Cars with the Best Resale Value

Posted: Wednesday, April 26th, 2017

Drivers in St. Louis know how to take care of their cars. Between regular maintenance and routine safety inspections, you can make sure that your vehicle stays in excellent condition, but some cars keep their value better than others. According to Kelley Blue Book, one of the most trusted experts in the automotive industry, the following vehicles do an excellent job at retaining their value. When you’re ready to finance one of these vehicles (or any other car or truck you might be interested in), get in touch with Green Light Auto Credit to discuss their financing services.

Which Vehicle’s Value Holds Up Best?

Overall, the vehicles that have the best resale value are SUVs and trucks. But let’s look at a variety of categories to see which models boast the highest resale value.

  • 2017 Subaru Legacy: In the mid-size category, the Legacy comes out ahead. Key features include standard all-wheel drive and excellent fuel efficiency, and those both go a long way toward preserving the vehicle’s value.
  • 2017 Toyota 4Runner: This mid-size SUV has one of the best value retention rates of all vehicles. At 36 months, its resale value averages 64.3% of the original, and at 60 months, that figure only drops to 54.5%. It’s a rugged, powerful vehicle that customers know they can depend on.
  • 2017 Chevy Silverado: The full-size pickup category is notoriously competitive. However, according to Kelley Blue Book, the Silverado has a better resale value than the Ford F-150 and the Ram 1500.
