Indian Challenger Black keeps an estimated 75% of its value after 5 years — #167 of 1052 powersports vehicles VINdown tracks.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Indian Challenger Black retains an estimated 75% of its value after five years, ranking #167 of 1052 powersports vehicles we track. That is 2 points above the 73% five-year average for Cruiser in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Indian Challenger Black sheds about 12% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $26,499 it falls to around $19,874 by year five — a five-year loss near $6,625, about $3.63 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Indian Challenger Black bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
