Understanding Chevrolet Matiz Depreciation
When buying or selling a used car, depreciation is a headline factor. The Chevrolet Matiz depreciation curves are predictable, largely because the model has never been too high‑profile—the mechanics keep it steady.
- First year: Typically loses 15‑20% of its original value.
- Year one to three: Adds another 10‑15% drop, bringing total depreciation to around 25‑35%.
Note: This range covers normal wear, seasonal passes, and tax adjustments. - Three to five years: Depreciation accelerates, with 45‑50% loss overall by the end of year five.
- Beyond five years: Value decline slows, with incremental 10% reductions every two years, depending on mileage and upkeep.
To provide context, here is an easy visual snapshot:
- 1 yr 15‑20% - 2 yr 25‑30% - 3 yr 35‑40% - 4 yr 40‑45% - 5 yr 45‑50%
This pattern means a 2006 Chevrolet Matiz can command roughly 50–60% of its launch price in a healthy market after five to six years—making it an attractive option for budget buyers.
What is a 2006 Chevrolet Matiz Worth?
Prospective sellers often ask: “what is a 2006 Chevrolet Matiz worth?” While exact values differ widely across regions and specific vehicle condition, you can gauge a ballpark by reading recent market trends. The used Chevrolet Matiz price is largely governed by factors such as mileage, maintenance history, and any mechanical upgrades.
A general guideline for a mechanically sound, 2006 unit with 120,000 km (75,000 mi) is between 25–35% of the MSRP. In emerging markets where the Matiz was the go‑to apartment car, prices may lean toward the lower end. Conversely, in markets where the model is rare, you can see the price slightly higher.
