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.

Buying a Volvo XC40 New vs Used

If you purchase a used Volvo XC40 that is 2 years old, then you could save $17,486 compared to buying new, and still have a relatively new model with plenty of useful life remaining. If you plan to keep this vehicle for 3 years then your total cost of depreciation would be $4,498. 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 XC40 models become available.

What About Volvo XC40 Insurance Costs?

The average cost to insure a Volvo XC40 is about $2,482 per year. This adds up to around $12,410 after 5 years of vehicle ownership. Unlike depreciation, this expense can often be lowered by shopping around for lower insurance premiums. Comparing quotes will ensure that you are not overpaying if you already own a Volvo XC40. Or, if you are just researching, then it would be money-wise to know this cost before buying. Try our Competitive Quote Tool or the form below to get free quotes. Advertising Disclosure
