Chalet Alpine keeps an estimated 83% of its value after 5 years — #57 of 5948 RVs & trailers VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Chalet Alpine retains an estimated 83% of its value after five years, ranking #57 of 5948 RVs & trailers we track. That is 28 points above the 55% five-year average for Travel Trailer in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Chalet Alpine sheds about 3% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $22,599 it falls to around $18,757 by year five — a five-year loss near $3,842, about $2.11 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Chalet Alpine bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
