A car loan is a type of personal loan specifically used to finance the purchase of a vehicle. It allows you to borrow money from a lender and repay it over time with added interest.

When you take out a car loan, the lender provides you with funds to purchase a vehicle. You then repay the loan amount, plus interest, in monthly installments over an agreed-upon term.

Eligibility criteria vary among lenders but typically include factors such as credit score, income stability, employment history, and age.

A secured car loan requires collateral (usually the vehicle itself), while an unsecured car loan does not. Secured loans often have lower interest rates due to reduced risk for the lender.

Typical documents include proof of identity (ID), proof of income (pay stubs or tax returns), employment verification, and information about the vehicle being purchased.
