Why Cars Lose Their Value So Fast
Переглядів 1,266,612
День томуA car loses about 10% of its value as soon as it's driven off the lot. And within the first three years, that number goes up to 50%. Depreciation - the rate at which that happens - is one of those numbers everyone in the automotive world thinks about including consumers, automakers and the massive used car market, which made up somewhere around 35.2 million in 2022 - compared with 13.8 million new cars. But the Covid-19 pandemic turned the used car market upside down - constrained production and supply chain shortages sent prices skyrocketing, and increased for about two consecutive years, unprecedented for the industry. Those odd times have led to lasting changes, and industry insiders say it is likely to stay that way.

Why Cars Lose Their Value So Fast
@GrantDWilliams82 4 місяці тому
The question isn't "Why do cars lose their value so quickly?". It's "Why are they so overvalued when they're on the lot?".

I’m not in the car business but I assume the dealer has a little bit of overhead. Property lease, utilities, labor costs. I highly doubt any of the folks working at the dealership are working for free. But I may be wrong.

We can avoid some of this by allowing manufacturers to sell directly to consumers. The middleman markup at dealerships is an unnecessary cost to consumers and they provide no real added value that the manufacturer couldn't do equally well for less. Start selling vehicles closer to the wholesale price and that first year depreciation will slow.

Used cars didn't increase value. The dollar shrank in value as the government went on a multi-trillion dollar spending spree. It made it appear like housing, the stock market, food, fuel, and basically everything were going up when in fact it was just the value of the dollar shrinking. It's also why the government insists the economy is great when nobody feels that way. 1/3 of the value of money has vanished since before the pandemic, so we are all earning 1/3 less in actual value.

Try this in your current car to decontent it and see how long you can do it: Use only AM / FM on the radio and no navigation. If you have power windows, reach across the car to operate the non drivers window. When leaving he car, lock each door individually and use a key on the last door. Don't use cruise control.

You know what’s a better question? Is why companies are legally allowed to rip people off who want to repair their cars and appliances rather than just replace them? The drain pump in my washer failed. It’s $100 to replace it and the washer was $600 brand new. Four cheap plastic suspension rods broke as well and guess how much those were to replace? 67.20 per cheap plastic rod. So for those keeping up that’s $368 to fix an old washer or $600 to buy a new one. That’s our disposable society that we live in it is disgusting.

Values have dropped dramatically the past 6 months and as a dealer we are not able to help as many customers due to being upside down. Add that with high interest rates is the reason dealership inventory will continue to grow. The whole time during the pandemic my store didn’t sell vehicles over MSRP and take advantage of customers. Every dealer now will offer some type of incentive so now is the time to buy. Once rates drop customers will start to lower dealership inventory which will cause dealerships to tighten up on discounts due to limited supply. I can’t believe how many people paid $5-10k over MSRP’s on these KIA’s & Hyundai’s….really unbelievable

In Sri Lanka cars don't depreciate because of the government tax and the peoples mindset. for a normal 1500cc car we pay 300% tax and for anything above that we have to pay 400% tax. Nobody sells cars for lower price than they bought no matter how old the car get. A 15 year old car that cost 2000 USD in other countries cost about 15000 USD in Sri Lanka.

Vehicles also depreciate less when the future price of the same newer vehicle is priced higher. For example: Jeep Wrangler priced at 40k in 2022 and in 2023 is priced at 44k. In 2023 the 2022 Wrangler will be compared to the price of the new (not the price it was bought for). Therefore the higher the price of the new vehicle versus the price paid for the used vehicle back in the day, the less depreciation. I used Jeep Wrangler because this is one of the main reasons why Wranglers hold value so well.

BTW, my 2000 Tacoma and 2007 GX is still running strong (I did the whole overhaul on the engine with my uncle...the only reason why my element kinda fail apart and me ended selling it is because I rarely even maintained it.

Vehicle prices are seeing a correction considering that inventories are back up and in some model there is too much. One thing that could inform the discussion is the difference between wholesale price and the transaction price paid at the dealership. If you were to sell a car back to the dealership, the most you would possibly get, would be the wholesale price of a new car (minus a percentage). And all markdowns are based on that starting price.

Most people aren't capable of fixing cars, that includes myself, it's unlikely we would drive it through the end. I bought a brand new Honda in 2021, it was experiencing issues in 2021 then 2022, so i traded in for like $3K and got another new car. The issue is a repair here and there will outpace that $3K easily given how much car repair cost. So at end of the road, everyone has to trade their car in for a newer one (doesn't have to be a new car).

the "value" in the car is the want from you as the consumer and the holder of the asset which is the dealer. Once that euphoric feeling deteriorates, so does the car's "value". The value subsequently detiorioratges mainly due to the same car that is released every year with newer technology so the "want" phase is restarted all over again

Current car I own it 12+ years. Paid $4,700 for it. Might put in $1,400 in repairs not counting normal maintenance. Still running strong with 211,000 miles on it. This is a 2006 Ford Freestyle. Yes, I have funds saved up for my next purchase when I need to. So far I have $8,000 saved up. Not sure when I need it. But it's there when I do need it.

I think the whole industry regarding cars is backwards. So they manufacture a vehicle only to sell it to a dealership and then one has to haggle a good price on it, only for it to depreciate. I could understand why it would depreciate and that is because of natural wear and tear, not to mention it being exposed to the elements and being an asset that is exposed to a high chance of being dented or crashed.

The first value you loose is the profit the dealership makes. Then if you finance the car you loose the interest you pay to the finance company. Then the car depreciates as new ones come out. In the uk new cars come out twice a year with new plates. So twice a year at least your cars value is depreciated. On top of that you have miles and condition of the car.
@greasyheart8648 4 місяці тому

@jon6309 4 місяці тому
I think the concept of depreciation on any item is a good way to gauge if buying brand new is worth it or not in some cases I find buying new can be cheaper if the the retailer has a clearance sale but in a lot of cases you can save a lot of money buying gently used. For the first time I bought a refurbished iPhone from a certified and excellent grade. I bought the IPhone 14 Pro Max for under $900 before taxes. Last year it was being sold for $1,100 plus tax. I saved around $250 buying it used. Also for professional attire, vintage shops might be a good alternative. I live in Hawaii where we use very nice aloha shirts for professional attire but they can cost up to $100+ each. I’ve seen some vintage stores sell the same brand of aloha shirts gently used for around $30 so it’s a good saving.

You missed the biggest reason why a new car loses so much value when you drive it off the lot. First most people tend to finance newer cars. To get someone to purchase a used car (even a one month old one for example), you have to make the payment difference between a new and used car big enough that a buyer would be willing to buy used (again even if slightly used). If financing it requires a pretty large difference to make much of a difference in the payments of used vs new.
