A vehicle loan — also called an auto loan or car loan — finances a new or used vehicle that you repay in monthly instalments, typically over 3 to 7 years in Nepal. The vehicle itself acts as collateral, which is why a vehicle loan usually carries a lower rate than an unsecured personal loan but a higher rate than a home loan.सवारी कर्जा — अटो वा कार कर्जा पनि भनिन्छ — ले नयाँ वा पुरानो सवारी वित्तपोषण गर्छ जुन तपाईं मासिक किस्तामा तिर्नुहुन्छ, नेपालमा सामान्यतया 3 देखि 7 वर्षमा। सवारी आफैं धितो बन्ने भएकाले सवारी कर्जाको दर धितोरहित व्यक्तिगत कर्जाभन्दा कम तर घर कर्जाभन्दा उच्च हुन्छ।

Vehicle loan rates in Nepal vary between banks and depend on the vehicle type (private car, SUV, two-wheeler, electric vehicle or commercial vehicle), whether it is new or used, the loan-to-value ratio, and the borrower's credit profile. Several banks now offer lower rates specifically for electric vehicles (EVs) under green-financing initiatives backed by NRB and Nepal government policy. The table below ranks every bank publishing a vehicle loan rate, lowest first.नेपालमा सवारी कर्जा दर बैंकपिच्छे फरक हुन्छन् र सवारी प्रकार (निजी कार, SUV, दुई-पाङ्ग्रे, विद्युतीय वा व्यावसायिक), नयाँ वा पुरानो, ऋण-देखि-मूल्य अनुपात, र ऋणीको क्रेडिट प्रोफाइलमा निर्भर हुन्छन्। NRB र नेपाल सरकारको नीतिअन्तर्गत हरित-वित्तपोषण अभियानमा धेरै बैंकले अहिले विद्युतीय सवारी (EV) का लागि कम दर दिन्छन्। तलको तालिकाले सवारी कर्जा दर प्रकाशित गर्ने हरेक बैंकलाई न्यून पहिले क्रमबद्ध गर्छ।

The rate matters for both your monthly EMI and your total interest. On a NPR 30 lakh car loan over 5 years, a 1% difference in the rate changes the monthly EMI by roughly NPR 1,200 and the total interest paid by around NPR 72,000 — which is why comparing rates before you sign is worth the few minutes it takes.दरले तपाईंको मासिक किस्ता र कुल ब्याज दुवैमा महत्त्व राख्छ। रू 30 लाखको कार कर्जामा 5 वर्षमा, दरमा 1% अन्तरले मासिक किस्ता करिब रू 1,200 र कुल ब्याज करिब रू 72,000 फेर्छ — त्यसैले हस्ताक्षर गर्नुअघि दर तुलना गर्न लाग्ने केही मिनेट सार्थक हुन्छ।

How to read the range: banks price floating loans as base rate + a premium. The first figure is the lowest premium the bank publishes, which goes to its strongest borrowers; most people pay somewhere between the two figures. Banks are ranked by the starting rate. "Fixed offer" is a fixed-rate scheme.दायरा कसरी पढ्ने: बैंकले फ्लोटिङ कर्जामा आधार दरमा प्रिमियम थपेर ब्याज तोक्छन्। पहिलो अंक बैंकले प्रकाशित गरेको सबैभन्दा कम प्रिमियम हो, जुन बलियो ग्राहकले पाउँछन्; धेरैजसोले दुई अंकको बीचमा तिर्छन्। बैंकहरू सुरुको दरअनुसार क्रमबद्ध छन्।

Down payment rules: NRB vehicle loan limits

VehicleMaximum loanMinimum down payment
Private car, jeep or van (petrol, diesel or electric)60%40%
Private two-wheeler60%40%
Large electric vehicle for public transport80%20%

Example: a Rs 40 lakh EV needs at least Rs 16 lakh of your own money; the bank can lend up to Rs 24 lakh. Offers advertising "80% finance" apply to public-transport EVs or to hire-purchase deals with different terms, so read them carefully.

EV or petrol: what changes for the loan

The down-payment rule is the same for private EVs and petrol cars, but several banks run green-loan schemes with a lower rate or a smaller service fee for EVs. Because EVs also cost far less to run, the total cost over a 5-year loan is often lower even when the sticker price is higher.

Ask the bank whether its EV rate is a separate product, and try both rates in the EMI calculator above to see the real difference.

Before you sign: a checklist

  1. Compare at least three banks; dealer-arranged finance is not always the cheapest.
  2. Ask for the full cost: service fee, valuation, comprehensive insurance (required while the loan runs) and ownership transfer charges.
  3. Check the tenure. A longer loan lowers the EMI but raises the total interest.
  4. Ask about prepayment if you may clear the loan early.
  5. Remember the blue book: the bank is recorded as the financier until you repay, and you need its release letter to sell the vehicle.
