Audi SQ5 Depreciation & Resale Value

Audi SQ5 keeps an estimated 50% of its recent market value after 5 years — #377 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Audi SQ5 retains an estimated 50% of its recent market value after five years, ranking #377 of 530 cars we track. That trails the 54% five-year average for Luxury in its class by 4 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Audi SQ5 sheds about 14% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $62,895 it falls to around $31,321 by year five — a five-year loss near $31,574, about $17.30 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Audi SQ5 bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
