Calculate how much your vehicle loses in value over time.
About This Calculator
A new car loses about 20% of its value in the first year — a $45,000 vehicle is worth $36,000 the day you drive it off the lot. After 5 years, it's worth roughly $24,000. Buying 2–3 year old certified pre-owned vehicles lets someone else absorb the steepest depreciation curve.
