2-Year Forecasted Depreciation
*Depreciation for the last 12 months of the private party resale value.
Annual Depreciation is an estimation of what your vehicle's value might be over time based on an average of similar vehicles. Estimations are calculated by comparing Kelley Blue Book Private Party Values of vehicles similar to yours over time, as well as forecasts from Manheim Auction data comparing current and projected auction values against current Kelley Blue Book Private Party and Trade-In Values. This is not a guarantee of actual depreciation. Local weather conditions, market factors and driver performance will also impact your vehicle's actual depreciation.

With its European-inspired handling, Audi-like interior fit and finish, and impressive safety features, Volkswagen’s 2017 Golf feels like a big car in a little package. The Golf’s varied lineup includes the GTI and all-wheel-drive R, two of the best compact-performance cars on the market.
Hatchbacks aren’t for everyone. The open back is not as secure as a lockable trunk, and there’s more interior noise than with a sedan. With the diesel option gone and no hybrid offering, those seeking 40-plus mpg will need to look toward a Toyota Prius or Chevy Volt.
