These 15 Cars Will Be Worthless by 2028 — ranked with iSeeCars' 2026 five-year depreciation study (950,000 cars), Kelley Blue Book's 2026 resale awards, Cox Automotive's Manheim index and forecasts, and the rental companies' own SEC filings. The five-year figures are what happened to 2020–21 model-year cars; "2028" is a projection: it extrapolates iSeeCars' observed five-year depreciation rates, and the video says so.
