Methodology: For this study, GOBankingRates analyzed each U.S. State to find the average auto loan rates. Using Edmunds.com’s APR Car Loan Rates from August 2024, the auto loan rates were found for SUVs, trucks, electric cars and sedans, and state averages for used and new cars for each state. The average total cost for an auto loan can be calculated using the average used car and new car price sourced from Kelley Blue Book, assuming a 20% downpayment, and using five years for the loan term. The monthly and total auto loan costs can both be calculated for all the states and car types. Using these filters the total cost for an auto loan can be calculated for each state and with different car types. All data was collected on and is up to date as of Sept. 5, 2024.
