BMW Resale Value

If you’re shopping for a new car or a used car, one of the deciding factors may be resale value. Do BMW models hold their value over time? The long-term reliability of BMW vehicles is one of the many reasons that these luxury performance cars and SUVs are so sought after by Providence-area drivers like you. This certainly affects the resale value, and if you plan on trading in your BMW down the road, you’ll find that the BMW resale value is quite impressive. That being said, some BMW models hold more of their resale value than others. In this guide from BMW of Warwick, we’ll take a look at the models that tend to have the highest BMW resale value in order to help you decide which BMW to purchase.

BMW X3

The BMW X3 resale value has been very consistent, with the 2015, 2014, and 2013 BMW X3 model years offering some of the best resale values. On average, a 2015 model year pre-owned BMW X3 usually sells for around 40% of the original cost.

The BMW X3 is a powerful and efficient compact luxury SUV that has only improved with time, and the most recent versions retain their value at an even better rate. The latest model comes with a 248-hp turbo engine, Brake Energy Regeneration, oak wood trim, smartphone integration, HiFi Sound System with 12 speakers, HD Radio™, and much more. With seating for up to five and a cargo capacity of 28.7 to 62.7 cubic feet, the X3 could be an ideal choice for families or anyone who leads an active lifestyle.

BMW 2-Series

As one of the most budget-friendly options in the BMW lineup, the BMW 2-Series holds onto its value more efficiently than even the wildly popular BMW 3-Series. The primary reason for this is that it isn’t leased as often. Models that are popular lease options tend to be readily available at dealerships, due to the fact that they’re frequently turned in at the end of lease contracts. This makes the 2-Series retain a higher resale value.

The 2016, 2017, and 2019 BMW 2-Series models currently offer the best resale values. For example, a used 2016 2-Series is usually offered at 52% of the original cost. If you are interested in a small luxury sedan to upgrade your Cranston commute, the 2-Series can be a great option. The most recent model offers a 248-hp turbo engine, Launch Control (with the automatic transmission), driver-selectable drive modes, Active Driving Assistant®, and more.

BMW Z4

The BMW Z4 is not only a sporty roadster that is sure to turn heads on East Greenwich roads, but its resale value is one of the best in its class. The 2014, 2015, and 2016 BMW Z4 models currently offer the best values. On average, you can expect to pay around 46% of the original cost for a pre-owned 2015 Z4.

The latest BMW Z4 packs a 255-hp turbo engine, Variable Sport Steering, a heated-glass rear window, BMW ConnectedDrive® Services, smartphone integration, Dynamic Cruise Control®, and Live Cockpit Professional with a 10.25-inch touchscreen and a touchpad controller.
