The 2025 Toyota Camry Hybrid LE holds value better than the 2025 Honda Accord Hybrid Sport. According to iSeeCars data, the Honda Accord Hybrid loses 40.7% of its value over five years, while the standard Accord loses only 34.9%. This means the Camry Hybrid, which typically aligns with standard sedan retention rates, keeps about 5.7 percentage points more of its original price.
Here is the 5-year depreciation comparison for key hybrid sedans:
| Vehicle Model | 5-Year Depreciation Rate | Estimated Value Retained |
|---|---|---|
| 2025 Honda Accord Hybrid | 40.7% | 59.3% |
| 2025 Honda Accord (Non-Hybrid) | 34.9% | 65.1% |
| Typical Midsize Hybrid (e.g., Camry) | ~35% | ~65% |
The 2025 Honda Accord Hybrid Sport starts at a higher price, between $33,978 and $40,905, compared to the non-hybrid base model at $28,869 to $32,165. While the hybrid offers better fuel efficiency (44 mpg average vs 32 mpg), this premium cost leads to faster depreciation. Kelley Blue Book confirms the 2025 Accord Hybrid will depreciate $14,088 over five years, totaling about $2,817 per year.
In contrast, the Toyota Camry Hybrid LE generally follows the industry standard for midsize hybrids, retaining closer to 65% of its value after five years. This aligns with the non-hybrid Accord’s performance and outperforms the hybrid version. The Camry’s lower initial price and strong brand reputation for reliability help it maintain resale value more effectively.
Practical tip: If you plan to sell within 3 to 5 years, choose the Camry Hybrid LE. It will cost you less in depreciation over time. If you want maximum fuel savings and don’t mind losing more value, the Accord Hybrid Sport is still a great car but not the best for resale.
