买什么车最保值

The logic is flawed.

Q5 is ~$70k new, from the graph Q5 worth 60% ($42k), you lose $28k.
Lancer is ~$22k new, loss 62% mean $13.5k

Lancer is much, MUCH cheaper to run and service with 5 yr warranty.

You save more money with Lancer.

Buy a new Suzuki Alto for $12k, dump the car in 5 years and buy another one, dump it again in 5 years and still cost less than a Q5...
Depreciation should calculate in $, not %.

Q5、大切？老外很喜欢修车么

people could afford Lancer dont mean they also could afford Q5, for those people with annual income around 55K, buying a lancer and lossing 13.5K in 5yr could be painful. While for those with annual income more than 100K, buying a Q5 and lossing 28K in 5 years could be accepted.  So your logic is also flawed. People should value this depend on their income level and total asset and I sitll believe dep. should based on the %.

Your question is about "最保值", affordability was not part of the question. As you've said people who consider Q5 will not look at Lancer, so what's the point comparing them?
I brought the point up because you mentioned Q5 and Lancer in your comparison. Which IMO is manipulating data in order to make Q5 sound better than it is. (I have nothing again Audi.)

When comparing depreciation by percentage, comparison should only be vailded between cars with similar market price.

1. so what's the point comparing them?

didnt u see "列入表格的是本人比较感兴趣的车辆", I can afford Q5 but also very fancy lancer. so the whole comparison is based on cars I interested, but rgardless the price.

2. Which IMO is manipulating data in order to make Q5 sound better than it is

not at all, the only thing I believe in my life is number, so the findings are all based on numbers only.

3. comparison should only be vailded between cars with similar market price.

well, again, "列入表格的是本人比较感兴趣的车辆", do you think a sedan will have the similar price with a SUV, most family prefer sedan+suv, what happened then? Your point is perfect right in business research or a uni essay, but I am talking about famly cars, not the study, relax.

当然是保时捷，绝对的保值哈

買金條最保值
要保值就不買車
買車...其一是用車
其二是玩樂

我只會買自己喜歡的車
