This calculator provides estimates for educational purposes only. Results are based on the inputs you provide and standard financial formulas. They do not constitute financial, investment, tax, or legal advice. Consult a qualified professional before making financial decisions.
A common guideline is at least 10-20% down on a new car and 10% on a used one. A larger down payment reduces your loan amount, monthly payment, and total interest — and helps avoid being "underwater" (owing more than the car is worth) early on.
Your trade-in's value is subtracted from the vehicle price before financing, directly reducing the loan amount — just like an extra down payment.
A longer term lowers your monthly payment but increases total interest paid and the risk of being underwater on the loan for longer, since cars depreciate faster than the loan balance falls in the early years.
Getting pre-approved by a bank or credit union gives you a real interest rate to compare against dealer financing, and strengthens your negotiating position on the vehicle price itself.
