In the wake of rising car prices and the surge in COE premiums, demand for used cars has declined by up to 15% since the beginning of 2022, as evidenced by Sgcarmart's transaction data. This has led to a build up of used car dealer inventory.

Sgcarmart's Smart Loan aims to benefit both dealers and buyers, by boosting inventory turnover through the provision of attractive interest rates and lower monthly repayments. As a launch promotion, buyers can enjoy incredible savings on monthly repayments with an interest rate 2.28%^ plus $1,700 worth of perks, including a $500 cashback and an exclusive KINTO membership program.

"Buying a used car has become tough to finance with COE premiums being as they are now. The introduction of the new Sgcarmart Smart Loan service is a two-pronged approach aimed at providing greater support to dealers and also enhancing value for our users." Mr Vinod Cherumadathil – Managing Director & CEO of Sgcarmart.

Sgcarmart Smart Loan is a revolutionary car-financing initiative that ensures a seamless buying experience offering below-market interest rates, fast and actual approval, with exceptional customer service. Used car buyers can also compare their total savings if they take a car loan with Sgcarmart against other financial institutions with the online savings calculator.
