Subaru Depreciation

Subaru ranks first (#1) in retained value after 3, 5 and 7 years of ownership. Subaru earns this high ranking with great performances from its BRZ, Impreza and Outback models. Subarus have consistently held their value better than virtually all other car lines over the years, and are a clear choice for those looking for long-term value. Pair that with their safety and reliability records, and you can't go wrong buying one of these new or used.

The 2022 is our top pick for the best model year value for the Subaru vehicles. With the 2022, you would only pay, on average, 100% of the price as new, with 100% of the vehicle's useful life remaining. The 2021 and 2020 model years are also attractive years for the Subaru models, and provide a relatively good value. Our rankings consider multiple factors, including original new prices, current prices, maintenance costs and remaining years of overall predictabe expenses. Our top ranked model year represents the most car for the money with a Subaru model.
