Honda tops "retained value" charts

Automotive Lease Guide has released the latest charts for retained value and Honda tops it for the second year in a row. Residual value looks more closely at wholesale price while resale value focuses on the retail price. Toyota picks up second, Nissan third, VW forth and Jeep fifth. Domestic makes were shut out of the top spots for the individual awards. The Ford owned Volvo XC90 did win the crossover category.
