Compare the car deal by total financing cost, not the headline payment

A good auto-loan comparison starts with the out-the-door price, amount financed, APR, fees, rebates, trade-in credit, term, and any extra principal payments. The CFPB auto-loan resources are a useful reminder that the “best” payment is not always the lowest payment.

Use this calculator as a deal-sheet audit: change one dealership assumption at a time, then compare monthly payment, total interest, and total paid including cash down.

Anchor on out-the-door price

Ask for the price, tax, fees, add-ons, and rebate in writing. The FTC recommends reviewing financing terms and optional add-ons before signing.

Stress-test the term

A longer term lowers the payment but can increase total interest and keep the loan balance high for longer.

Use extra payments deliberately

Even small extra principal payments can improve payoff speed, but confirm whether your lender applies them to principal without prepayment penalties.

Frequently Asked Questions

  • At 7% APR over 60 months, a $50,000 car loan is about $990 a month. A larger down payment or a lower rate reduces this; a longer term lowers the monthly payment but you pay more interest overall.
  • Over 60 months at 7% APR, a $50,000 loan costs roughly $9,404 in total interest ($59,404 paid in total). Shortening the term or making extra payments cuts the interest — the calculator shows both.
  • A shorter term (e.g. 48 months) means a higher monthly payment but far less interest; a longer term (72 months) lowers the payment but costs more overall and risks going “underwater”. Compare every term in the table above.
