Please explain the research you mention...
None, you paid the depreciation up front. Or, said another way, a bit of each payment was paid up front, thus lowering each monthly payment. If there was equity in the car (I.e. the insurance payout is more than what is owed on the contract) then you might get some money back, but it’s unlikely.
