Acura TL keeps an estimated 49% of its recent market value after 5 years — #390 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Acura TL retains an estimated 49% of its recent market value after five years, ranking #390 of 530 cars we track. That trails the 54% five-year average for Luxury in its class by 5 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Acura TL sheds about 12% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $20,950 it falls to around $10,244 by year five — a five-year loss near $10,706, about $5.87 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Acura TL bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
