FAQs

Who owns the car in financing?

With the Hire Purchase financing option, you become the rightful owner of the vehicle when you have paid all the fixed monthly instalments over the agreed contract period.

With the PCP option, should you wish to become the owner of the vehicle, you would then simply pay the optional balloon payment at the end of the term.

Is the interest rate on a car loan fixed throughout the term?

The interest rate for PCP and individual loans is set at the beginning of the contract term and remains the same over the entire period. Please contact your local retailer for more details on the laws and regulations.

How do I find out my monthly instalment for my dream car?

We suggest first visiting our CUPRA website and configuring your ideal car online. Usually, you will be provided with an estimated monthly repayment amount.

How can I lower the monthly instalment on my car loan?

PCP is a good option for you if you require increased flexibility and lower monthly payments. PCP defers some of the car’s price until the end of the contract. This can bring down the monthly cost compared to other types of finance.

What is balloon finance?

Balloon finance is when the finance agreement defers some of the car’s price until the end of the contract. This can bring down the monthly cost compared to other types of finance.

Can I trade in my current car for the deposit?

As a general rule, you can trade in your current vehicle and use the profit to pay part of the financing for your new vehicle, such as the down payment at the beginning of the contract period. Depending on your down payment amount, you can lower the monthly payments. 

Ask your local CUPRA retailer about this option.

Can I configure my dream car however I want?

What happens if I have an accident with my financed CUPRA?
