Symbol for percentage, with a dotted line running through it, with scissors and the words 'cut here'.

MOVE Bank is the latest lender to offer sub 7% rates on secured car loans for new vehicles. 

MOVE’s new fixed-rate, 3-year comparison rate of 6.72% p.a. (down from 7.26% p.a.), based on a $30,000 loan, definitely positions it as a more competitive choice in the market. 

It’s also a rate that’s noticeably below the average interest rate for new car loans of 7.36% p.a., as per the Mozo database

However, there are still seven lenders with comparison rates lower than MOVE Bank, not including exclusive offerings like ‘green car loans’ and loans designed for customers with excellent credit.
