Although Toyota’s plug-in hybrid version of the RAV4 doesn’t quite hold its value as well as its gas-only counterpart, it’s still one of the best at 62% after five years.
Despite Toyota essentially creating the hybrid segment with the original Prius, values for the brand’s hybrid cars are generally a little less resilient than gas-powered versions.

The non-hybrid RAV4 is one of the best performers in its segment for retained value, keeping 65.3% of its original value over the half-decade measurement period.
According to some estimates, it’s also the world’s bestselling car overall, thanks to its reliability ratings, competitive standard tech, and spacious interior.
The Toyota Corolla Sedan is a reliable budget car. However, a major benefit to the vehicle is its resale value, estimated to retain 67.2% after five years.
Considering the asking price for a base-spec Corolla is so low, buyers can expect to lose less than $1,700 annually on average in depreciation over the five-year period.
