Which models hold their value best?
Although not a massive difference in percentages, the diesel models appear to have the lowest depreciation rates which could mean they are the better sellers and there's possibly a bigger demand for those models. It's likely that the mid-level Jaguar E-PACE D180 2.0D SE (132 kW) is the sought after model in the diesel range and the mid-level E-PACE P250 2.0 SE (183 kW) is the sought after model in the petrol range.
A good guide to value depreciation is to bear in mind that second-hand prices generally reflect popularity in the new-car market. So the most popular models hold their value better in the used-car arena, as the same laws of supply and demand follow.
There are exceptions to this, and often the differences in value retention are clouded by factors such as the condition of the car and how it has been maintained over the years, as well as its mileage, but given equal condition and mileage, the percentage drop-off on the more popular models in a range will be less.
