What\u2019s next?<\/h3><p>It depends on why you used this calculator. If you wanted to know your car loan monthly payment based on an offer from a lender, you might want to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/car-loans\/pre-approved-car-loan\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">pre-qualify with a few more lenders<\/a> to find out if you can get a better deal.<\/p><p>If you\u2019re trying to figure out how much you can afford to borrow, use the loan amount, term and interest rate as a guide for finding a car and a corresponding loan that you can afford. Some lenders require that you have a car picked out before you apply. Even if they don\u2019t, it doesn\u2019t hurt to visit a few dealerships to compare your options.<\/p><p>After you\u2019ve found a car that you like, research lenders that are willing to finance the particular car you\u2019re interested in buying \u2014 some have restrictions on models, makes and mileage if you\u2019re getting a used car. You can get started by <a class=\"scroll\" href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/car-loans\">using our comparison table<\/a>. Once you\u2019ve found a lender you like, follow their specific directions for applying for an auto loan.<\/p><h3>Other costs to keep in mind<\/h3><ul class=\"list-7\"><li><strong>Down payment.<\/strong> Typically car loans come with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.finder.com\/ca\/car-loans\/buying-a-car\/how-much-should-my-car-down-payment-be\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">down payment of around 20%<\/a> of the vehicle\u2019s value.<\/li><li><strong>Taxes.<\/strong> Make sure you\u2019re including the sales tax (GST\/HST) in your loan amount when calculating the monthly repayments.<\/li><li><strong>Insurance premiums.<\/strong> On top of car loan payments, you\u2019ll have to pay for insurance. Your insurance payment will be determined based on where you live, your gender, your age, what type of car you drive, your driving history and other factors. In Canada, auto insurance fees usually cost between $700 \u2013 $3,000 per year. Ontario generally has the most expensive auto insurance due to the number of accidents that occur there. Drivers under the age of 25 will be charged a higher rate in any province. <\/li><\/ul><h3>Bottom line<\/h3><p>Using car loan payment calculator can help you understand what kind of car is in your budget. After all, your monthly payment is the immediate cost you\u2019ll have to deal with on a regular basis. If you can\u2019t afford the monthly payments on a loan for a particular car, then you probably can\u2019t afford that car.<\/p><p>Keep in mind that you might only be able to get a loan worth 80% of your car\u2019s value. This means that you might be required to pay the other 20% upfront. Paying some money upfront can actually be a good thing because your entire payment goes directly to reducing the principal amount owing on the car. Any part of the purchase price covered by the loan is subject to interest, which will eat away at the regular payments you make.<\/p><h3>Frequently asked questions<\/h3><ul class=\"luna-accordionGroup accordionGroup\">\n\t<li class=\"luna-accordion\" data-accordion=\"accordion\">\n    <div class=\"luna-accordion__summary\">\n        <h4 class=\"luna-accordion__heading\">\n            <button class=\"luna-accordion__action collapsed\" aria-expanded=\"false\" aria-controls=\"faq-builder-0000000001\" data-toggle=\"collapse\" data-target=\"#faq-builder-0000000001\">\n                <span class=\"luna-accordion__title\">Is $400 a lot for a car payment?<\/span>\n                <svg class=\"luna-icon\" aria-hidden=\"true\">\n                    <use xlink:href=\"#chevron-down\" data-accordion-icon=\"show\"><\/use>\n                    <use xlink:href=\"#chevron-up\" data-accordion-icon=\"hide\" class=\"is-hidden\"><\/use>\n                <\/svg>\n            <\/button>\n        <\/h4>\n    <\/div>\n    <div class=\"luna-accordion__details collapse\" aria-hidden=\"true\" id=\"faq-builder-0000000001\" data-accordion=\"details\">\n        <div class=\"accordionContent\">\n            <div>\n                <p>This depends on your monthly income and debts.
