Porsche Macan and Toyota Yaris Cross top UK family car value retention list
New analysis from Carmoola's Car Depreciation Index, developed in partnership with vehicle data specialists Brego, reveals the family cars that hold their value best — and those that lose it fastest. The findings come following a pivotal point in the UK car market. July is traditionally the busiest month for family car sales, according to Carmoola's internal sales data, as buyers prepare for the summer travel season. Switch Auto Insurance and Save Today! Affordable Auto Insurance, Customized for You The Insurance Savings You Expect Great Rates and Award-Winning Service Drawing on Brego sales data from more than 40 million UK transactions in 2025, Carmoola examined price trends for family cars — defined as hatchbacks, compact SUVs, MPVs, saloons and estates — over a three-year or 36,000-mile period. The Porsche Macan emerged as the slowest-depreciating model, losing just 19.9% of its original value, followed closely by the Toyota Yaris Cross at 20.2%. These figures stand in stark contrast to the market average for family cars, which saw values fall by 43.4% over the same period. At the other end of the scale, the Jaguar I-PACE lost 66.8% of its value, while the Audi E-Tron dropped by 65.6%. Based on average depreciation rates, sales volumes and Jaguar UK's official new car pricing, Carmoola estimates that I-PACE owners collectively saw £432 million wiped from their vehicles' value over three years. When broken down by body type, MPVs proved the most resilient, depreciating by just 28.8% on average, while saloons were the weakest performers, losing nearly 36% of their value. Aidan Rushby, founder and CEO of Carmoola, said depreciation remains 'the largest hidden cost of ownership,' and that choosing a car that retains its value can 'save families thousands when it is time to upgrade or sell.' He added that the rate at which a car loses value depends on 'everything from the brand's reputation and model popularity to running costs, fuel type and how well it fits with evolving consumer needs.' Even colour plays a part: while neutral tones such as black, grey and silver 'often have broad appeal,' more vibrant shades like yellow or orange 'can perform surprisingly well' because 'buyers who want a yellow car are specifically looking for one and are less likely to be swayed by price alone.' Rushby said the Car Depreciation Index is designed to 'highlight these trends and help people make more informed decisions' when buying new or nearly new vehicles.

Family motors that lose least value over time revealed with stylish SUV still worth £1,000s after multiple years
THE FAMILY motors that lose the least value over time have been revealed - with a luxury compact SUV taking the top spot. New data from the analysis of 40 million UK car sales over a typical three-year ownership period highlights which family models hold their value best. 5 5 5 Experts from Carmoola have recently released their new Car Depreciation Index, developed with vehicle data specialists Brego, which ranks the top-performing family cars for resale value. They found that the Porsche Macan is the slowest-depreciating family car sold in the UK - losing just 19.9% of its value over three years. The Macan is particularly popular in the UK due to its blend of sporty performance, SUV practicality and the prestige of the Porsche badge. It's championed for being agile and powerful, with a well-tuned suspension that makes it enjoyable to drive on various UK roads, from city streets to country lanes. What's more, it offers a comfortable and refined experience, even at higher speeds. Close behind is the Toyota Yaris Cross, another small SUV, which boasts a similarly impressive depreciation rate of 20.2%. Other well-known nameplates such as the Land Rover Discovery and Toyota RAV4 also ranked highly. In stark contrast, fully electric models like the Jaguar I-PACE and Audi E-Tron were found to lose over 65% of their value - making them among the fastest-depreciating family cars. The I-PACE, which was recently discontinued by Jaguar along with their entire line-up of cars, is a simply gorgeous-looking SUV that looks like good value when bought used. However, the model has been the subject of a number of recalls in recent years and it has since gained a reputation for reliability issues. EV6 Kia EV6 GT is a ridiculously fast SUV that even boils your kettle - but can it beat £158k Porsche 911 in drag race The study also found that MPVs retain value better than other family car types, with an average depreciation of 28.8%. Saloons, though, depreciate the quickest, losing nearly 36% of their value. This research comes as July is traditionally seen as the peak season for family car purchases in the UK - with cars able to retain their value often something financially conscious drivers think about. Aidan Rushby, founder and CEO of Carmoola, said: 'Buying a family car is an exciting and important decision that brings convenience, comfort, and peace of mind to everyday life. 'Our latest data shows that depreciation is often the largest hidden cost of ownership, so choosing a vehicle that holds its value well is a smart way to protect your investment. 'With July traditionally the busiest month for family car sales and potentially a busy summer of travel ahead, having a reliable car that retains its value like the Porsche Macan or Toyota Yaris Cross can save families thousands when it is time to upgrade or sell. 'As summer holidays approach, many families will be planning road trips and preparing for back-to-school costs. 'Selecting a car with strong resale value not only safeguards your investment but also ensures you have dependable transport for all your journeys.' 5 5
