All budgets / Price bracket

150,000 to 250,000 DKK

44 cars in our data sell for about this much, across ages 2020 to 2022, 2017 to 2019, 2014 to 2016. Ranked by total cost to own, not just the price tag.

The value argument

96.289 kr apart, for cars that cost the same to buy.

A Audi Q3 (2020-2022) costs 22.272 kr a year to own in this bracket. A Volvo XC90 (2014-2016) costs 49.783 kr, that is 27.511 kr more every year. Over the 3.5 years the data covers for both cars, that adds up to 96.289 kr. They are not the same kind of car: a bigger or newer model will typically cost more to run than a smaller one. But they cost the same to buy. Same money out of your pocket at purchase, very different money over the years that follow.

Filter this listHybrids are found by trim name (e.g. "Plug-in Hybrid"), not a clean data field, so this can miss a few. Why, on the methodology page.
Filter by segment
Assume how far you drive per year
Changes fuel cost and how much resale value erodes with distance. Ownership tax and the repair estimate stay flat per year regardless of mileage, so a high-mileage pick understates cost a little. Ranks and tiers below update to match.

Cheapest to own

Ranked purely on money: purchase minus resale, plus fuel, tax and repairs, per year.
