Here is the pick of the TOP 10 models in today’s market with the lowest depreciation.
The monetary value of any vehicle decreases over time due to wear and tear or obsolescence. This reduction in the value is depreciation in fact, but it may be slower or faster depending on the type of automobile, its reliability, and actual operating conditions.
In today’s world, the old statement “a car loses half its value when it’s driven off the lot” is not entirely true, since modern vehicles mostly are reliable, safe, of good quality, and hold value well. Nevertheless, some models are better than others in terms of depreciation, and if you decide to resell such a car after some time, you can get more money back.
