More Tesla car loans questions
Which Tesla models can I buy with a car loan?
There’s a variety of Tesla models available on the market right now in Australia, all of which you’ll be able to purchase with a car loan through one of Savvy’s diverse and reputable lenders. The models you can purchase in Australia right now are the following:
- Tesla Model 3: the most affordable model available in Australia currently, the Model 3 is a sedan available in Rear-Wheel Drive, Long Range and Performance models.
- Tesla Model Y: this medium SUV is also available in Rear-Wheel Drive and Performance variants and is also amongst Tesla’s more affordably priced models.
- Tesla Model S: the four-door coupe Model S is capable of travelling as far as 637km per recharge and is amongst Tesla’s flagship models.
- Tesla Model X: another Tesla SUV model, the Model X is considered to be more premium than the Model Y, which is reflected in its pricing.
On top of these models, Tesla’s high-powered sports car, the Roadster, is set to be made available for purchase in Australia but is only currently open to reservations. It’s expected to arrive on our shores in 2023. The controversial Cybertruck pick-up model isn’t available in Australia either but is unlikely to be released outside of North America at this stage.
Should I take out a green car loan to buy my Tesla?
A green car loan is one of the best car loans for purchasing a Tesla or any other electric, hybrid or otherwise environmentally friendly vehicle. This product is no different from standard car loans in terms of its structure but comes with a valuable interest rate discount, which can reach up to 0.7% p.a. Over the life of your finance agreement, this could amount to a significant saving of hundreds of dollars, if not upwards of $1,000. Take the following example:
You’re looking for a loan to help you purchase a Tesla Model Y for $80,000. One lender offers a seven-year loan at 6.5% p.a., which would cost you $19,788.21 in interest overall. However, by taking up their green car loan option, which comes with a 0.7% p.a. discount, you’d save over $2,200 across your term.
