About the Car Loan EMI Calculator

Car loans are usually shorter than home loans, so the EMI is higher for the same amount. A larger down payment reduces both the EMI and the interest.

Enter the loan amount, rate and tenure to see your EMI and total interest.

Formula used

EMI = P × r × (1 + r)^n / ((1 + r)^n − 1), where r = annual rate ÷ 12 ÷ 100 and n = months.

Frequently asked questions

What tenure is best for a car loan?

Four to five years is common. Longer tenures cost more in interest, and a car loses value quickly.

Is the loan amount the same as the car price?

No. Subtract your down payment, and remember insurance, registration and accessories.

Can I prepay a car loan?

Usually yes, but some lenders charge a fee. Ask before you sign.
