Common questions
What others asks before signing up?
How much are repayments on a $40,000 car loan in Australia?
At a typical secured rate of 7.5% p.a. over 5 years, repayments on a $40,000 car loan are roughly $802 per month. Over 7 years the monthly drops to around $612 but total interest increases significantly. This calculator gives you an instant estimate — your broker confirms the final figures after reviewing your circumstances.
How accurate is this car loan repayment calculator?
It uses the standard Australian principal-and-interest amortisation formula with optional balloon payment adjustment, so the repayment figure is accurate for the numbers you enter. It is a price indication only — your actual rate, fees and eligibility are confirmed by your broker and lender.
What is the difference between a car loan and a chattel mortgage?
A secured car loan is for personal use — the vehicle is held as security. A chattel mortgage is for business use (ABN required) — the buyer owns the vehicle from day one and can claim GST credits, interest and depreciation as tax deductions. Chattel mortgage rates are typically 5–8% p.a.
How does a balloon payment affect my repayments?
A balloon payment is a lump sum due at the end of the loan. It lowers monthly repayments because you are financing less each month, but you pay more total interest over the life of the loan. Typical balloon amounts are 10–30% of the vehicle price. For a $40,000 car with a 30% balloon, monthly repayments drop by roughly $160 but total interest increases by around $2,500.
Can I add this calculator to my own website?
Yes — embed it on WordPress, Webflow, Squarespace, Wix or Shopify with one snippet, or use the free hosted page if you don't have a site.
What do I get when a car buyer uses my calculator?
A full lead: their name, phone, email, vehicle price, finance type, term and the estimate they saw — plus a branded PDF copy in your inbox, ready to follow up.
What is a novated lease and how is it different?
A novated lease is salary sacrifice car finance arranged through your employer. Repayments come from pre-tax income, reducing your taxable salary. Running costs (fuel, rego, servicing) can also be salary-sacrificed. Eligible electric vehicles may be FBT-exempt. It is structurally different from a car loan — your broker confirms the exact tax benefit based on your salary and vehicle.
Is Leadkit really free?
Yes. Free lets you add up to 3 calculators to your website and receive 10 leads per month — no credit card. Every lead beyond the cap is still captured and held for you; upgrading to Pro ($29/mo) opens them all retroactively and removes the cap.
Do I need to know how to code?
No. You get an embed code (one line of HTML). Paste it into your website builder — Wix, Squarespace, WordPress, or any custom site. That's it.
How accurate are the price estimates?
You configure the calculator formulas to match your actual pricing. Leadkit provides the framework; you set the numbers. Estimates can be as detailed or as rough as you like.
What happens with lead data?
All lead data is stored securely in your workspace. You own it. We never sell or share your leads with anyone.
Can I use Leadkit as an agency for multiple clients?
Yes — our Agency plan lets you create and manage separate workspaces for each of your clients, all from one dashboard.
What's the difference between the plans?
Free: up to 3 calculators, 10 leads/month (over-cap leads held + locked until upgrade). Pro: unlimited leads, unlimited calculators, white-label, branded email sending, analytics, email templates. Agency: everything in Pro plus multi-workspace management.

How it works
How this car loan repayment estimate is calculated
Each estimate uses the standard Australian principal-and-interest amortisation formula adapted for car finance terms (1–7 years) and rates (4–15% p.a.), with optional balloon payment adjustment. It produces an estimate, not a binding quote — your broker confirms the final figures.
GST handling: Car loan repayments are not subject to GST. Chattel mortgage buyers may be able to claim GST credits on the vehicle purchase — consult your accountant. Novated lease GST is handled by the finance provider.
1
Calculate the net loan amount
The vehicle price minus any deposit and trade-in value gives the amount to be financed. A larger deposit or trade-in reduces your repayments and total interest.
2
Apply the amortisation formula
Monthly repayment is calculated from the financed amount, the monthly interest rate and the number of months in the term using standard principal-and-interest amortisation.
monthly = P × r(1+r)ⁿ ÷ ((1+r)ⁿ − 1)
3
Adjust for balloon or residual
If a balloon payment (car loan) or residual value (novated lease) applies, the present value of that lump sum is subtracted from the principal before amortisation. This lowers monthly repayments but the lump sum is added back to total cost.
effective P = net loan − balloon ÷ (1+r)ⁿ
4
Calculate total cost and interest
Total cost is the monthly repayment multiplied by the number of months, plus any balloon or residual. Total interest is total cost minus the original net loan amount.
Repayments depend on the vehicle price, deposit, finance type, rate and term. These are typical principal-and-interest repayments at common market rates for each finance type.

Car loan rates do not vary by state but differ significantly by credit score, lender and whether the loan is secured. Secured car loans offer the lowest rates (from ~5.5%). Personal loans for cars are typically 2–4% higher. Chattel mortgages and novated leases suit business or salary-sacrifice buyers respectively.
