Chrysler Neon Depreciation Insight

When evaluating a used Chrysler Neon price, the depreciation curve is a critical factor. The Neon’s depreciation tends to follow a pattern similar to other compact cars from the late 1990s and early 2000s.

• Within the first year, a new Neon typically loses 15-20% of its original value. For example, a 2001 model that started around $8,000 to $9,000 in 2001 would now hover in the $1,200 to $1,800 range in a current used market scenario.
• After the second year, the depreciation usually accelerates, and the vehicle can lose an additional 10-12% of value annually over the next three to five years.
