Audi A4-Sedan keeps an estimated 55% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #425 of 684 cars VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Audi A4-Sedan retains an estimated 55% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #425 of 684 cars we track. That is roughly in line with the 55% five-year average for Luxury in its class.
Most of the loss lands early: the Audi A4-Sedan sheds about 14% of its original MSRP in year one alone. From roughly $41,900 it falls to around $22,961 by year five — a five-year loss near $18,939, about $10.38 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Audi A4-Sedan bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
