About this calculator

An auto loan calculator turns the vehicle price, down payment, trade-in, sales tax and interest rate into a monthly car payment and the total interest you pay. Enter your numbers to see the true cost of financing a vehicle.

Frequently asked questions

Is sales tax added to the loan?

Usually yes — tax is charged on the price less any trade-in, then added to the amount financed. Turn on advanced options to include it.

Does a trade-in lower my payment?

Yes. A trade-in reduces both the taxable amount and the amount you need to finance, which lowers the monthly payment.
