Your Acura interest rates depend on multiple factors, some of which you can control and others based on vehicle conditions. Elements like your credit score and history, financing term lengths, and what type of car you’re looking at all impact your interest rates. Specific rates can often fluctuate depending on your exact terms, but Priority Acura has laid out the key factors below. Credit History The biggest factor determining your interest payments is your credit score and history. Lenders are more willing to offer lower rates if you have a long history of prompt payments across your loans and credit cards. We work with drivers who have both good and bad credit or who haven’t developed enough credit history, but your interest rates may be higher if you’re in the latter categories. Vehicle Type You can finance both new and pre-owned Acura models, and which option you choose can also influence your interest rate. When financing similar cars for the same period of time, interest payments will tend lower for new cars versus used ones, as lenders view pre-owned cars as riskier due to their use and wear. Luxury models and sports cars also typically have higher interest rates since they cost more to repair. Loan Term Lengths If you’re looking to reduce your interest rates, you should look for shorter terms, around three to four years in length. Your immediate payments will be higher, but rates will often be lower and you won’t pay as much interest over time. Longer loans require smaller monthly payments but boost interest rates significantly as a tradeoff.
