What the depreciation data tells us
- Flagship British SUVs lead the depreciation. Range Rover sits at the top with about 18% per year, almost double what entry Land Rovers see.
- The German executive sedans S-Class, 7-Series, and A8 all sit between 12 and 15% per year. High new-car volume keeps the used market well stocked.
- Compact and mid-size German luxury holds up better. GLC, X-Series, Macan, and Evoque all settle near 11% per year.
- Post-warranty maintenance is the silent factor. German V8 engines and Range Rover air suspensions become expensive once the dealer warranty lapses, accelerating buyer turnover.
- Lease return cycles in Qatar push three to four-year-old units back into the market in waves. That keeps mid-life resale soft for the entire segment.
These rankings are generated by machine-learning models trained on publicly available Qatar used-car listings. The order shown may be partially or fully wrong — RaqamQatar does not have the final word on what actually depreciates fastest or what is truly reliable. We track market behaviour, not vehicle quality directly. Sample size, listing biases, regional preferences, and brand-new market entrants all shape the numbers you see here. Treat this as one data point alongside dealer information, real-world reviews, and your own inspection — not as the only factor in your buying decision.
