Pricing & value

64.4
Limited Value
Priced on the higher side relative to similar vehicles in this segment.

How we calculate the value score

The Value Score looks at how this model’s pricing compares with similar vehicles in its segment. We consider factors like depreciation patterns, brand retention, equipment levels, and pricing behavior of comparable listings rather than relying on a single book value.

What this means for you

A strong value score means this vehicle tends to be priced fairly versus similar models. You should still compare a few listings, but you’re not starting from a wildly overpriced segment where only deep discounts make it make sense.

Key assumptions

  • Assumes typical dealer discount off MSRP for this segment and brand.
  • Uses ShrewdCar’s depreciation curves based on similar model years and trims.
  • Assumes normal condition with no major accidents or prior fleet use.
