If you’re looking to lose money at a significant rate, invest in a car.
Yup! We said it.
A not-so-fun fact is that a new car loses an average of 10 to 11 percent of its value once the driver leaves the dealership.
Its value drops year after year. Even though all cars lose value at different rates, you realize that the car you bought at a high price, is now valued for way less than you anticipated when it’s time to sell the car.
This value loss affects new cars even more!
Reports show that depreciation accounts for almost 40% of the cost of owning a new vehicle, which is more than N1,000,000 per year. By the time it’s a year old, the vehicle has lost nearly one-third of its value.
Don’t freak out, breathe, the cavalry is here!
The winning shot for this fight against car depreciation is buying smart.
You should consider buying a quality pre-owned vehicle.
If you buy a verified car that’s one or two years old, it’ll still depreciate, but the good thing is your losses will be minimal and you will avoid the initial hits the previous owner took which are:
- Escaping the initial price.
- The new car registration fees such as customs duties and papers.
- Affording a car with upgraded features and more.
