What the numbers say

A 2014 Cadillac XTS still asks 75% of what a 2019 one does — that's how much value it holds after 5 years. Among 91 sedans we price, that ranks #8, above the 52% class median. The steepest single-year drop comes at year 2 (−42.5%), after which losses ease to about 11.1% a year. Mileage costs it 50%: the same car reads 100k–150k instead of Under 40k miles. Calculated from 113 listings.
