Chevrolet Tahoe Depreciation by Year
How fast does a Chevrolet Tahoe lose value?
A Chevrolet Tahoe keeps about 68% of its new price after three years and 53% after five years, comparing each trim with the same trim new. That is about the same as the typical car in our study at three years. Bought new for $78,000, the typical Tahoe would be worth about $52,500 after three years if it ages like today's Tahoes.

Where a Tahoe loses its value
The first year takes 16% of the price. After the first year a Tahoe loses about 7 points of its new price a year in this snapshot.
The current Tahoe generation started with the 2021 model year. The last Tahoes of the previous generation (2020) keep 41% of the same trim new, 12 points less than the year after them, where a typical year costs about 6. See how a new generation affects used prices.
Compare with how fast the typical car loses value and with the cars that hold their value best.
About the data
We compared asking prices for cars listed for sale in the U.S. on November 9, 2026, one listing per car. "New" is the median asking price of new 2026 models. For each older model year we used cars with about 12,000 miles a year for their age (for example 27,000–45,000 miles for a 2023). We compared every trim with the same trim new and averaged the trims, weighted by the number of cars, so a shift in trim mix does not look like depreciation. Typical asking prices in the tables are the median of all trims at that age.
This is a snapshot of today's prices by age, not one car followed over time. A car you buy now can lose value faster or slower, especially if a new generation arrives. Asking prices are before negotiation, taxes and fees. New cars often sell below sticker, so the real first-year loss can be smaller than shown. We left out modified cars and prices that were clearly not a full asking price.
Questions
How much is a 3-year-old Chevrolet Tahoe worth?
About 68% of the same trim new. On November 9, 2026, 2023 Tahoes with around 38,000 mi had a typical asking price of $55,000 (850 cars), against $78,000 for a new 2026.
Does the Chevrolet Tahoe hold its value?
At three years it keeps 68%, about the same as the typical car in our study (68%, the median of 79 models).
How much value does a new Chevrolet Tahoe lose in the first year?
About 16%: one-year-old 2025 Tahoes ask 84% of the same trim new. New cars often sell below their asking price, so the real loss can be smaller.
