Volkswagen Beetle

The Volkswagen Beetle is perhaps the flagship of VW’s “cars for the people”. However, its rate of depreciation is ghastly. A 37% drop within the first 12 months of purchase is enough to discourage any potential buyer. Due to a scandalous report released regarding the software cheat that VW developed to fly through emission tests, VW has taken harsh criticism. VW Beetles have dropped immensely since September 18th, 2015 – a depreciation rate of almost double!

Lincoln MKS

Soon to become an obsolete model, the Lincoln MKS is a great option for buyers looking to get a luxury car for under $50k. Because this model wasn’t a top seller at any point, its value drops 30.4% in just its first year. Like the Genesis, this car isn’t a great deal to buy new, but for a used car buyer, it’s the best-case scenario.
