Lexus ES-350 Depreciation & Resale Value

Lexus ES-350 keeps an estimated 50% of its recent market value after 5 years — #369 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Lexus ES-350 retains an estimated 50% of its recent market value after five years, ranking #369 of 530 cars we track. That trails the 54% five-year average for Luxury in its class by 3 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Lexus ES-350 sheds about 8% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $32,800 it falls to around $16,498 by year five — a five-year loss near $16,302, about $8.93 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Lexus ES-350 bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
