Cars That Are Set To Plummet In Value This Year

VW Passat

While the VW Passat isn’t a luxury car, it can be bought for a fraction of its original price, and for a family midsized sedan, that’s great. It has a wide variety of engines, advanced technology, and features. You might wonder how it could be bought for so cheap now. This is because of Volkswagen’s emission cheating scandal. A lot of diesel-powered Passats had to be recalled which gave Volkswagen a whole lot of bad press, causing their whole model lineup to drop in price. As a result, a Passat from 2014 that would have cost $25k is now worth $12-$13k depending on its options. We certainly don’t recommend buying one with the notorious diesel engine, but the regular, gasoline engine version is also cheap.

Dodge Magnum

This station wagon is essentially the same thing as the Charger only with a different design and a more sleek profile. It has the same mechanics as the Charger or the Chrysler 300C, meaning it has rear-wheel drive, powerful engines, and great build quality. As it turns out, the market never fully accepted this model since it was introduced at the beginning of the SUV craze. For this reason, you can find a Dodge Magnum for just $7k – a small price for such a good car.
