Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class keeps an estimated 46% of its recent market value after 5 years — #431 of 530 cars VINdown tracks.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class retains an estimated 46% of its recent market value after five years, ranking #431 of 530 cars we track. That trails the 54% five-year average for Luxury in its class by 8 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class sheds about 32% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $45,524 it falls to around $20,849 by year five — a five-year loss near $24,675, about $13.52 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Mercedes-Benz CLA-Class bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
