Car Depreciation Calculator
Estimate how your vehicle's value changes over time using standard annual depreciation rates. Results are estimates based on a simple exponential model.
How depreciation is calculated
This calculator uses an exponential decay model: value after Y years = purchase price × (1 - annual rate)Y. For example, a $35,000 car at 15% annual depreciation would be worth about $15,530 after 5 years.
Actual depreciation depends on the specific make, model, trim, condition, mileage, accident history, and local market demand. Luxury vehicles and electric cars tend to depreciate faster. Use this as a general estimate only.
