Depreciation Insight
Every high‑performance car trades off price for performance, and the Honda Civic Type‑R is no exception. If you’re planning a long‑term purchase or a future resale, knowing how the vehicle’s value erodes over time helps in budgeting and trade‑in decisions.
- First year: ownership of a new Type‑R typically results in a loss of 15–20% of its original value due to the high depreciation curve of performance models.
- Between years 2–3: a steady decline of around 10% per year, as the car moves into the pre‑owned market and comparably newer models appear.
- By year 5: overall depreciation reaches roughly 50–60% of the original sticker price.
Generally, the Honda Civic Type‑R depreciation curve mirrors that of other niche sports hatchbacks—valuable but with a sharper drop in the first few years. Choosing a well‑maintained or lower‑mileage used model often yields a better return on value for the same initial spend.

When you look beyond the Type‑R, you’ll find its rivals:

- Volkswagen Golf R – also a turbocharged hatchback with similar torque but slightly less horsepower. The Type‑R triumphs in a racing‑derived gearbox.
