Business ute loan

Can I finance new and used utes?

Yes, a ute loan lets you finance both new and used vehicles. Remember to weigh in the pros and cons of each option. For example, financing a new ute often comes with better terms, like lower interest rates, but is overall pricier. On the other hand, used utes require a lower principal loan amount but may come with stricter loan terms.

Can I include modifications or accessories in the ute loan?

Business ute loans often cover essential business-related modifications and accessories, like tool drawers, roof racks, and tow bars. Always check your loan agreement to confirm what applies in your case.

Can I upgrade or trade in my ute before the loan ends?

Yes, it's possible to upgrade or trade in vehicles mid-loan, including utes. However, early payout fees may apply, and you often have to settle the remaining balance of your loan before you can upgrade.

How much deposit do I need for a business ute loan?

You don't always need a deposit for a business ute loan, but contributing 10-20% can help reduce your loan amount and total interest. Factors like your business's financial health, credit history, and loan amount will determine whether or not a deposit is required.

Are there any restrictions on how I use the ute?

Financed utes need to be used primarily for business purposes. This is generally more than 50% of the time, according to the ATO. Some loans may also have conditions on things like off-road driving, towing, or modifications, so check your agreement to make sure it suits your operations.
