Volvo XC90 Depreciation & Resale Value

Volvo XC90 keeps an estimated 46% of its original MSRP after 5 years — #433 of 530 cars VINdown tracks. See the full curve and the best year to buy.

Per VINdown's modeling, the Volvo XC90 retains an estimated 46% of its original MSRP after five years, ranking #433 of 530 cars we track. That trails the 54% five-year average for Luxury in its class by 8 points, so it depreciates faster than most rivals.

Most of the loss lands early: the Volvo XC90 sheds about 12% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $61,050 it falls to around $27,899 by year five — a five-year loss near $33,151, about $18.16 a day in depreciation.

Because the steepest drop hits around year 2, a lightly-used Volvo XC90 bought at 2 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
