OK, here's what Edmunds really says:

Average price actually paid new for 2014 Altima: $19420

Average dealer trade in value Dec 2015 $13191

Average retail value Dec 2015 $15733

(Assumptions: 2.5l CV, S trim, clean, 20K miles)

So the 2 year depreciation from new retail to used wholesale is $6229, or 32%

2 year depreciation from new retail to used retail is $3687, or just 19%.

Hell of a long way from "...46% per year".
