The four-door Jeep Wrangler Unlimited topped the list with depreciation of just 30 percent and two-door Wranglers lost 31.5 percent of their value. This despite the fact that they were replaced by an all-new model in 2018. The Jeeps were followed by three trucks from Toyota: the Tacoma (32.0), Tundra (35.9) and 4Runner (36.5).
