A used vehicle in good condition will save you thousands, but it can still require some upfront financing. A used auto loan is the perfect way to finance your purchase since you’ll (generally) have shorter terms than new car loans can provide you.
Some of the advantages of OUCU used auto loans include:
- Occasionally lower rates than new car loans
- Shorter terms, meaning you’ll pay your loan off sooner
- Lower monthly payments due to an overall smaller loan amount
- Friendly, individualized service from our representatives

Used Auto Loan Rates
OUCU used auto loans range between 6.75% and 7.00% for vehicles between three and five years old, depending on the term of the loan. Typically, these loans last between 12 and 72 months, with longer terms requiring higher rates.
OUCU used auto loan rates are typically lower than what you’ll find at many other institutions!
It’s worth noting that loans for older cars tend to have significantly higher rates, but at OUCU, you’re still likely to have lower interest rates than you’d get with a traditional bank.

Beginning the process of receiving a loan is simple, and requires three short steps to complete.
Step 1. Consideration
- Apply for your Auto Loan Consideration Online or by phone at (740) 597-2800
- Indicate your total vehicle budget on your application sheet.
- There is no need to choose a vehicle yet. Pre-approval will last for a significant number of days, allowing you to find an adequate price point for your new car.
Step 2. Confirmation
- Get a quick answer from a bank officer within one or two business days after submitting your completed application.
- Once you are approved by OUCU as the lender, applicants will receive their pre-approval letter electronically or via mail.
- Using the pre-approval letter, shop for the vehicle that fits your lifestyle the best. Having pre-approval from an authorized lender will significantly increase your car purchasing process.
Step 3. Close
- Once you are ready to make a decision, have your car dealer send your local OUCU branch a copy of the purchase agreement.
- If there is no dealer involved, OUCU will help you close with a private seller. For more information about this process, please reach out to our Consumer Loans Department at (740) 597-2800.
- Signing for approval can be done on the go with any device connected to the internet, or in any one of OUCU’s local branches.
