Frequently Asked Questions

What's a good interest rate for an auto loan?

Interest rates vary based on credit score, loan term, and lender. As of 2025, average rates range from 3% to 15%, with excellent credit qualifying for the lowest rates.

How much should I put down on a car?

Financial experts recommend putting down at least 20% of the vehicle's value to avoid being upside down on your loan and to reduce monthly payments.

What's the difference between APR and interest rate?

The interest rate is the cost of borrowing the money, while APR includes both the interest rate and additional fees, giving you the true cost of the loan.

Should I choose a shorter or longer loan term?

Shorter terms have higher monthly payments but lower total interest. Longer terms have lower monthly payments but higher total costs over time.
