Car Affordability by Credit Score
How much car can I afford with a 760 credit score?
A 760 score puts you in the Prime tier, where new-car APRs average around 7.0%. At that rate, on a typical $60k income you could comfortably target a $20,742–$27,656 car. Your rate is the biggest lever — improving your score even one tier can save thousands.
