A car is often a necessity, but bad credit can make the purchase process stressful and expensive. High interest rates (potentially around 21%-25%) add thousands to the cost of ownership. However, the right strategies and finding a trustworthy dealership can change everything. That's where Investaral comes in - we help improve your credit AND connect you with reputable car dealers.
The Cost of Bad Credit on Car Loans
Sky-High Interest Rates: With bad credit, lenders see you as a higher risk. This means interest rates could reach 21%, 25%, or higher on your car loan.
Example: On a $20,000 car loan over 60 months, a 5% interest rate (good credit) vs. a 21% rate (bad credit) leads to thousands of dollars in extra interest paid.
Limited Choices: High rates restrict loan amounts, potentially forcing you into a less desirable vehicle.
