Polaris Sportsman 850 Premium ATV Depreciation

Polaris Sportsman 850 Premium keeps an estimated 68% of its value after 5 years — #458 of 1052 powersports vehicles VINdown tracks.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Polaris Sportsman 850 Premium retains an estimated 68% of its value after five years, ranking #458 of 1052 powersports vehicles we track. That trails the 70% five-year average for ATV in its class by 2 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Polaris Sportsman 850 Premium sheds about 4% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $12,499 it falls to around $8,486 by year five — a five-year loss near $4,013, about $2.20 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Polaris Sportsman 850 Premium bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
