Kia Sorento Resale Value and Depreciation

See how much the Kia Sorento depreciates and retains its value over a 3-, 5-, 7- and 10-year timeframe.

Depreciation is the single largest factor in the cost of owning a vehicle. That means knowing how much a vehicle depreciates over time and how well it will hold its value is important. iSeeCars analyzed over 15 million vehicles to determine how much each model depreciates over a 3-, 5-, 7- and 10-year period. Typically, five years is the timeframe used to evaluate and compare depreciation across vehicles.

A new Kia Sorento depreciates 49.9 percent after five years, resulting in a resale value of $16,027. In comparison, the midsize SUV category, which the Kia Sorento belongs to, loses 48.5 percent of its value after five years. For further context, the five-year depreciation for all SUVs is 47 percent and for all vehicles is 43.7 percent.

If you plan to drive a new Kia Sorento for shorter or longer than five years, check the depreciation data for the other time periods. After three years, an Kia Sorento sees a depreciation of 33.6 percent with a resale value of $21,256. Its 7-year depreciation is 60 percent and 10-year depreciation is 68.7 percent.

Methodology

iSeeCars analyzed over 15 million vehicles to calculate the depreciation and resale value for each model after 3, 5, 7, and 10 years. The depreciation for a given model is calculated from the difference between the new car price and the used car price for the model at each age. Factors such as the car's automaker and vehicle segment are taken into account in iSeeCars' mathematical model to estimate resale value and depreciation. Various segment averages are also calculated for context.
