Per VINdown's modeling, the Hyundai Veloster retains an estimated 61% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #207 of 530 cars we track. That trails the 63% five-year average for Sports in its class by 2 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

The loss does not land all at once here: the Hyundai Veloster sheds about 8% in year one and keeps going at much the same rate. From roughly $19,900 it falls to around $12,079 by year five — a five-year loss near $7,821, about $4.29 a day in depreciation.

There is no single sweet spot on the Hyundai Veloster: it gives up a similar share of its value every year rather than falling off a cliff, so how long you keep it matters more than what age you buy it at.
