Most of the vehicles within the car segment maintained similar levels of depreciation, the main exception were prestige luxury cars which saw the heaviest depreciation of 0.42% for the week.
Most truck segment vehicles also saw similar levels of depreciation. Subcompact crossovers saw the heaviest depreciation among trucks at 0.70% while full-size crossovers/SUVs, compact vans, and full-size pickups had strong showings. These segments saw better wholesale values last week than they did the week before — full-size crossover/SUV values were up 0.25%, compact van values were up 0.19%, and full-size pickup values were up 0.08%.
