Honda Civic keeps an estimated 79% of its recent market value after 5 years — #17 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Honda Civic retains an estimated 79% of its recent market value after five years, ranking #17 of 530 cars we track. That is 19 points above the 60% five-year average for Sedan in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Honda Civic sheds about 6% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $25,100 it falls to around $19,879 by year five — a five-year loss near $5,221, about $2.86 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Honda Civic bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.

It keeps an estimated 79% of its recent market value after five years — better than most among the 530 cars VINdown tracks (ranked #17).
From about $25,100 when new it drops to roughly $19,879 after five years — a loss near $5,221 (79% of its recent market value retained).
Around 2 years old: that is just past the steepest depreciation, so you skip the biggest drop while the value curve is flattening.
