Understanding Hyundai Elantra depreciation is essential when you’re weighing the cost of a new or used vehicle. The 2018 Elantra initially loses roughly 15–20% of its value in the first year—one of the steepest drops for cars in its class. Over the next few years, the depreciation rate tends to flatten, with an estimated 40–45% total loss by the fifth year. These figures suggest a mid‑to‑high‑depreciation vehicle that can still shop as a solid value pickup when buying used. The depreciation curve also highlights why the used Hyundai Elantra price can be attractive, especially with low mileage and good maintenance history.

When you’re probing “what is a 2018 Hyundai Elantra worth,” it helps to compare its pricing to similar models. If you look at the 2018 Mazda3, Honda Civic, or Toyota Corolla, each tends to hold onto a resale value of around 45–50% after five years. The Elantra’s depreciation curve aligns closely with these competitors, though its lower entry price often means a more affordable trade‑in or purchase when you’re shopping for a used sedan in the same segment. In short, the used Hyundai Elantra price is competitive with gasoline‑efficient compact cars that offer strong features at a lower cost base.
