Frequently asked questions

How is an auto loan payment calculated?
Monthly payment = P × [r(1+r)^n] / [(1+r)^n - 1], where P = loan amount, r = monthly rate (APR ÷ 12), n = term in months. This is the standard EMI formula used by all lenders.
What credit score do I need for an auto loan?
You can get an auto loan with any credit score, but 720+ earns the best rates (4–7%). Scores 660–719 qualify for competitive rates. Below 580 (subprime) may see 15–25% rates from specialty lenders.
What is the average auto loan interest rate in the US?
As of 2025, average auto loan rates are approximately 6–8% for new cars and 9–12% for used cars for borrowers with good credit. Rates vary by lender, loan term, credit score, and vehicle age.
What is gap insurance for auto loans?
GAP (Guaranteed Asset Protection) insurance pays the difference between what you owe on your auto loan and the car's actual cash value if it's totalled or stolen. It's especially valuable in the first 1–2 years when vehicles depreciate fastest.
