Depreciation insights

When evaluating the Lexus LS 430 depreciation curve, buyers consistently see a gradual decline in resale value, particularly during the first few years on the road:

  • Typically, a new LS 430 loses 15‑20 % of its original value within the first year.
  • From years 2 to 5, the vehicle typically drops another 5‑7 % per year, as newer models and badge‑engineered competitors introduce more aggressive pricing.
  • Beyond year 10, the annual depreciation stabilizes around 2‑3 %, reflecting the car’s enduring premium reputation.

This pattern helps explain why the used Lexus LS 430 price can remain relatively high compared to other luxury sedans of similar age—owners value the comfort, reliability, and resale promise that only a Lexus can deliver.
