Frequently Asked Questions
How is residual value calculated?
Residual value depends on the annual depreciation rate (15-22% depending on brand), adjusted for mileage compared to average (15,000 km/year) and vehicle condition.
Which brands have the best residual value?
Premium brands (Porsche, Mercedes, BMW) and some mainstream brands (Toyota, Honda) retain their value better. Budget brands depreciate faster.
What impact does mileage have on value?
Every 10,000 km above annual average causes about 5% additional value loss. Low mileage can conversely increase the vehicle's value.
Does vehicle condition significantly influence value?
Yes, a vehicle in excellent condition can be worth 10% more than one in good condition. Poor condition can lose up to 30% of value.
When is depreciation highest?
The first year is critical: a new vehicle loses 20-25% of its value. Depreciation then slows to about 10% per year after 5 years.
