Used Cars with the Biggest Price Drops
We've got good news and bad news. First, the good news: Used car prices have "likely peaked." That's according to J.P. Morgan, which predicts the price of used cars will "decline by roughly 10 percent" this year. The bad news, however, is that even accounting for this decline, used car prices are still trading hands at far higher prices than they were before the start of the pandemic.
That said, the researchers at iSeeCars found a number of used vehicles that are leading the pack when it comes to year-over-year price declines. Read on to learn about the 10 used cars with the biggest percentage price change in the last year, according to iSeeCars.

4. Tesla Model 3—19.3 Percent Decline in Price
Given Tesla's recent price cuts to its new cars, it's little surprise the prices of the brand's used cars are also falling. According to iSeeCars, used Model 3s seem to be taking the brunt of this hit, with their average price falling by $9914 from $51,251 to $41,337 in February 2023.

7. Audi S5 Sportback—17.6 Percent Decline in Price
Punchier than your run-of-the-mill A5, but not quite as much of a monster as the RS5, the S5 strikes us as the Baby Bear to its Mama and Papa Bear kin.
