Per VINdown's modeling, the Volvo XC40 retains an estimated 56% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #405 of 684 cars we track. That is roughly in line with the 55% five-year average for Luxury in its class.

Most of the loss lands early: the Volvo XC40 sheds about 12% of its original MSRP in year one alone. From roughly $39,900 it falls to around $22,184 by year five — a five-year loss near $17,716, about $9.71 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Volvo XC40 bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
