Let’s be honest, as Americans we invest in a car for the pleasure and convenience having a vehicle offers us and not for an eventual return on investment. In fact, in 99% of cases you will lose money by purchasing a car simply because of depreciation. Smart car buyers know this, and in turn they attempt to purchase vehicles that are noted for having high resale value.
For 2014 you can count Audi among those manufacturers with vehicles that offer above-average residual value, as ALG is awarding the Audi A5, A6, and Q7 for their ability to maintain the highest percentage of their original value over a typical three-year ownership period.
While all Audi’s offer residual value that will impress new car shoppers, the A5, A6, and Q7 each stood out above other competitors’ models due in part to strong demand in the market for these three vehicles.
This is no surprise, as each model offers quality and style that many competitors lack. More importantly, each model has evolved over time to appeal to a larger audience.
The A5 enters 2014 with 10 more horsepower from its standard turbo four-cylinder engine. It continues to be available as both a coupe and convertible, offering an option to both driving enthusiasts and sun worshippers alike.
For the 2014 model year, Audi added a diesel engine to the A6 range. Capable of achieving 24 mpg city and 38 mpg highway, the A6 TDI gives consumers an entirely new way to think about the mid-size luxury sedan segment.
Meanwhile, the Q7 continues to offer the quality and class expected of an Audi product, with the capabilities and comfort of a seven-passenger SUV. Available with both gas and diesel engine options, the Q7 is able to reach a wide audience of interested customers.
