Financing
Car loan pre-approval
Prequalifying before you shop tells you what you can finance and turns browsing into a decision between cars you can actually buy.
Check your rate with a soft credit checkWhy prequalify first
Shopping without a number is how people fall for a car outside their range. A prequalification sets the ceiling before emotion is involved.
It also separates the two negotiations. With financing settled, the only remaining question is the vehicle.
Autora's prequalification runs a soft credit inquiry, which does not affect your credit score. A hard inquiry happens only later, if you place an order and move forward with final financing approval.
What you need to hand
Gross monthly income, your housing cost, and an estimate of your credit score. Autora's prequalification asks for these directly rather than pulling them silently.
