What is a Car Loan and How Does It Work?

A car loan is a line of credit that allows you to borrow money to buy or lease a new or used vehicle. It typically lasts for 3-5 years, but the terms are flexible and may be shorter or longer.

A car loan is very convenient for consumers with stable employment because they no longer have to worry about saving up enough money before they can buy a new car.


Down Payment vs. Monthly Car Loan Payments

The down payment is a large amount of money that a car buyer pays at the time of purchase. On the other hand, the monthly car loan payments are a fixed amount that a car buyer will pay every month until he or she pays off the entire loan.

In terms of finances, an individual may want to calculate how much to pay on a car loan based on interest rates and tax deductions. To do this, an individual will need to know their total expected monthly payments for their loan period as well as their down payment.

The monthly payment is going to be less for individuals who put more down on the vehicle they're buying. This is because they have already paid more for it, and they don't need as many monthly payments to complete the purchase of the car.


Interest Rates on a Car Loan

An APR is the cost of borrowing money over a period of time and it's typically expressed as an annual percentage rate (APR).

There are two main types of APR: fixed and variable. A fixed APR is set for a specific period of time whereas the variable APR changes over time. The interest rates on car loans can vary from 3% to 8%.
