1. What is the RBC Car Loan Calculator?

The RBC Car Loan Calculator helps you estimate your monthly payments for a car loan from Royal Bank of Canada. It uses the standard loan payment formula to calculate your payment based on loan amount, interest rate, and term.

2. How Does the Calculator Work?

The calculator uses the standard loan payment formula:

\[ PMT = P \times \frac{r(1 + r)^n}{(1 + r)^n - 1} \]

Where:

\( PMT \) — Monthly payment (CAD)
\( P \) — Principal loan amount (CAD)
\( r \) — Monthly interest rate (annual rate ÷ 12)
\( n \) — Number of monthly payments (term in months)

Explanation: The formula accounts for both principal repayment and interest charges over the loan term.
