Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV,depreciation

I own a Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV, which I bought from new in 2015. I am thinking about changing to a BMW 2 Series Grand Tourer 218 diesel because residual values on the Mitsubishi seem to depreciate greater. Should I swap in my PHEV for a 2 Series or keep it?

The residual value of your Outlander PHEV will have already suffered its biggest percentage drop. First year depreciation is always the greatest.
