9. Jaguar XF
"Jaguar is notorious for having high operating costs, which may cause new car owners to give up their cars soon after purchase," iSeeCars CEO Phong Ly said in a prepared statement.
"However, the automaker has fought to improve that perception by recently decreasing prices and adding free scheduled maintenance for new cars."
The data says 8.8% of Jaguar XFs were resold.
8. Nissan Versa Note
The second Nissan Versa on the list is the hatchback Note version. The data says 9% of the Notes were resold.
7. BMW X3
"Despite the popularity of the [BMW X3 and X1], they generally have below-average reliability ratings from Consumer Reports, which could contribute to why owners get rid of them so quickly," Ly said.
Like the Nissan Versa Note, 9% of the BMW X3s were resold.
6. BMW X1
"Another possible explanation is that BMW and Mercedes offer incentives to their dealers to buy new cars to use as loaner vehicles, which are then sold as used when they are still under a year old," Ly continued.
"In turn, this boosts the brand's new car sales and introduces current customers to new models when they bring in their vehicles for service."
The data says 10.4% of the X1s were resold.
5. Mini Clubman
The Mini Clubman is the most expensive car on the list. Its price, in conjunction with its low fuel-economy rating, may have caused drivers to want to trade it in for something more efficient, Ly said.
The data says 10.7% of the cars purchased were resold.
4. Land Rover Range Rover Evoque
The data says 10.9% of the Land Rover Range Rover Evoque models sold were resold.
3. Land Rover Discovery Sport
"The Discovery Sport and the Range Rover Evoque each have poor projected reliability ratings from J.D. Power, which could contribute to why owners would want to give them up," Ly said.
The data says 11.8% of the Discovery Sport units sold were resold.
2. BMW 3 Series
The data says 11.8% of the 3 Series sold were resold.
1. Mercedes-Benz C-Class
The most resold car, 12.4% of these Mercedes were resold used within the first year. This is 3.7 times more than the average for all vehicles.
