Car payment on a $30,000 car

Answer
On a $30,000 car with 10% down, the financed amount is $27,000. At 7% APR over 60 months, the payment is about $535/month.

Assumptions

  • $30,000 vehicle price
  • 10% down payment ($3,000)
  • $27,000 loan amount
  • 7% APR, 60 months
  • Excludes tax, title, registration, and insurance

Calculation

Loan = $30,000 − $3,000 = $27,000
P = 27,000 · r = 7%/12 · n = 60
Monthly ≈ $534.64

Frequently asked

What about tax and fees?

Sales tax, title, and registration are typically added on top — sometimes rolled into the loan, raising the payment.

What if I put 20% down?

A bigger down payment shrinks the loan and the monthly cost. Try the Car Payment Calculator with your actual numbers.
