Key features of a vehicle loan:
- Loan amount: The amount you can borrow depends on the value of the vehicle you want to purchase.
- Interest rate: The interest rate charged on a vehicle loan can vary depending on the lender, the type of vehicle, and your creditworthiness.
- Loan tenure: The loan tenure can range from a few months to several years, depending on the lender's policy and your repayment capacity.
- Repayment terms: You can choose to repay the loan in equal monthly installments (EMIs) or through other repayment schedules.
- Processing fees: The lender may charge processing fees to cover the costs of processing your loan application.
- Prepayment charges: Some lenders may impose prepayment charges if you repay the loan before the end of the agreed-upon tenure.
- Collateral: Vehicle loans are typically secured by the vehicle itself, meaning the lender has the right to repossess the vehicle if you fail to repay the loan.
