In 2021, 5-year-old cars have risen in price more than 3-year-old ones

In Russia, cars aged 5 years become more expensive than 3-year-olds. This is the conclusion reached by the experts of the analytical agency "AUTOSTAT" in the process of preparing the review "Monitoring of prices in the secondary market". Thus, from January to November 2021, the average price* of a 3-year-old passenger car grew by 18%.

With regard to a particular model, this indicator is noticeably different.

For 3-year-old Hyundai Solaris and Creta, as well as Volkswagen Polo, the average price growth was 18%, and for LADA Vesta and Granta sedan - 16%. Among those 3-year-old cars that added in price less than others, it is worth noting, for example, Chevrolet Niva (+ 8%) and Toyota Camry (+ 9%).
