Driving savings
With the cost of fuel rising, more Australians are considering the potential savings of driving a hybrid or electric car. Our Green Car Loan rewards you with a lower interest rate than our standard car loan to say thanks for making a greener choice. In fact, the interest saving could contribute to the cost of purchasing the car.
Depending on the cost of the vehicle, you may be eligible to borrow more to cover the cost of a charging station or power wall.
