Volkswagen CC Depreciation & Resale Value

Volkswagen CC keeps an estimated 38% of its recent market value after 5 years — #485 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full depreciation curve.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Volkswagen CC retains an estimated 38% of its recent market value after five years, ranking #485 of 530 cars we track. That trails the 60% five-year average for Sedan in its class by 22 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Volkswagen CC sheds about 29% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $21,450 it falls to around $8,236 by year five — a five-year loss near $13,214, about $7.24 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Volkswagen CC bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
