Toyota Tacoma Depreciation & Resale Value

Toyota Tacoma keeps an estimated 76% of its recent market value after 5 years — #34 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Toyota Tacoma retains an estimated 76% of its recent market value after five years, ranking #34 of 530 cars we track. That is 13 points above the 63% five-year average for Truck in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Toyota Tacoma sheds about 11% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $32,995 it falls to around $25,076 by year five — a five-year loss near $7,919, about $4.34 a day in depreciation.

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