As described in the figure below, cars of the car manufacturer Audi and specially of their model A5 devaluate in a very normal fashion. The average selling price of the A5 will be lowered by up to 13% ($42,817) after just one year. After 3 years, the car usually is sold for about 64% of its original selling price ($31,297) while it will only be valued at 27% of the original price after 7 years ($12,121). The A5's value after 12 years is only 10% of its original price depending on its condition of course.
