How it is calculated
Financed amount = car price − down payment. The instalment uses the standard loan formula at a declining rate, charged each month on what is still owed. The calculator shows the instalment, the total interest and everything you pay including the down payment and fees.
Income limit: Central Bank of Egypt rules (December 2019) cap all consumer-loan instalments, including a car loan, at 50% of your monthly income, together with any other instalments you pay.
Down payment and term: there is no single minimum down payment set by the Central Bank. Some banks advertise up to 100% financing and terms up to 10 years in some programmes (often with salary transfer); others ask for 20% to 50% down and up to 7 years. Also ask about car insurance, life insurance and early-repayment fees.
If the offer says “flat rate”, its real (declining) rate is much higher: use the loan and instalment calculator (Arabic) to convert it.
