How to Use the Global Auto Loan Calculator

Buying a car is one of the largest financial decisions you will make. Dealerships often focus purely on the "monthly payment" to hide the true cost of a vehicle. Our completely free Auto Loan Payment Calculator empowers you to see exactly how much you are borrowing, what you will pay in interest, and what your final total cost will be before you ever step foot on a car lot. With support for multiple global currencies and balloon payments, you can perfectly plan your purchase anywhere in the world.

Step-by-Step Guide:

• Step 1: Choose Your Currency. Select your local currency from the dropdown at the top to ensure the numbers format correctly for your region.
• Step 2: Enter the Car Price. Input the negotiated total price of the vehicle you wish to purchase.
• Step 3: Add Trade-In & Down Payment. If you are trading in an old vehicle or putting cash down, enter those amounts. The calculator instantly subtracts these from the car price to determine your true loan amount (the principal).
• Step 4: Set Your Interest Rate (APR). Enter the Annual Percentage Rate you have been quoted by a bank, credit union, or the dealership.
• Step 5: Choose the Loan Term & Last Payment. Select how many months you plan to take to pay off the car. If your finance agreement includes a "Balloon" or "Residual" final payment at the end of the term (common in PCP finance), enter it in the Last Payment box.
• Step 6: Add Yearly Insurance. Most buyers forget this! Enter your yearly quoted insurance premium. The calculator will break this down to show your true monthly carrying cost.
• Step 7: Calculate. Click the blue button to reveal your estimated monthly payment, alongside a strict breakdown of your principal, total interest, and total insurance paid over the life of the loan.
