Volkswagen Beetle
The Volkswagen Beetle’s depreciation rate is at 37 percent in its first year and, in addition to that, the diesel models’ resale value and MSRP have dropped far quicker than those of the gasoline models. All of this was owing to reports about Volkswagen adding a software cheat to their diesel models in order to perform well in emission tests. From September 18th, 2015, the Beetle has become a car model that has double the rate of depreciation compared to its gasoline models. However, when it comes to the Beetle, last year’s purchase could be the best buy of the following year.
Lincoln MKS
The Lincoln MKS is facing obsolescence. This model may not be sold that often but it appeals to buyers seeking a luxury car for under $50k. This car was not really a top-seller, so there is a 30.4 percent drop in its value in just a year. The individual purchasing a brand new Lincoln MKS may find this really annoying, but a used car buyer will think it is a best-case scenario.
