The vehicle’s purchase price is the biggest influencing factor on the cost of a car finance agreement. Interest is applied to the cash price, then the initial deposit is deducted, and the resulting balance is split into monthly instalments over the selected loan term.
The deposit you pay at the start of your finance loan will be subtracted from your overall balance. That means a larger deposit will result in lower monthly repayments, while a smaller deposit will mean higher monthly payments.
The length of your finance term will affect your monthly payment amount. Choose a longer term, and you’ll likely have smaller monthly repayments, although interest may be higher. A shorter term can mean better interest rates, but the monthly repayments will usually be bigger.
Car finance loans typically carry interest that’s added to the overall balance. This amount can be influenced by factors such as the term length and your credit history.
