Buick Depreciation

Buy a new Buick, only if you want to say, "our family has always owned Buicks". Don't buy a new one if you don't want to lose a lot of value through depreciation, as they depreciate hard and fast. Both the Enclave and Encore fall towards the end of the list in value retention, and like Chrysler cars, are better suited for a rental fleet--and many of them are, which contributes to their supply at the auctions and their weak resale values.

2023 is our top pick for the best model year value for Buick vehicles. With the 2023, you would only pay, on average, 61% of the price as new, with 83% of the vehicle's useful life remaining. The 2022 and 2021 model years are also attractive years for the Buick models, and provide a relatively good value. Our rankings consider multiple factors, including original new prices, current prices, maintenance costs and remaining years of overall predictabe expenses. Our top ranked model year represents the most car for the money with a Buick model.

CarEdge Depreciation Calculator

You entered the vehicle's current age and how long you plan to own it. To understand your projected depreciation:
  • Start with the row matching the vehicle's current age
  • Find the row for the vehicle's age after your ownership period
  • The difference between those two resale values is your estimated depreciation
Example: If your vehicle is 2 years old and you plan to own it for 3 years, look at the values for 2 and 5 years old.
