the Original LLC Unitholders. The Company may issue shares of Class B common stock only to the extent necessary to maintain these ratios. Shares of Class B common stock are transferable only if an Original LLC Unitholder elects to exchange them, together with 1.25 times as many LLC Units, for consideration from the Company. Such consideration from the Company can be, at the Company’s election, either shares of Class A common stock or cash. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, there were approximately 216 million and 215 million Class A Units, respectively, and 3 million Class B Units, for both periods presented, (as adjusted for the participation thresholds and closing price of Class A common stock on September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020), issued and outstanding. As discussed in Note 12 — Equity-Based Compensation, Class B Units were issued under the Company’s LLC Equity Incentive Plan (the "LLC Equity Incentive Plan") and are subject to a participation threshold, and are earned over the requisite service period. Equity Offerings On April 1, 2020, the Company completed a registered direct offering to investors of approximately 13.3 million shares of its Class A common stock at an offering price of $45.00 per share and received net proceeds from the offering of approximately $600 million. Ernest Garcia II, through Verde, and Ernest Garcia III each invested approximately $25 million or approximately 0.6 million shares of the Class A common stock, in the offering. The Company used the net proceeds to purchase approximately 16.7 million newly-issued LLC Units in Carvana Group. On May 21, 2020, the Company completed a public equity offering of 5 million shares of its Class A common stock at an offering price of $92.00 per share and received net proceeds from the offering of approximately $459 million. The Company used the net proceeds to purchase approximately 6.3 million newly-issued LLC Units in Carvana Group. Exchange Agreement Carvana Co. and the Original LLC Unitholders together with any holders of LLC Units issued subsequent to the IPO (together, the "LLC Unitholders") entered into an Exchange Agreement under which each LLC Unitholder (and certain permitted transferees thereof) may receive shares of the Company's Class A common stock in exchange for their LLC Units on a four-to-five conversion ratio, or cash at the option of the Company, subject to (i) conversion ratio adjustments for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications and similar transactions, (ii) vesting for certain LLC Units, and (iii) the respective participation threshold for Class B Units. To the extent such owners also hold Class B common stock, they are required to deliver to Carvana Co. a number of shares of Class B common stock equal to the number of shares of Class A common stock being exchanged for. Any shares of Class B common stock so delivered are canceled. The number of exchangeable Class B Units is determined based on the value of Carvana Co.'s Class A common stock and the applicable participation threshold. During the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, certain LLC Unitholders exchanged approximately 3 million and less than 1 million LLC Units and approximately 2 million and less than 1 million shares of Class B common stock for approximately 3 million and less than 1 million newly-issued shares of Class A common stock, respectively. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, certain LLC Unitholders exchanged approximately 11 million and 2 million LLC Units and approximately 8 million and less than 1 million shares of Class B common stock for approximately 9 million and less than 1 million newly-issued shares of Class A common stock, respectively. Simultaneously, and in connection with these exchanges, Carvana Co. received approximately 3 million and 1 million LLC Units during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and approximately 11 million and 2 million LLC Units during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, increasing its total ownership interest in Carvana Group, and canceled the exchanged shares of Class B common stock. Class A Non-Convertible Preferred Units On October 2, 2018, Carvana Group, LLC amended its LLC Agreement to create a class of non-convertible preferred units (the "Class A Non-Convertible Preferred Units"), effective September 21, 2018. The Class A Non-Convertible Preferred Units were created in connection with Carvana Co.'s issuance of its Senior Notes, as discussed further and defined in Note 9 — Debt Instruments. On October 2, 2020, Carvana Group, LLC amended and restated its LLC Agreement to, among other things, authorize the issuance of 1.1 million Class A Non-Convertible Preferred Units to be sold to Carvana Co. in connection with the issuance of its 2025 and 2028 Notes and authorize the issuance of additional Class A Non-Convertible Preferred Units, in each case in consideration for the capital contribution made or deemed to have been made by Carvana Co. of the net proceeds of senior unsecured notes issuances. On March 29, 2021, Carvana Group, LLC issued 0.6 million Class A Non-Convertible Preferred Units in connection with the issuance of its 2027 Notes. On August 16, 2021, Carvana Group LLC issued approximately 0.8 million Class A Non-Convertible Preferred Units in connection with the issuance of its 2029 Notes. Carvana Co. used its net proceeds from the 2023 Notes, the 2025 and 2028 Notes the 2027 Notes, and the 2029 Notes, to purchase 0.6 million, 1.1 million, 0.6 million, and 0.8 million, respectively, of Class A Non-Convertible Preferred Units. When Carvana Co. makes payments on the Senior Notes, Carvana Group makes an equal cash distribution, as necessary, to the Class A Non-Convertible Preferred Units. For each $1,000 principal amount of Senior Notes that Carvana Co. repays or otherwise retires, one Class A Non-Convertible Preferred Unit is canceled and retired. As discussed further in Note 9 — Debt Instruments, the Company redeemed its 2023 Notes on October 2, 2020 using a portion of its net proceeds from the issuance of its 2025 and 2028 Notes, at which point 0.6 million Class A Non-Convertible Preferred Units were canceled and retired. |

Noncontrolling Interest [Abstract] | |
Non-controlling Interests | NOTE 11 — NON-CONTROLLING INTERESTS As discussed in Note 1 — Business Organization, Carvana Co. consolidates the financial results of Carvana Group and reports a non-controlling interest related to the portion of Carvana Group owned by the LLC Unitholders. Changes in the ownership interest in Carvana Group while Carvana Co. retains its controlling interest will be accounted for as equity transactions. Exchanges of LLC Units result in a change in ownership and reduce the amount recorded as non-controlling interests and increase additional paid-in capital. Upon the issuance of shares of Class A common stock by Carvana Co. related to the Company’s equity compensation plans such as the exercise of options, issuance of restricted or non-restricted stock, payment of bonuses in stock or settlement of stock appreciation rights in stock, Carvana Group is required to issue to Carvana Co. a number of Class A Units equal to 1.25 times the number of shares of Class A common stock being issued in connection with the exercise of such options or issuance of other types of equity compensation, subject to adjustment for stock splits, stock dividends, reclassifications and similar transactions. Activity related to the Company's equity compensation plans may result in a change in ownership which will impact the amount recorded as non-controlling interest and additional paid-in capital. The non-controlling interest related to the Class B Units is determined based on the respective participation thresholds and the share price of Class A common stock on an as-converted basis. To the extent that the number of as-converted Class B Units change or Class B Units are forfeited, the resulting difference in ownership will be accounted for as equity transactions adjusting the non-controlling interest and additional paid-in capital. During the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the total adjustments related to exchanges of LLC Units were a decrease in non-controlling interests and a corresponding increase in additional paid-in capital of approximately $32 million and $6 million, respectively, which have been included in exchanges of LLC Units in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of stockholders' equity. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, Carvana Co. utilized its net proceeds from its equity offerings to purchase LLC Units, which resulted in adjustments to increase non-controlling interests and to decrease additional paid-in capital by approximately $643 million, which have been included in adjustment to non-controlling interests related to equity offerings in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of stockholders' equity. As of September 30, 2021, Carvana Co. owned approximately 48.9% of Carvana Group with the LLC Unitholders owning the remaining 51.1%. The net loss attributable to the non-controlling interests on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations represents the portion of the net loss attributable to the economic interest in Carvana Group held by the non-controlling LLC Unitholders calculated based on the weighted average non-controlling interests' ownership during the periods presented.

Equity-Based Compensation | NOTE 12 — EQUITY-BASED COMPENSATION Equity-based compensation is recognized based on amortizing the grant-date fair value on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period, which is generally the vesting period of the award, less actual forfeitures. A summary of equity-based compensation recognized during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 is as follows: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 (in millions) Class B Units $ — $ — $ — $ 1 Restricted Stock Units and Awards 11 5 26 15 Options 3 2 8 5 Class A Units — — 1 1 Total equity-based compensation 14 7 35 22 Equity-based compensation capitalized to property and equipment (3) (1) (6) (4) Equity-based compensation capitalized to inventory (1) — (1) — Equity-based compensation, net of capitalized amounts $ 10 $ 6 $ 28 $ 18 As of September 30, 2021, the total unrecognized compensation related to outstanding equity awards was approximately $103 million, which the Company expects to recognize over a weighted-average period of approximately 2.9 years. Total unrecognized equity-based compensation will be adjusted for actual forfeitures. 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan In connection with the IPO, the Company adopted the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the "2017 Incentive Plan"). Under the 2017 Incentive Plan, 14 million shares of Class A common stock are available for issuance, which the Company may grant as stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units and other stock-based awards to employees, directors, officers and consultants. The majority of equity granted by the Company vests over four year periods based on continued employment with the Company. As of September 30, 2021, approximately 10 million shares remain available for future equity award grants under this plan. Class A Units During 2018, the Company granted certain employees Class A Units with service-based vesting over two Class B Units In March 2015, Carvana Group adopted the LLC Equity Incentive Plan. Under the LLC Equity Incentive Plan, Carvana Group could grant Class B Units to eligible employees, non-employee officers, consultants and directors with service-based vesting, typically four Employee Stock Purchase Plan In May 2021, the Company adopted an employee stock purchase plan (the "ESPP"). The ESPP allows substantially all employees, excluding members of senior management, to acquire shares of the Company’s Class A common stock through payroll deductions over six-month offering periods. The per share purchase price is equal to 90% of the fair market value of a share of the Company’s Class A common stock on the last day of the offering period. Participant purchases are limited to a maximum of $10,000 of stock per calendar year. The Company is authorized to grant up to 0.5 million shares of Class A common stock under the ESPP. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has not issued any shares of Class A common stock and recognized less than $1 million of equity-based compensation expense related to the ESPP for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021. |

Net Loss Per Share | NOTE 13 — NET LOSS PER SHARE Basic and diluted net loss per share is computed by dividing the net loss attributable to Class A common stockholders by the weighted-average shares of Class A common stock outstanding during the period. Diluted net loss per share is computed by giving effect to all potentially dilutive shares. For all periods presented, potentially dilutive shares are excluded from diluted net loss per share because they have an anti-dilutive impact. The following table presents the calculation of basic and diluted net loss per share during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 (in millions, except number of shares, which are reflected in thousands, and per share amounts) Numerator: Net loss $ (68) $ (18) $ (105) $ (308) Net loss attributable to non-controlling interests (36) (11) (59) (200) Net loss attributable to Carvana Co.

As such, separate presentation of basic and diluted net loss per share of Class B common stock under the two-class method has not been presented. The following table presents potentially dilutive securities, as of the end of the period, excluded from the computations of diluted net loss per share of Class A common stock for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020.

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract] | |
Income Taxes | NOTE 14 — INCOME TAXES As described in Note 1 — Business Organization and Note 10 — Stockholders' Equity, as a result of the IPO, Carvana Co. began consolidating the financial results of Carvana Group. Carvana Group is treated as a partnership for U.S. federal and most applicable state and local income tax purposes. As a partnership, Carvana Group is not subject to U.S. federal and certain state and local income taxes. Any taxable income or loss generated by Carvana Group is passed through to and included in the taxable income or loss of its members, including Carvana Co., based on its economic interest held in Carvana Group. Carvana Co. was formed on November 29, 2016 and did not engage in any operations prior to the IPO. Carvana Co. is taxed as a corporation and is subject to U.S. federal, state, and local income taxes with respect to its allocable share of any taxable income or loss of Carvana Group, as well as any stand-alone income or loss generated by Carvana Co. As described in Note 10 — Stockholders' Equity, the Company acquired approximately 3 million and 1 million LLC Units during the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and approximately 11 million and 2 million LLC Units during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, in connection with exchanges with LLC Unitholders. During the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, the Company recorded a gross deferred tax asset of approximately $199 million and $47 million, respectively, and approximately $641 million and $56 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, associated with the basis difference in its investment in Carvana Group related to the acquisition of these LLC Units which is reflected as an increase to additional paid-in capital in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of stockholders' equity. As described in Note 10 — Stockholders' Equity, during the nine months ended September 30, 2020, Carvana Co. purchased a total of approximately 23 million newly issued LLC Units of Carvana Group in connection with a direct offering and a public equity offering. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company recognized a gross deferred tax asset of approximately $14 million associated with a portion of the basis difference resulting from this purchase of LLC Units which is reflected as an increase to additional paid-in capital in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of stockholders' equity. As described in Note 4 — Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Net, the Company acquired various intangible assets in connection with the acquisition of Car360 in 2018. As a result, the Company recognized a deferred tax liability of approximately $2 million which is reflected within other liabilities in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. The deferred tax liability will be amortized over five During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, management performed an assessment of the recoverability of deferred tax assets. Management determined, based on the accounting standards applicable to such assessment, that there was sufficient negative evidence as a result of the Company’s cumulative losses to conclude it was more likely than not that its deferred tax assets would not be realized and has recorded a full valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets. In the event that management was to determine that the Company would be able to realize its deferred tax assets in the future in excess of their net recorded amount, an adjustment to the valuation allowance would be made which would reduce the provision for income taxes. The Company recognizes uncertain income tax positions when it is more-likely-than-not the position will be sustained upon examination. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has not identified any uncertain tax positions and has not recognized any related reserves. The Company's effective tax rate for the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was an expense of 0.3% and 0.4%, respectively, and for the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020 was an expense of 0.2% and a benefit 0.1%, respectively. Tax Receivable Agreement Carvana Co. expects to obtain an increase in its share of the tax basis in the net assets of Carvana Group when LLC Units are exchanged by the LLC Unitholders and other qualifying transactions. As described in Note 10 — Stockholders' Equity, each change in outstanding shares of Class A common stock results in a corresponding increase or decrease in Carvana Co.'s ownership of LLC Units. The Company intends to treat any exchanges of LLC Units as direct purchases of LLC interests for U.S. federal income tax purposes. These increases in tax basis may reduce the amounts that Carvana Co. would otherwise pay in the future to various taxing authorities. They may also decrease gains (or increase losses) on future dispositions of certain capital assets to the extent tax basis is allocated to those capital assets. In connection with the IPO, the Company entered into a Tax Receivable Agreement ("TRA"). Under the TRA, the Company generally will be required to pay to the Original LLC Unitholders 85% of the amount of cash savings, if any, in U.S. federal, state or local tax that the Company actually realizes directly or indirectly (or are deemed to realize in certain circumstances) as a result of (i) certain tax attributes created as a result of any sales or exchanges (as determined for U.S. federal income tax purposes) to or with the Company of their interests in Carvana Group for shares of Carvana Co.'s Class A common stock or cash, including any basis adjustment relating to the assets of Carvana Group and (ii) tax benefits attributable to payments made under the TRA (including imputed interest). The Company expects to benefit from the remaining 15% of any tax benefits that it may actually realize. To the extent that the Company is unable to timely make payments under the TRA for any reason, such payments generally will be deferred and will accrue interest until paid. If the Internal Revenue Service or a state or local taxing authority challenges the tax basis adjustments that give rise to payments under the TRA and the tax basis adjustments are subsequently disallowed, the recipients of payments under the agreement will not reimburse the Company for any payments the Company previously made to them. Any such disallowance would be taken into account in determining future payments under the TRA and would, therefore, reduce the amount of any such future payments. Nevertheless, if the claimed tax benefits from the tax basis adjustments are disallowed, the Company’s payments under the TRA could exceed its actual tax savings, and the Company may not be able to recoup payments under the TRA that were calculated on the assumption that the disallowed tax savings were available. The TRA provides that if (i) certain mergers, asset sales, other forms of business combinations, or other changes of control were to occur, (ii) there is a material breach of any material obligations under the TRA; or (iii) the Company elects an early termination of the TRA, then the TRA will terminate and the Company's obligations, or the Company's successor’s obligations, under the TRA will accelerate and become due and payable, based on certain assumptions, including an assumption that the Company would have sufficient taxable income to fully utilize all potential future tax benefits that are subject to the TRA and that any LLC Units that have not been exchanged are deemed exchanged for the fair market value of the Company's Class A common stock at the time of termination. As of September 30, 2021, the Company has concluded based on applicable accounting standards, that it was more likely than not that its deferred tax assets subject to the TRA would not be realized; therefore, the Company has not recorded a liability related to the tax savings it may realize from utilization of such deferred tax assets. As of September 30, 2021, the total unrecorded TRA liability is approximately $1.3 billion. If utilization of the deferred tax assets subject to the TRA becomes more likely than not in the future, the Company will record a liability related to the TRA which will be recognized as expense within its consolidated statements of operations. |

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract] | |
Fair Value of Financial Instruments | NOTE 17 — FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS The Company holds certain assets that are required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis, and beneficial interests in securitizations for which it elected the fair value option. A description of the fair value hierarchy and the Company's methodologies are included in Note 2 — Summary of Significant Accounting Policies. The following tables are a summary of fair value measurements and hierarchy level at September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020: September 30, 2021 Carrying Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 (in millions) Assets: Money market funds (1) $ 1 $ 1 $ — $ — Beneficial interests in securitizations 312 — 65 247 December 31, 2020 Carrying Value Level 1 Level 2 Level 3 (in millions) Assets: Money market funds (1) $ 308 $ 308 $ — $ — Beneficial interests in securitizations 131 — — 131 _________________________ (1) Consists of highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less and classified in cash and cash equivalents in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company has purchase price adjustment receivables of approximately $31 million and $14 million, respectively, which are carried at fair value and classified as other assets in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets. Under the MPSA, the purchaser will make future cash payments to the Company based on the performance of the finance receivables sold. The fair value of the purchase price adjustment receivables are determined based on the extent to which the Company’s estimated performance of the underlying finance receivables exceeds a mutually agreed upon performance threshold of the underlying finance receivables as of measurement dates specified in the MPSA. The Company develops its estimate of future cumulative losses based on the historical performance of finance receivables it originated with similar characteristics as well as general macro-economic trends. The Company then utilizes a discounted cash flow model to calculate the present value of the expected future payment amounts. Due to the lack of observable market data these receivables are classified as Level 3. The adjustments to the fair value of the purchase price adjustment receivables were a gain of approximately $3 million during each of the three months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, and a gain of approximately $17 million and loss of approximately $2 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, and are reflected in other (income) expense, net in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. Beneficial Interests in Securitizations Beneficial interests in securitizations include notes and certificates of the securitization trusts, the same securities as issued to other investors as described in Note 8 — Securitizations and Variable Interest Entities. Beneficial interests in securitizations are initially treated as Level 2 assets when the securitization transaction occurs in close proximity to the end of the period and there is a lack of observable changes in the economic inputs. When the securitization transaction does not occur in close proximity to the end of the period and there have been observable changes in the economic inputs, beneficial interests in securitizations are classified as Level 3. The Company's beneficial interests in securitizations include rated notes and certificates and other assets, all of which are classified as Level 3 due to the lack of observable market data. The Company determines the fair value of its rated notes based on non-binding broker quotes. The non-binding broker quotes are based on models that consider the prevailing interest rates, recent market transactions, and current business conditions. The Company determines the fair value of its certificates and other assets using a combination of non-binding market quotes and internally developed discounted cash flow models. The discounted cash flow models use discount rates based on prevailing interest rates and the characteristics of the specific instruments. As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the discount rates were 0.9% to 10.0% and 1.4% to 10.0%, respectively. Significant increases or decreases in the inputs to the models could result in a significantly higher or lower fair value measurement. The Company elected the fair value option on its beneficial interests in securitizations, which allows it to recognize changes in the fair value of these assets in the period the fair value changes. Changes in the fair value of the beneficial interests in securitizations are reflected in other (income) expense, net in the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated statements of operations. For beneficial interests in securitizations measured at fair value on a recurring basis, the Company's transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy are deemed to have occurred at the beginning of the reporting period on a quarterly basis. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company transferred beneficial interests acquired as part of the December 2019 securitization transaction initially classified as Level 2 from Level 2 to Level 3. The assets were initially classified as Level 2 due to the transactions' proximity to the end of each respective reporting period and the lack of observable changes in economic inputs. As noted above, the Company uses significant unobservable inputs to measure the fair value of these assets on a recurring basis, thus they will be classified as Level 3 in future periods. There were no transfers out of Level 3 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 or 2020. The following table presents additional information about Level 3 beneficial interests in securitizations measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 and 2020: Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30, 2021 2020 2021 2020 (in millions) Opening Balance $ 239 $ 117 $ 131 $ 69 Transfers into Level 3 — — — 29 Received in securitization transactions 33 — 170 40 Cash receipts (27) (12) (60) (30) Change in fair value 2 7 6 4 Ending Balance $ 247 $ 112 $ 247 $ 112 Fair Value of Financial Instruments The carrying amounts of restricted cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities, and accounts payable to related party approximate fair value because their respective maturities are less than three months. The carrying value of the short-term revolving facilities were determined to approximate fair value due to their short-term duration and variable interest rates that approximate prevailing interest rates as of each reporting period. The carrying value of notes payable and sale leasebacks were determined to approximate fair value as each of the transactions were entered into at prevailing interest rates during each respective period and they have not materially changed as of or during the periods ended September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020. The carrying value of the financing of beneficial interests in securitizations was determined to approximate fair value because in the event of a decline in the fair value of the pledged collateral of the financing, the repurchase price of the pledged collateral will be increased by the amount of the decline. The fair value of the Senior Notes, which are not carried at fair value on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, was determined using Level 2 inputs based on quoted market prices for the identical liability. The fair value of the Senior Notes as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 was as follows: September 30, December 31, (in millions) Carrying value, net of unamortized debt issuance costs $ 2,421 $ 1,083 Fair value 2,469 1,121 The fair value of finance receivables, which are not carried at fair value on the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated balance sheets, was determined utilizing the estimated sales price based on the historical experience of the Company. Such fair value measurement of the finance receivables, net is considered Level 2 under the fair value hierarchy. The carrying value and fair value of the finance receivables as of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 were as follows: September 30, December 31, (in millions) Carrying value $ 368 $ 275 Fair value 404 300 Derivative Instruments As of September 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, the Company had no outstanding derivative instruments. |

Summary of Significant Accounting Policies (Policies) | 9 Months Ended |

Accounting Policies [Abstract] | |
Basis of Presentation | Basis of Presentation The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of the Company have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information. All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in annual financial statements have been condensed or omitted. The Company believes the disclosures made are adequate to prevent the information presented from being misleading. However, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included within the Company's most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed on February 25, 2021. In addition, in 2021, the Company has changed its presentation from thousands to millions and, as a result, any necessary rounding adjustments have been made to prior year disclosed amounts. |
Use of Estimates | Use of Estimates The preparation of these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions. Certain accounting estimates involve significant judgments, assumptions and estimates by management that have a material impact on the carrying value of certain assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period, which management considers to be critical accounting estimates. The judgments, assumptions and estimates used by management are based on historical experience, management’s experience, and other factors, which are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Because of the nature of the judgments and assumptions made by management, actual results could differ materially from these judgments and estimates, which could have a material impact on the carrying values of the Company’s assets and liabilities and the results of operations. |
Adoption of New Accounting Standards | Adoption of New Accounting Standards In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting ("ASU 2020-04"). ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time related to contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting. The standard is effective from March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022, except for hedging relationships existing as of December 31, 2022 that an entity has elected certain optional expedients for and that are retained through the end of the hedging relationship. The Company may elect to take advantage of this optional guidance in its transition away from LIBOR within certain debt contracts but does not expect a material impact on its consolidated financial statements. In January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2021-01, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Scope ("ASU 2021-01"), which refines the scope of Topic 848 and clarifies some of its guidance as part of the FASB's monitoring of global reference rate activities. As of September 30, 2021, the Company had not modified any contracts or had any hedge accounting activity in which it utilized the optional guidance under ASU 2020-04 and ASU 2021-01. In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes ("ASU 2019-12"). ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions to the general principles in Topic 740 and also clarifies and amends existing guidance to improve consistent application. The Company adopted ASU 2019-12 for its fiscal year beginning January 1, 2021 and it did not have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements. |
