Hyundai depreciation by model

The Hyundai Elantra is a compact sedan known for its bold styling, long warranty, and strong value proposition. While it offers excellent features for the money, the Elantra depreciates faster than Japanese rivals like the Civic or Corolla, retaining roughly 48-52% of its value after five years.

The Hyundai Ioniq 5 is an award-winning electric crossover built on the E-GMP platform with 800V fast charging and retro-futuristic styling. Like most EVs, it depreciates faster than comparable gas crossovers, but strong reviews, federal incentives on used examples, and the new N performance variant help stabilize retained value better than most non-Tesla EVs.

The Hyundai Santa Fe is a two-row (now three-row for 2024+) midsize SUV that competes with the Honda Passport and Toyota Highlander. Depreciation is middle-of-the-pack for the segment — stronger than older Santa Fes thanks to the bold 2024 redesign and available hybrid, but resale still trails Toyota rivals by a few points at the 5-year mark.

The Hyundai Tucson is a compact crossover SUV known for its bold parametric styling, generous feature set, and available hybrid and plug-in hybrid powertrains. Depreciation runs slightly faster than segment leaders like the RAV4 and CR-V, though the Tucson's long warranty and strong value proposition help keep 5-year retained value competitive in the mainstream compact SUV class.
