This auto loan calculator helps you estimate the effect of additional monthly payments on your loan balance and the total interest you will pay.

Why Extra Payments Matter

Making additional payments on your auto loan can reduce the amount of interest you pay over the life of the loan, and shorten the time it takes to pay off your loan.

Example Calculation

For a loan of $25,000 at 5% interest for 60 months, with an extra payment of $100 each month, your new monthly payment would be $500, saving you over $2,000 in interest and reducing your loan term by 6 months.

Smart Strategy

Make extra payments if you can afford it. This will help you pay off your loan faster and save money on interest.

FAQs

Can I make extra payments at any time? Yes, extra payments can typically be made anytime without penalty.

Does making extra payments affect my credit? As long as you continue making regular payments, extra payments can help improve your credit score by reducing your outstanding balance.
