Axis Bank Used Car Loan — Interest Rates, Eligibility & EMI (October 2026)

Reviewed by Arjun Mehta, Head of Credit & Lending Partnerships (CFA, 12+ yrs Auto Finance, Nxcar Lending Desk)
Last updated:

Axis Bank offers the lowest accessible starting rate among Nxcar's 27 lending partners at 10.00% a year, and unlike ICICI Bank's 10.00% tier, Axis does not restrict that floor to luxury or premium cars. Instead, Axis prices strictly by loan ticket size: loans under ₹6 lakh start at 11.05%, loans between ₹6 lakh and ₹10 lakh drop to 10.30%, and any eligible loan of ₹10 lakh or more unlocks the 10.00% starting rate.What sets Axis Bank apart is how aggressively its upper ceiling falls on larger loans. At ₹20 lakh and above, Axis caps its partner band at 12.80%, meaning even a borrower who does not get the very bottom rate still pays less than the starting rate of most NBFCs. However, for smaller loans under ₹6 lakh, HDFC Bank's 10.76% starting rate beats Axis's 11.05%.Across Nxcar applications in 2026, Axis Bank is the top choice for salaried buyers financing compact SUVs and mid-size sedans between ₹7 lakh and ₹18 lakh with a CIBIL score of 750 or higher.
