These are the cars that lose the least value and hold the price the best!

Maybe you also often come across the word "depreciation"? Unfortunately, it is an inevitable "thing" when buying a brand new car. We are talking about a drop in value, which only varies from car to car.

Depreciation affects everyone who buys a new car "from the showroom" and it is actually a drop in value, or devaluation. It is known that some cars retain their value better, while others, unfortunately, worse. With the help of our British colleagues, we got hold of some data that will make it easier for you to face depreciation. We have compiled a list of 10 cars that retain their value the best after three years and around 50,000 kilometers driven.

The basic version can travel up to 384 kilometers and accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in 5.6 seconds.
