Buying a Honda Accord New vs Used
Considering buying a new Honda Accord? If you plan to keep this vehicle for 5 years then your total cost of depreciation would be $8,697. Try other age and ownership length combinations, or different vehicles to see if you can find depreciation sweetspots where this cost is the lowest. Hint: Try vehicles between 2 and 4 years old, as brand new vehicles depreciate quickly. Also, if this is a recently released model and buying a few years old isn't possible, consider another vehicle, or perhaps wait until more used Accord models become available.
