Depreciation Overview

Understanding Kia Proceed depreciation is essential before making an investment. A 2008 sedan generally follows industry patterns of value decline. Rough estimates are:

• First year: typically loses 15‑20% of its purchase value
• Year 2‑3: another 10‑12% drop, bringing the vehicle to roughly 70% of its original value
• Year 4‑5: depreciation slows to about 5‑8% per year

These percentages assume average mileage (around 10,000 km per year), normal wear, and no major mechanical issues. Used Kia Proceed price in the used‑car market will therefore be a function of these losses compounded by local demand.
