As years pass by people are finding more and more ways to improve the things we use on a daily basis. This includes home appliances, the technology that we use, and goes all the way down to the cars that we are driving. Cars that are on the market are continuously changing. Car innovators are finding new and better ways to make cars more comfortable to ride and drive in, they have better cars that are designed to keep passengers safe even in the event of an accident while still catching the eye of everyone you drive by as they are beautiful! However, no matter how beautiful or innovative the car may be, once you invest in it and drive it off of the lot, its value begins to depreciate. Below are 50 cars that are designed to fit your needs that do not lose too much of their value as you drive them.
1. Mini Cooper Countryman
This car is also known as the Mini Hatch, Mini One, or just plain Mini and was first manufactured by BMW after the original Mini Cooper brand went out of business in the early 2000s. The primary reasons that the Mini Cooper has begun to depreciate in value are because it is hard and expensive to replace tires that go flat and the tires are designed to be low to the ground for visual reasons which also means they experience more wear and tear faster and are more likely to go flat fast.
Mini Coops are also expensive to do regular maintenance on and its overhaul price is not fixed. The average cost is roughly $170,000 and has a 13.8% depreciation value.
2. Trailblazer LTZ by Chevrolet
