Normally, the value of a new car drops by about 7% every year, but there are some models that boast higher price drop rates, making them bad choices if you\u2019re planning to hand them over to a new owner at some point in the future. Here are the five models to avoid reselling due to high depreciation rates:\r\n\r\n \r\n

1) Perodua Axia<\/h2>\r\n

The main reasons for this include the not so much acknowledged brandname of the Malaysian car manufacturer, the poor performance of Axia\u2019s 66bhp engine, the somewhat problematic 4-speed automatic gearbox, and the not so great fuel consumption for this category. The Axia isn\u2019t fun to drive, isn\u2019t comfortable, isn\u2019t quiet, and doesn\u2019t have anything special to offer in the equipment sector either. If you happen to own one, keep it for your small city excursions instead of trying to resell it.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n

2) Chery J3<\/h2>\r\n
\"\"

While it is way beyond anything else coming from China in terms of safety, it is a cheap build in general. This is reflected in its plastic interior and low acquisition price. That said, its value is expected to diminish quickly.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n

3) Mitsubishi Attrage<\/h2>\r\n
\"\"

Most complain about its underpowered motor which sounds like it\u2019s gonna blow up when pressed to reach higher rpm. Other complaints include the boring handling, the low ride comfort levels, and the lack of true character.\r\n\r\n \r\n

4) Citroen C4<\/h2>\r\n
\"\"

It seems that the feature-packed Citroen can\u2019t persuade the world of its quality, and now that it isn\u2019t very successfully promoted through the World Rally Championship like its predecessor was, things look disheartening.\r\n\r\n \r\n\r\n \r\n

5) Suzuki Lapin<\/h2>\r\n
\"\"

Check. Has it already been on the market for six years, so a drastic facelift is probably already in the works? Check. Does it have an astonishingly poor fuel consumption performance considering the fact that it is powered by a mere 658cc 54bhp engine? Check. Is it already overpriced because of the trend and hype that surrounds it? Check. Enough said...","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
