Volkswagen Jetta Gli keeps an estimated 64% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #240 of 684 cars VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Volkswagen Jetta Gli retains an estimated 64% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #240 of 684 cars we track. That is roughly in line with the 63% five-year average for Sedan in its class.
Most of the loss lands early: the Volkswagen Jetta Gli sheds about 10% of its original MSRP in year one alone. From roughly $33,745 it falls to around $21,630 by year five — a five-year loss near $12,115, about $6.64 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 1, a lightly-used Volkswagen Jetta Gli bought at 1 year old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
