Depreciation is a myth. A car is a tool not an investment. And if depreciation is a real worry for normal people then why do houses not depreciate? They don't last forever. In fact on average they only last 50 years. But their prices never go down. Not until they get condemned. Why doesn't the price on a 5 year old car go up instead of down? It's got 10 more years in it easily and it's proven not to be a lemon.

But you know what the real insanity is? Paying 400 dollars a month for years for a car with extra restrictions and then having to turn it in or pay even more to own it. Subscription cars need a lot more consideration, like full warranty, maintenance, and insurance for the entire lease period. Upgrade deals at the end. Because the way it is now you're just giving shit up to keep paying a corporation.
