What the numbers say

A 2021 Buick Enclave still asks 54% of what a 2026 one does — that's how much value it holds after 5 years. Among 87 suvs we price, that ranks #28, above the 46% class median. The steepest single-year drop comes at year 5 (−29.7%), after which losses ease to about 19.1% a year. Mileage costs it 54%: the same car reads 100k–150k instead of Under 40k miles. Calculated from 355 listings.
