Using this Microsoft Excel template, enter the car loan amount, car loan interest rate, and length of car loan in years and then the estimated monthly car payment is automatically calculated based on those three variables.

Georges Excel Car Loan Calculator helps you calculate monthly car payments to help you see if you can afford car loan and monthly car payment and see if the monthly auto payments are within your car budget. No need to try to figure out what the Excel car payment formula is to calculate monthly car payment since all Excel car loan formulas have been already created so that your monthly car payments are automatically calculated when you enter car loan amount, car loan interest rate, and term of car loan.
The Excel car loan formulas using the car loan comparison tool compares two car loans side by side so you can easily see which monthly car payment best fits into your monthly car budget. When comparing the car loans side by side, there is a Excel chart which displays the monthly payment each of auto loan and the difference in amount between the two car loan scenarios. When comparing the two car loans, it will also highlight the car loan with highest payment, the car loan with the lowest interest over the life of the loan, and the auto loan with the shortest length of loan (loan term).
If you are purchasing a new car or purchasing a used car and do not have the cash do pay for the car in full, then financing a car purchase using a car loan is another option. To lower the monthly car payment, you can add a car down payment using cash for part of the price of the car and then finance the balance using a car loan. This is where a car payment calculator can help estimate your car payments and interest costs.
If you plan to finance a car purchase, there are several options to help reduce the monthly car payment:
- You can increase the cash down payment which may require delaying your car purchase to save up more money,
- Find the best interest rate to help lower the interest costs
- Increase the length of the loan. However, increasing the term of the car loan also increases the total interest cost over the life of the car loan.
- Buy a cheaper car that is less expensive but still meets your overall goals for car reliability, car safety and car size.
The car loan calculator allows you to adjust these variables to see the impact on the estimated monthly car payment:
- car loan amount
- interest rate on car loan
- loan term (max of 8 years for this car payment calculator)
You can use this Excel car payment calculator spreadsheet on your desktop computer, laptop computer or mobile device as long has you meet the required system requirements. The car loan payment estimator is delivered as a digital download.
Please note that all amounts calculated using the car payment calculator are only estimates so for example, the Excel template calculates the estimated monthly car payment and the estimated total interest cost based on the information that you enter in. If you apply for a car loan, get approved and then entered into and signed a contract for an actual car loan, you would need to refer to your bank or other lending institution and loan contract for actual payments due, interest rate, and interest costs over life of car loan.
