Getting an Audi car loan is straightforward. Like most car brands, Audi offers in-house financing options that can be organised at the time of the car purchase.

However, Audi car finance, though convenient for the buyer, may have higher interest rates and fees than other lenders on the market.

It is always worth shopping around before settling on an Audi car financing option:

• Speak to a broker
• Use a comparison website
• Go direct-to-lender

Remember that loan rejections can negatively affect your credit score, so always make sure you meet the application criteria before submitting a loan application.

Car loans are often secured loans; this means that defaulting on your loan repayments could result in the lender seizing your car as payment.  

Unsecured loans for car finance are also available, but they tend to have higher rates and fees than secured loans, due to the greater risk to the lender.
