What’s The Average Car Payment In Minnesota? It’s Higher Than You Think

What's your car payment? Or are you lucky enough not to have one? The price of cars has been increasing as more technology is being integrated into them. Also, the pandemic and supply chain disruptions have driven prices of used vehicles to record highs in recent years.

New car sales also are seeing increases, especially with the federal interest rate being hiked up to 5.25. This was done by the government to curb out-of-control inflation. The higher the interest rate means the more money you'll be paying out monthly for your vehicle. The statistics come from Simply Insurance.
