Buying\na car is a dream come true for many. Used cars are an affordable alternative\nfor budget buyers, especially with a used car loan. In fact, this may be the\nbest time to buy a used car, thanks to the recent doubling of depreciation on\ncars bought before April 1, 2020. Industry watchers say that this will spark\nincreased selling of cars by owners to get a good resale price. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Know More About Used Car Loan<\/a><\/div>\n\n\n\n

However,\ninterest rates on a second hand car loan can vary widely depending on the\nage and physical condition of the car you choose to buy. You will need to put\nin some amount of research to decide on the right one for your needs. Being a\nsecured loan, a car loan does involve collateral – the vehicle itself! However,\ncould it be used to finance your purchase?
\n
\nThe short answer: Yes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Let\u2019s\ntake a look at some of the factors involved:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lender retains title<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The basic principle behind a collateral-based loan is that the lender is legally entitled to take over the pledged asset if the borrower is unable to repay the loan. In fact, the title remains with the bank you choose to get the loan from.

Terms and conditions
<\/strong>
Consumers in most western countries can readily get a loan on used car by leveraging it as collateral. In India, most major banks and auto finance companies offer this type of loan, subject to certain terms and conditions. If you have an existing auto loan with a certain lender and need a top-up, you may be able to offer the used car as collateral. However, some banks do offer used car loans on third party auto loans as well. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For specific information, you can contact a dealer or auto finance provider.

How it works <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"Car<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Based on the current market price of the car, the loan provider will offer you a quote. Compare quotes from different providers to get the best possible offer for your needs. The loan process starts with a valuation performed by a representative of the bank or financial institution. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nvaluer\u2019s job is to determine a fair price based on the car\u2019s physical condition\nsuch as engine, transmission and mileage. Depending on the age of the vehicle,\ndepreciation is calculated that is used by the auto loan company to make you an\noffer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The\nloan amount depends on its current market value, various terms and conditions\nand the overall risk profile. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Legal obligations 
<\/strong>
Once your application for a loan on used car is approved, the lender becomes the holder of the title, which is also updated on the Registration Certificate (RC). This means that it cannot be sold to a third party until the loan is paid off in full.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is the interest rate lower? 
<\/strong>
