Polaris Slingshot S keeps an estimated 72% of its value after 5 years — #347 of 1005 powersports vehicles VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Polaris Slingshot S retains an estimated 72% of its value after five years, ranking #347 of 1005 powersports vehicles we track. That is 6 points above the 65% five-year average for Standard in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Polaris Slingshot S sheds about 13% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $24,999 it falls to around $17,874 by year five — a five-year loss near $7,125, about $3.90 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Polaris Slingshot S bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
