Comparing two purchases? Use the new vs used car calculator for a shared holding-period comparison of depreciation, financing and operating costs, rather than treating a current value estimate as a buying recommendation.
How it works
Estimate an auto loan payment including price, tax, fees, cash incentives, down payment, trade-in, amount owed on trade-in, and whether taxes and fees are financed. Use the units shown in the calculator and review every assumption before using the result.
Formula
Loan amount = auto price - cash incentives - down payment - trade-in value + amount owed on trade-in, plus taxes and fees when included in the loan. Payment uses monthly amortization.

Important assumptions
This tool is designed for planning and comparison. Real-world prices, manufacturer ratings, building requirements, lender terms, electrical codes, tolerances, and product specifications can vary.
For two mutually exclusive incentive offers on the same car, compare the total purchase cost with the cash back or low interest calculator, rather than comparing monthly payments alone.

Are the results exact?
The math is deterministic for the entered values, but the result depends on inputs and assumptions. Verify safety-critical, financial, code-related, towing, fitment, and manufacturer-specific decisions with authoritative information.
