MAKE SENSE OF THE NUMBERS

An older model year changes more than the price.

A price gap is not a depreciation rate

These prices compare different vehicles on the market. An older model year may offer a lower asking price, but mileage, equipment and the mix of listings also change.

Condition needs its own check

History, equipment and physical condition can change the value of an individual car. A model-year median cannot confirm any of them.

BEFORE YOU DECIDE

Volkswagen Touareg value & depreciation questions

Answers grounded in the data shown here.

How much does a Volkswagen Touareg depreciate per year?

This snapshot does not measure annual depreciation of one car. The 2012 typically asks $8,997, 28% below the 2016's $12,477. These are different vehicles listed on September 26, 2026; mileage, trim, condition and redesigns can affect the difference.

How do older Volkswagen Touareg asking prices compare with the newest model year?

A 2012 Volkswagen Touareg asks about 72% of the 2016's typical asking price ($8,997 vs $12,477). The “Share of baseline ask” column in the table above shows the same share for every model year in between.

Which Volkswagen Touareg model year is cheapest?

The 2005 Volkswagen Touareg is the most affordable model year we track, typically listed at $5,988. Compare every year in the table above.

How many Volkswagen Touareg model years can I compare here?

This depreciation curve covers 11 model years, from 2004 to 2017, each priced from dealer listings in the September 26, 2026 snapshot.

Is this a forecast of my car's resale value?

No. These are dealer asking prices for different vehicles in a dated snapshot. They do not measure the value lost by one car over time, original MSRP depreciation, or final transaction prices.

How does mileage affect Volkswagen Touareg asking prices?

Open a model year to see its available odometer groups, asking prices and listing counts. Mileage is the distance recorded on the odometer. Price differences also reflect condition, trim and equipment; sparse groups are labelled separately.

Typical price
Median asking price per model year, or the average when the median is unavailable. The price basis is labelled on each row.
Price range
25th–75th percentile: the middle half of the listing sample, not a confidence interval. Missing ranges are not estimated.

Mileage groups

What is not measured
Original MSRP loss, future resale value, or a guaranteed price for an individual VIN.
