The 25 cars that hold their value the best!
Need help buying your next car? Click www.carwow.co.uk/-help-me-carwow and my team and I will help you choose your ideal car at a fair price - from Mat Watson!
.............................................................
One unavoidable fact about buying a new car is that it'll lose some of its value as soon as you drive it off the forecourt.
With that in mind, have you ever wondered which car would be the best to buy to ensure you don't lose too much money when you try to sell it on in a few years? Well, we have, so we made this video!
We've pulled together a list of the 25 best cars for holding their value from each manufacturer based on them having done 24,000 miles three years after they were purchased. The question is, can you guess which manufacturer will come out on top? Let us know in the comments!

Привет, Ильич)))
curious how there's so many cars on this list, that are only a year old...
Based on optional final payments on a PCP agreement
This list absolutely stinks of bullshit to me for this reason too, though what is unclear is what agenda is driving the choice of cars.
That Aston Martin DBX figure was pure BS
kzhead.info/sun/iZeRXaailperooU/bejne.html
Yep. Nobody is going to pay 60% after 3 years on an already replaced 4 cylinder diesel Defender. Hell you get >20% discount at the dealer if you push it for one with 5 miles on it.
Much of this data is highly speculative, given that many of these cars are new on the market. Projected estimates of value are... well... just that.
Yes I noticed the same thing. How can you say how much the new land rover, pole star 2 oder model 3 depreciate, if there are only 1 year on the market.
Historically accurate. Surprisingly.
True.
Also the value of the car after 3 years is only applicable if you are buying the car from your pcp dealer. It would be less if trying to sell this privately or part ex with another dealer.
Maybe they've taken the figures from the manufacturers quoted minimal residual values for PCPs.

Thank you so much mat and the team u all helped me get my new ride. The new GR Yaris i got the trim level that mat reviewed and I'm proud of myself for doing that. Thank you carwow
I've been a fan of you guys for the longest time and you're the reason that I love cars. Thank you.
Cool to see how values are different from one country to the other. In North America, a Jeep Wrangler is holding its value like crazy. Followed very closely by any Subaru you can find, especially the Crosstrek. Winters drive the AWD cars way up, here. The CX-30 is holding its value like in UK, however. Maybe a tad more in North America, especially in Canada.
How do you guys know the depreciation of the DBX in 3 years when it hasn't even been on the market for 2
Extrapolation - Depreciation is a factor of a percentage drop, year on year. Eg. 100 x 0.86 (14% drop) = 86 86 x 0.86 (same %) = 73.96 73.96 x 0.86 = 63.6
@@joebloggs6351 It often leads to very inaccurate figures. The DBX and other new SUVs in this list will certainly face reliability issues that will cause massive depreciation
It would be based on the optional payment on a 3 year PCP agreement
@@ice-313 same foe land rover, I could bet it will lost more than they estimating
@@nathanielshaw5460 the optional payment figure is itself an estimation of depreciation, you may be in positive or negative equity come the end of the term if depreciation is better or worse than estimated.

Trust us, our figures are 100% correct! 😘
How can they guess the value in 3 years when the 765lt is not even 3 years old
@@carwow You got it messed up with the Prius, listen carefully again.
You are using predicted figures from matts language. Have all the cars listed been out over 3 years? Arnt there numerous vids about how mcl values are dropping like bricks?
@@carwow I’ll take your word for it babes 😘
the 2004-2007 Subaru WRX STi, Evo 8 and 9 and the Nismo 350z all hold their value pretty good. I think the future they are going to go up in price like crazy
The GR Yaris - it's gone up in value since sales began 👌
would be interested to see what Morgan's and Lotus depreciation is? I would have expected these to be in the top 15 list
Great to know that a car that just came into the market already has a depreciation value after 3 years. You guys are wonderful. Btw, can you estimate also lottery numbers?
They are going off the data provided to them and in the case of new launched cars, it's a highly complex algorithm that will project values to a high degree of accuracy. Without this, the manufacturers would have no way of knowing how to compute the PCP finance deals as without an accurate residual value to work to, it would be impossible to set the monthly repayment figures.
With a PCP deal where you finance the depreciation, it shows how much more you can get for your monthly payment if you chooses carefully
Cheers mate. Love the vid. Next time could you pls add numbers in text while matt id talking about it. A graph or numerics would help a lot to understand. Thank you 😊
Im tired of asking for a volvo xc90 2021 review but I aint gonna stop
Half of these cars haven’t even been out for 3 years though so how is it calculated?

HOW CAN THEY PREDICT VALUE AFTER 3 YEARS OF A TOTALLY NEW CAR????? - Talking about Cupra Formentor
Based on past performance of similar cars and the brands typical residuals after 3 years, If they did not do this there would be no lease or PCP contracts
It goes down by a certain percentage each year. Just multiply by 3
Probably somewhere is disclaimer: It is only for entertaining purposes.
previous models + how much value it has lost till now. Use your brain idiot.

Looks like my new defender turning up next week was a good call👍
When the Macan first came out i was expecting it to drop in value like most high end SUVs and was keen on buying one used. But the cheapest one i ever saw was $50,000 and it had like 90,000 miles. The CPO ones are still in the $60,000 - $70,000 range unlike the BMW X3 or Mercedes GLC where CPO ones can be picked up for $30,000. Its def something I'd buy in the future, my then co-worker bought one when it was first released and said it was very reliable.

Interesting to see so many suv models in the list!
Typically more popular models will flood the second hand market in greater numbers, so....Buy a good but not so popular car, or from a company that had manufacturing issues to keep up with initial demand with a niche market for best value retention I guess. Think VW Beetle or the first BMW owned Mini. For a while you could sell second hand for basically the same as new. Or if you keep and maintain them for over one hundred years......Maybe our alien overlords will like the Nissan Juke and its design will finally have made sense.
Thanks Matt ☺️
How accurate are these? Some of the cars aren't even 3 years old.

Model 3's are holding their value way better than suggested here. 1.5 year old models are only 5k off purchase price on autotrader. This is for long range models with the standard range falling more but will certainly better than 60% after 3 years. 80%+ for a long range can be expected and 70% for a standard range.
I own a 2014 Lexus lx570 bought it for about 80K pounds new and now selling it for about 30K pounds after 7 years of ownership!! Therefore it beats every car in this video 😂😂
So losing 50k is a good deal to you?

Appreciate this.... In SA its basically everything Toyota, then Volkswagen and the Ford, Mazda, Opel.... The more luxurious, Merc, BMW, Audi, depreciate by 30% plus the moment you drive them out of the showroom.....
Good video keep it up
how are multiple cars on this list that havent even been out for 3 years ?!
I was thinking the same thing. I mean how can they possibly know what the Defender will be worth in 2 years time when it was only released a year or so ago.
When you buy a car on finance, after 3 years you can pay the final payment or return the car - they give that final value price at the time of negotiation, so you can use that as an estimate
@@EaseAssassin You are making the same mistake as a lot of others in talking about PCP deals!! Not real world hard cash!
Cars that hold their value the best? All limited production cars, because they only rise in value.
That isn't true anymore. Many limited production cars loosr their value nowadays

Those resales are based on forecourt values or retail selling price, most people buying new cars and trading them in after 3 years are most likely going to trade them in for another new one in which case you won't get anywhere near the forecourt value. This if you bought the car for cash might be somewhat different if bought on PCP.
