Nissan Ariya Depreciation & Resale Value

Nissan Ariya keeps an estimated 22% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #671 of 684 cars VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Nissan Ariya retains an estimated 22% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #671 of 684 cars we track. That trails the 37% five-year average for EV in its class by 15 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Nissan Ariya sheds about 26% of its original MSRP in year one alone. From roughly $39,770 it falls to around $8,828 by year five — a five-year loss near $30,942, about $16.95 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.
