Resale value is the price I would be able to recoup when I sale it after xx years (in my case 3-4)
It reduces the depreciation dramatically which in turn translates into the Real Cost per KM of the car
eg if I drive buy cultus for say Rs. 950,000 and it sells for Rs. 800,000 after 3 years, and Ive driven only 50,000 km, it means a cost of 3 Rs. per KM should be added to the average mileage per km
on the other hand, if I buy a swift ay Rs. 1,100,000 and it sells for Rs. 900,000 after 3 years, and Ive driven only 50,000 km, it means a cost of 4 Rs. per KM should be added to the average mileage per km
So in the above scenario, Cultus is better.
Im looking forward to your reply
