Value lost by model

Each model's highest-volume variant, measured from its own year 1. A blank cell means no measured value for that year — either no listings that old, or the flat opening segment explained below.

How to read these curves

Four things worth knowing before you quote a number from this page.

Year 1 is the newest car listed, not a showroom price

2026 for a trim still in production, 2020 for a Corolla GLi, 2019 for a Mehran. There is no MSRP in this data, so percentages answer “how much does this trim lose over its first N years on the road”, not “how much has it lost since new”. Hover any point for the model year behind it.

A faded, flat opening means no signal

Where a line starts pale and level, the curve is sitting on a clamp rather than measuring anything — either no priced listings behind those model years, or a noisy young segment that got flattened. Read those years as “unknown”, never as “this car holds its value”.

It's a snapshot, not one car's history

Every listing was collected inside one scraping window, so a curve compares a 2026 car against a 2016 car priced today — it does not follow any car through time. With PKR inflation, a car you keep loses less in rupees than this gradient suggests.

The fit, in one line

log(price) ~ b0 + b1·age + b2·age² per model and variant, depreciation forced to increase with age, tails clamped to each variant's observed range. Levels fit well; year-to-year steps are noisier. Switch on Observed medians to see the real ads behind each line — every dot is a median of 15+ listings.

Frequently Asked Questions

Depreciation questions, answered from this dataset.

How much value does a KIA Sportage lose?
On the fitted curve for the AWD — the highest-volume Sportage variant, with 2,763 listings behind it — a KIA Sportage loses about 6.0% by year 3 and 16.5% by year 5. Year 1 is the 2026 model year, the newest AWD on the market.
Which KIA Sportage variant holds its value best?
Of the Sportage variants whose curves reach depreciation year 5, AWD holds value best, losing 16.5% by year 5, while Alpha loses the most at 30.5%. Trims are measured from their own year 1, so a discontinued variant isn't penalised for being older.
Does the KIA Sportage depreciate faster or slower than average?
At 16.5% lost by depreciation year 5, the KIA Sportage depreciates slower than the market here — the median model on this page loses 20.7% over the same span, so the KIA Sportage holds value better than average. As a buyer that means a smaller discount for age; as an owner it means more of your money comes back on resale.
Which model year is year 1 for the KIA Sportage?
It depends on the trim. Across the charted Sportage variants, year 1 falls between 2025 and 2026. Each variant is indexed to its own newest model year on the market, so a discontinued trim starts at the last year it was sold rather than being penalised for no longer being built. Hover a point to see the model year behind it.
How many KIA Sportage variants are covered?
3 Sportage variants have enough priced listings to fit a curve: AWD, FWD, Alpha. The chart draws the 3 highest-volume of them; the rest are named under the chart title.
How is depreciation year 1 defined?
Year 1 is each variant's newest model year available on the market — 2026 for a trim still in production, 2020 for a Corolla GLi, 2019 for a Mehran. There is no showroom price in this data, so percentages answer "how much does this trim lose over its first N years on the road", not "how much has it lost since new". Indexing this way lets a discontinued trim and a current one be compared over the same ownership span.
How were these depreciation curves calculated?
Each of the 86 model-variant curves is a regression of log price on car age and age squared, fitted on 118,843 de-duplicated market listings, with depreciation forced to increase with age and the ends of each curve clamped to the age range actually observed for that variant. Switch on Observed medians to see the raw listing medians behind each line.
Does this show what my own car will lose over the next five years?
Not directly. Every listing was collected inside one scraping window, so a curve compares a 2026 car against a 2016 car priced today — a cross-section, not one car followed through time. With PKR inflation, a car you keep loses less in rupees than the gradient suggests. For your specific car, run it through the fair price assessor, which adjusts for its condition, mileage, and city.
Does depreciation differ by city in Pakistan?
These curves are national — one fit per model and variant across the whole dataset, not per city. City does move price levels (registration, local demand, dealer density), which the fair price assessor accounts for as a separate input. Treat the curve as the shape of the decline and the assessor as the number for your city.
Does mileage change these numbers?
The curves are fitted on age, not odometer, so they describe an average-mileage car of each age. A high-mileage car sits below its curve and a low-mileage one above it. TruPrice's assessor handles that separately: it predicts the expected mileage for a car of that age and model, then adjusts the fair price by how far the actual reading deviates.
