Acura RDX Depreciation & Resale Value

Acura RDX keeps an estimated 59% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #236 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Acura RDX retains an estimated 59% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #236 of 530 cars we track. That is 5 points above the 54% five-year average for Luxury in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Acura RDX sheds about 10% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $45,100 it falls to around $26,518 by year five — a five-year loss near $18,582, about $10.18 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Acura RDX bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
