Credit Union SA’s Car Loan ranks among Australia’s best value personal loans.

Our Special Fixed Rate Car Loan was awarded the Mozo Experts Choice Award for the fourth year in a row.

Choose from a fixed rate or variable

Both types of rates provide a choice of flexible loan terms and repayment options, have no monthly loan or account keeping fees, and no penalties for early repayment. But there are some factors that might sway you towards one or the other.

If you have a vehicle to use as security, a fixed rate personal loan provides budgeting certainty for a full seven years. So, it’s a great choice if you’re looking for budgeting certainty.

Alternatively, a variable rate may be a better choice if you don’t want to lock in your interest rate or don’t have a vehicle to use as security.
