How a car loan is calculated

A car loan is a standard amortising loan: each fixed monthly payment covers that month's interest plus a portion of the amount borrowed, so the balance reaches zero at the end of the term. The monthly rate is your APR divided by 12. A lower APR or a shorter term both reduce the total interest you pay — but a shorter term means higher monthly payments. This calculator assumes a fixed rate for the whole term and doesn't include arrangement fees some lenders charge.
