Estimate your monthly car loan installment (EMI).
Indicative estimate. Actual terms vary by bank.
New car, used car, Islamic ya conventional — Pakistan mein auto finance ek hi arithmetic par chalta hai: reducing-balance EMI. This general auto finance calculator is the bank-agnostic version of our 9 bank-specific tools: set any car price, down payment, rate, and tenure, and get the honest monthly number plus the lifetime total. Use it to compare quotes side by side, or when your bank isn’t one of the nine listed.

The Reducing-Balance Formula (Every Bank Uses It)
EMI = P × r × (1+r)ⁿ ÷ ((1+r)ⁿ − 1), where P = financed amount (price − down payment), r = monthly rate (annual ÷ 12), n = months.
- Interest/ijarah rental is charged only on the remaining balance — that’s why early EMIs are mostly markup and later EMIs are mostly principal.
- Flat-rate quotes (rare now) look cheaper but aren’t comparable — always convert to reducing-balance effective rates.
How to Use
- Enter the vehicle price.
- Set down payment % (20–30% typical; used cars higher).
- Enter the rate your bank quoted (editable).
- Set tenure and Calculate — monthly instalment, total instalments, and all-in cost.
Example
Rs 4,000,000 used car, 30% down (Rs 1,200,000), Rs 2,800,000 financed for 4 years at 18%: monthly ≈ Rs 81,900; total ≈ Rs 3.93 million — nearly Rs 1.13 million in markup. Used-car financing costs more because rates and down payments are stiffer.
Smart Borrowing Rules
- Keep the EMI under ~30% of take-home pay — cars have running costs on top (fuel, insurance, maintenance).
- Shortest comfortable tenure beats the lowest monthly payment.
- Get 3 written quotes; the “processing fee,” “tracker,” and insurance lines differ more than the headline rates.
- Run new-vs-used: a 2-year-old car’s price drop often beats the higher used-car rate.
Frequently Asked Questions
Flat rate vs reducing balance — which is better?
Reducing balance is the standard and the honest comparison basis. A “flat 10%” is roughly equivalent to ~18% reducing balance — always compare on reducing terms.
New vs used car finance — what’s different?
Used cars: higher down payment, shorter max tenure, sometimes higher rates, and age limits. The calculator handles both — set your actual quote’s numbers.
Should I finance or save and buy cash?
If the loan rate exceeds what your savings earn, cash wins — but in Pakistan, car prices often rise faster than savings grow. Model both with the calculator.
What about the insurance and tracker?
Mandatory on financed cars; budget them on top of the EMI — our totals include what you enter.
