The Honda CR-V is one of the best-selling compact SUVs in North America and consistently ranks among the top vehicles for resale value. Its reputation for reliability, efficient hybrid powertrain, and broad buyer demand give it above-average retained value, with depreciation notably slower than most competitors in the compact crossover segment.

Honda CR-V depreciation by country

The same car depreciates at different rates in different markets. Here's how the Honda CR-V depreciation rate changes across the seven major markets we track.

🇺🇸
United States
Baseline

Baseline market. The CR-V is one of the top three best-selling SUVs in the US and demand keeps used prices firm, especially for AWD and Hybrid trims.

Currency: USD Unit: mi
🇨🇦
Canada
+2% retention

Extremely popular in Canada where AWD is a must-have. CR-Vs retain value slightly better than in the US, particularly in Ontario and Quebec winter markets.

Currency: CAD Unit: km
🇬🇧
United Kingdom
-10% retention

UK buyers lean toward the smaller HR-V and European rivals like the Qashqai, so CR-V depreciation runs a bit steeper. Hybrid versions hold up best in urban ULEZ zones.

Currency: GBP Unit: mi
🇪🇺
Europe
-13% retention

Mainland Europe favors smaller crossovers and diesel alternatives; CR-V depreciates faster than in North America. The hybrid-only lineup since 2023 has slightly improved residuals.

Currency: EUR Unit: km
🇸🇦
Saudi Arabia
+5% retention

Well-regarded family SUV in Saudi Arabia with strong demand for reliable, fuel-efficient crossovers. Gasoline AWD trims hold value particularly well in the Gulf resale market.

Currency: SAR Unit: km
🇮🇳
India
-18% retention

Honda discontinued the CR-V in India in 2020, which has softened resale due to parts concerns. Remaining diesel units from the last generation depreciate faster than gasoline ones.

Currency: INR Unit: km
🇦🇺
Australia
-4% retention

A steady seller in Australia's medium SUV segment. Depreciation is close to the US pattern, though Toyota RAV4 Hybrid dominance caps CR-V residuals slightly.

Currency: AUD Unit: km

Honda CR-V depreciation after an accident

An accident on a vehicle's history permanently increases its depreciation rate, even after perfect repairs. Here's how much extra depreciation each severity level adds to a Honda CR-V.

Minor accident
+8% depreciation

Paintwork, bumper scuffs, non-structural repairs. Disclosed on history reports but limited resale impact.

Moderate accident
+18% depreciation

Panel replacement, airbag deployment, meaningful CARFAX entry. Significantly accelerates depreciation.

Major accident
+33% depreciation

Frame damage, flood, salvage title. Permanent depreciation hit even after full restoration.

This "diminished value" is the extra depreciation a car carries after an accident. Insurance rarely reimburses it — our calculator bakes it into every depreciation estimate.

Honda CR-V FAQ

How much does a Honda CR-V depreciate per year?
A new Honda CR-V typically depreciates about 12% in its first year and 7–8% each year after. After 5 years, a CR-V retains roughly 62% of its original MSRP, well ahead of the compact SUV segment average of around 50%. This makes it one of the strongest value-retaining crossovers on the market.
What is a Honda CR-V worth after 5 years?
A CR-V purchased new for $35,000 will typically be worth around $21,700 after 5 years of average driving (about 70,000 miles). Hybrid and AWD EX-L trims can fetch up to 5–8% more than base LX FWD models at that age.
Does the CR-V Hybrid depreciate slower than the gas version?
Yes. The CR-V Hybrid typically retains 3–5% more of its value at the 5-year mark than the equivalent gas trim. Rising fuel prices and steady demand for fuel-efficient family SUVs more than offset the modest hybrid MSRP premium.
How does mileage affect Honda CR-V depreciation?
Each mile above the 14,000-per-year average reduces CR-V resale value by roughly $0.013. High-mileage CR-Vs (over 100,000 miles) still sell well due to Honda's reliability reputation, but expect a 15–20% penalty compared to average-mileage examples of the same year.
How much value does an accident take off a Honda CR-V?
A minor fender-bender reduces resale by about 8%, a moderate accident with airbag deployment by around 18%, and a major structural accident by roughly 33%. These diminished-value hits remain on the Carfax permanently, even after professional repairs.
