When buying a car, most shoppers make a down payment and take out a car loan to cover the remaining cost of the vehicle. Then, they make monthly payments, including the APR (annual percentage rate), which includes the interest rate and any additional fees from the lender, until the car is paid off in full.
Along with the APR, when buying a car, there is also a state sales tax and a registration fee.
Another factor that determines the monthly payments for a car loan is the term or period of time you have to pay it off. Most car loans last between about 36 and 72 months. The car loan agreement identifies the amount of each monthly payment and the number of payments you will make.
To help you begin the auto loan process from home, we offer a convenient and secure finance application that you can use to get pre-approved online. This will show you the loan amount and rate you can expect.
Once you have an idea of your auto loan offer, you can set your price range for your next car. With our virtual finance tools, you can quickly narrow in on a vehicle that suits both your lifestyle and budget.
With our payment calculator, you can compare car loan estimates for your top choices. Plug in your estimated or preferred interest rate, car loan terms, trade-in value, and down payment to view your options.
If you would like to trade in your current set of wheels, you can also use our value your trade form to check its worth. Then, you can apply its value towards the down payment, which reduces the amount you will finance with a car loan.
