Car Loan Calculator Assumptions
The figures provided should be used as an estimate only, should not be relied on as true indication of your car loan repayments, or a quote or indication of pre-qualification for any car loan product. The figures are based upon the information you put into the calculator. We have made a number of assumptions when producing the calculations including:
- Loan term, vehicle purchase price, and loan amount: We assume the loan term, vehicle purchase price, and loan amount are what you enter into the calculator.
- Interest rates: We assume that the rate you enter, is the rate that will apply to your loan for the full loan term.
- Interest and repayments: The displayed total interest payable is the interest for the loan term, calculated on the entered interest rate.
- Payable over 3/4/5 years figure excludes any balloon payment

FAQs
Most car loan lenders will allow you to borrow up to 100% of the car's value, meaning you may not require any deposit on a car loan. However, if you want to help lower your repayments you may wish to consider a 5% -10% deposit, to lower the amount you borrow.
A balloon payment is a one-off lump sum that you agree to pay your lender at the end of your car loan's term. It is called a "balloon" because it is very inflated compared to your other payments.
This one-off final payment can account for a large proportion of your car loan which means your regular car loan repayments are a lower amount for the majority of the loan term until it comes to paying your balloon.
It's important to note - the balloon repayment option is only available if you get a fixed car loan, and will not be available for the variable car loan.
A new car is one that is sold in its original condition, usually at a car dealership and has never had any previous owners.
When you get a car loan, we are lending you money to buy a new or used car.
You then repay to us the amount you borrowed and your interest repayments over a loan term of between 3-7 years+.
Once your loan has been fully paid off and you've completed paying the total amount, and you own your vehicle!
Some lenders can offer a car loan pre-approval to give you peace of mind and understanding how much you can afford will give you confidence to negotiate a good deal on your next car purchase. At loans.com.au, we can offer pre-approval for car loans.
A secured car loan is a loan for which you offer the lender some sort of security, which is usually the vehicle itself.
The alternative to a secured car loan is an unsecured loan where no security is offered. Because this is more risky for the lender, unsecured loans generally come with a much higher interest rate than secured loans. loans.com.au does not offer unsecured car loans.
At loans.com.au, one of our friendly car loan specialists will give you a call to go through your employment, income and expenses to confirm your eligibility. We'll then run a credit check and pending the outcome, offer you a pre-approval for a car loan which will be valid for 60 days and allow you to purchase your new car with confidence!
