Lincoln MKS keeps an estimated 46% of its recent market value after 5 years — #426 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Lincoln MKS retains an estimated 46% of its recent market value after five years, ranking #426 of 530 cars we track. That trails the 54% five-year average for Luxury in its class by 7 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Lincoln MKS sheds about 11% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $26,000 it falls to around $12,012 by year five — a five-year loss near $13,988, about $7.66 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 4, a lightly-used Lincoln MKS bought at 4 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
