Honda Civic Depreciation by Year
How fast does a Honda Civic lose value?
A Honda Civic keeps about 85% of its new price after three years and 72% after five years, comparing each trim with the same trim new. That is 18 points better than the typical car in our study at three years. Bought new for $28,000, the typical Civic would be worth about $24,000 after three years if it ages like today's Civics.

Where a Civic loses its value
The first year takes 8% of the price. After the first year a Civic loses about 5 points of its new price a year in this snapshot.
The current Civic generation started with the 2022 model year. The last Civics of the previous generation (2021) keep 72% of the same trim new, 8 points less than the year after them, where a typical year costs about 4. See how a new generation affects used prices.

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.
