No assets needed
NAB Personal Loans are unsecured, so your car won’t be used as collateral, unlike secured car loans.
-
Looking for a car loan to finance your new car? If you don’t want to provide your car as collateral or want the flexibility of deciding between a new or used car, a NAB Personal Loan can help get you on the road sooner.
The best bits?
- Avoiding dealer finance might help you save on extra fees, commissions, or high-interest rates.
- As long as the primary loan purpose is the purchase of the car, you can use any remaining funds for other purchases.
- You’ll own the car straight away because an unsecured loan doesn’t use your car as collateral.
-
Unlike a secured loan, with an unsecured personal loan, you won’t need to provide collateral (such as your car) to borrow money. Our personal loans are all unsecured loans.
Unsecured loans generally come with a higher interest rate than secured loans because of a higher risk to the lender. The interest rate you’re offered will be personalised. So, if you have an excellent credit history, you may be offered a rate at the lower end of our range.

Our interest rates explained
Understanding the different types of interest rates will help you make an informed choice.
-
A fixed rate stays the same for the life of the loan, so your loan repayments will also stay the same.
A variable rate can go either up or down over the life of the loan – this means your minimum repayment may change. A variable rate loan also gives you access to a redraw facility, so if you need money unexpectedly you can redraw extra funds you’ve paid.
-
A comparison rate is used to help you identify the true cost of the loan, including the interest and some fees and charges. This makes it easier to compare the overall cost of different loans.
When you read comparison rates, take note of the loan amount and term that they are based on. These affect the comparison rate and you want to be comparing apples with apples.
