Nissan Ariya keeps an estimated 30% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #516 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Nissan Ariya retains an estimated 30% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #516 of 530 cars we track. That trails the 40% five-year average for EV in its class by 9 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Nissan Ariya sheds about 26% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $39,770 it falls to around $12,090 by year five — a five-year loss near $27,680, about $15.17 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Nissan Ariya bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
