While buying a new car is typically out of reach for most people, used cars can help you achieve your automotive goals.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While most of us are aware that we can get finance easily while purchasing a used car. But an interesting part which most of us don\u2019t know is we can also Re-Finance our existing vehicle or in simple terms, we can get money by hypothecating the car that we already own.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The rate of interest for applying for a used car loan in India is approximately as low as 12%-16%. Based on the borrower&#8217;s credit rating, he can take up a car loan for 90% to 100% of the car&#8217;s market price while he is buying a used car. Nowadays many public sector banks in India also provide used car loans at an affordable rate of interest. However, while applying for a used car loan, it is critical to check availability and make the necessary safeguards.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, in certain situations, refinancing your car would be a better option. Refinancing an automobile makes absolute sense when one needs a loan for a shorter tenure for business purposes or for personal use. It is generally cheaper than a Business or a Personal Loan. Also, you can get up to 200% of the car\u2019s value. Refinancing your car is not advisable, if you&#8217;re underwater on your current loan, just acquired a new automobile, or your current loan involves prepayment penalties.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<div id=\"ez-toc-container\" class=\"ez-toc-v2_0_85 counter-hierarchy ez-toc-counter ez-toc-grey ez-toc-container-direction\">\n<div class=\"ez-toc-title-container\">\n<p class=\"ez-toc-title\" style=\"cursor:inherit\">Table of Contents<\/p>\n<span class=\"ez-toc-title-toggle\"><a href=\"#\" class=\"ez-toc-pull-right ez-toc-btn ez-toc-btn-xs ez-toc-btn-default ez-toc-toggle\" aria-label=\"Toggle Table of Content\"><span class=\"ez-toc-js-icon-con\"><span class=\"\"><span class=\"eztoc-hide\" style=\"display:none;\">Toggle<\/span><span class=\"ez-toc-icon-toggle-span\"><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" class=\"list-377408\" width=\"20px\" height=\"20px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\"><path d=\"M6 6H4v2h2V6zm14 0H8v2h12V6zM4 11h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2zM4 16h2v2H4v-2zm16 0H8v2h12v-2z\" fill=\"currentColor\"><\/path><\/svg><svg style=\"fill: #999;color:#999\" class=\"arrow-unsorted-368013\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\" width=\"10px\" height=\"10px\" viewBox=\"0 0 24 24\" version=\"1.2\" baseProfile=\"tiny\"><path d=\"M18.2 9.3l-6.2-6.3-6.2 6.3c-.2.2-.3.4-.3.7s.1.5.3.7c.2.2.4.3.7.3h11c.3 0 .5-.1.7-.3.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7zM5.8 14.7l6.2 6.3 6.2-6.3c.2-.2.3-.5.3-.7s-.1-.5-.3-.7c-.2-.2-.4-.3-.7-.3h-11c-.3 0-.5.1-.7.3-.2.2-.3.5-.3.7s.1.5.3.7z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/span><\/span><\/a><\/span><\/div>\n<nav><ul class='ez-toc-list ez-toc-list-level-1 ' ><li class='ez-toc-page-1 ez-toc-heading-level-2'><a class=\"ez-toc-link ez-toc-heading-1\" href=\"https:\/\/www.ruloans.com\/blog\/used-car-loan-interest-rates-in-india-complete-guide\/#What_Are_the_Different_Factors_Determining_the_Interest_Rate_of_Loans\" >What Are the Different Factors Determining the Interest Rate of Loans?<\/a><\/li><\/ul><\/nav><\/div>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Are_the_Different_Factors_Determining_the_Interest_Rate_of_Loans\"><\/span><strong>What Are the Different Factors Determining the Interest Rate of Loans?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Lenders constitute different interest rate slabs for used car loans depending on the following factors:<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>1. Credit Score<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A credit score is an important factor that can determine the interest rate of your used car loan is your credit score. A healthy credit score indicates that there is no risk of lending you money since your record shows you have been making timely payments as per your score. To have a lower rate of interest on a <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ruloans.com\/car-loan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">car loan<\/a><\/strong>, it&#8217;s suggested to maintain a good credit score.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2. Relationship With The Lender<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s important to maintain a good relationship with your lender in terms of transactions as well as payments. Since they might notify if they are offering used car loans at a cheaper rate of interest. Therefore, before approaching any other lender for a used car loan, make sure to consult your existing lender.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3.\u00a0Repayment Tenure<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The tenure of your used car loan will have a great impact on your rate of interest. The individuals opting for a longer tenure, their EMIs would be comparatively lower but they are entitled to pay a high rate of interest throughout the loan tenure. On the other hand, EMIs are higher but the interest rate is low in shorter tenure.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>4. Amount Of Loan<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The amount taken for a used car loan affects the rate of interest charged on the car loan. Opting for a higher amount of loan might provide you with a lower rate of interest and vice versa. This varies from one lender to the other.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>5. Income <\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The individuals having income on the higher side might enjoy the advantages of a low-interest rate since a high amount of income indicates a good capacity to repay your debt.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>6. Age &amp; Model Of The Car<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With a used car loan, the vehicle serves as security for the duration of the loan. If a borrower defaults on a loan, the bank will keep the vehicle to cover the outstanding debt. As a result, while deciding the interest rate, banks consider the car&#8217;s age and model. Remember that newer cars from reputable manufacturers have a higher resale value than older models. The interest rate for used or pre-owned car loans is higher than on new car loans. This is due to the fact that antique cars deteriorate with time and use.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Where Can I Get The Best Deal On Used Car Loan?<\/strong><\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Ruloans is the place to go if you want to own the car of your dreams.
