  • Condition of the car: Well-maintained cars depreciate slower than neglected ones
  • Technological advancements: Older cars may depreciate faster due to outdated tech
  • Government policies: Policy changes such as a ban on diesel vehicles can affect the value of certain cars
  • Insurance history: Clean insurance records may positively impact resale value
