Yamaha Viking keeps an estimated 86% of its value after 5 years — #15 of 1189 powersports vehicles VINdown tracks. See its full depreciation curve, cost per day, and best model year to buy.
Per VINdown's modeling, the Yamaha Viking retains an estimated 86% of its value after five years, ranking #15 of 1189 powersports vehicles we track. That is 19 points above the 67% five-year average for UTV in its class, so it holds value better than most rivals.
Most of the loss lands early: the Yamaha Viking sheds about 3% of its value in year one alone. From roughly $11,999 it falls to around $10,331 by year five — a five-year loss near $1,668, about $0.91 a day in depreciation.
Because the steepest drop hits around year 3, a lightly-used Yamaha Viking bought at 3 years old lets the first owner absorb the worst of the depreciation while the curve flattens — usually the value sweet spot.
