What the numbers say

A 2012 Fiat 500 still asks 90% of what a 2017 one does — that's how much value it holds after 5 years. Among 77 sedans we price, that ranks #12, above the 61% class median. The steepest single-year drop comes at year 2 (−23.1%), after which losses ease to about 5% a year. Mileage costs it 59%: the same car reads 100k–150k instead of Under 40k miles. Calculated from 170 listings.
