How do I compare my options for Honda finance?
Interest rates
The first port of call when comparing different loans is generally the interest rate. The interest rates you're eligible for will vary depending on your budget and circumstances
Sometimes the rate will be the most important thing when choosing a loan, while sometimes other factors will affect the decision.
Fees
Fees vary widely from lender to lender, and not every lender charges the same types of fees. Some don’t charge setup or admin fees at all. It's worth checking the comparison rate on a loan, which accounts for the most common fees charged.
But also see what occasional fees aren't accounted for in that rate – such as default and dishonour fees (for missed payments and automatic payments with insufficient funds).
Features
Some loans will offer features that others don't, which you might be particularly looking for. One lender might provide funds for a classic car. Others might allow early settlement with no penalty – meaning you can pay the loan off early.
If these are things you're interested in, that might be more important than the interest rate.
Exclusions
Not every lender applies the same conditions to their loans, and some might have exclusions that make them a worse choice for you.
For example, lenders have different caps on the age of vehicle they'll finance. Some will also loan to a driver on their learner's permit, while others require P-plates.
Common Honda finance questions answered
Chattel mortgages are a specialist commercial car finance option, so they’re a great way to buy a Honda if you’re self-employed or run a company. Your car acts as collateral until the agreement is over, so interest rates are pretty low. A lot of the tax and GST benefit with a chattel mortgage happens at the start of the term – because you get to claim back a considerable chunk of GST almost immediately.
- A tax deduction on interest is applicable to the business portion of use.
- You claim all the GST back as soon as you file your next business activity statement – but monthly repayments are GST-free.
- Because you own your Honda from the start of the term, you claim for depreciation.
Yes. One of the most useful features of pre-approval is to be able to go car shopping with a firm idea of your budget – and knowing you're not dependant on finance from the dealer (which might not have the best rates). It's also a key difference between pre-approval and full approval – where the specific car you're buying is included in the loan as collateral.
A trade in effectively acts like a deposit – it means you're contributing the value of your old car towards the car purchase. That amount is then money that you don't need to borrow as part of your loan, and therefore never need to pay interest on – so you save money overall.
You could, but it may cost you more. Personal loans are unsecured, which means they don't require collateral, but they also have significantly higher interest rates than you get with a secured car loan.
Yes. If you're getting a used car and you're looking for something a little more than a standard 3-month statutory warranty (which car dealers are legally required to offer up to a certain car mileage), your loan can be extended to cover an extended warranty. These are generally offered by a third-party company, and function as a type of “breakdown insurance”.
No. With a loan through one of Savvy's range of lenders you can choose to work to a different pay cycle, allowing you to make the car payments on your Honda on a weekly or fortnightly basis if that suits you better.
Yes, you can. Although you are required to get full comprehensive insurance on a car you buy with finance, most lenders give you the flexibility to choose your own insurer.
