Latin American Banks Drive EV Adoption with Attractive Financing Options
In a push towards sustainable mobility, several Latin American banks are offering attractive financing options for electric vehicles (EVs). Yahoo Finance reports that Santander Argentina has introduced preferential loans for EV purchases, while other banks like Banco Nación and Banco Estado provide similar facilities.
Santander Argentina is leading the way with loans for EV purchases, offering Annual Percentage Rates (APRs) ranging from 55% to 75% depending on the term. Meanwhile, Banco Nación, a major US bank, facilitates access to electric micromobility units through 18 fixed installments.
In Colombia, Banco de Occidente offers the 'Occiauto Planeta Azul Credit' line with 100% vehicle financing and up to 84 months. Similarly, Banco de Bogotá finances up to 110% of the acquisition of hybrid and electric vehicles for up to 84 months. BBVA Colombia also finances up to 100% of the acquisition of hybrid or electric vehicles for the same duration.
Banco Pan in Brazil finances 100% of the amount of an electric vehicle with payments starting after 90 days. Banco BV in Brazil goes a step further by offsetting 100% of the CO2 emissions from financed vehicles and allowing various financing options for new or used cars, motorcycles, buses, or trucks.
Banco Estado in Chile offers a 'general green credit' for approved electric vehicles, with 100% financing, up to 60 months, and 90 days to pay the first installment. BBVA in Argentina offers a line of loans for sustainable purposes, including electric vehicle purchases, with a maximum amount of 30,000,000 Argentine pesos and up to 60 months.
These initiatives by Latin American banks are encouraging the adoption of electric vehicles, making sustainable mobility more accessible to consumers. By offering long-term financing options and offsetting emissions, these banks are playing a significant role in the region's transition to cleaner transportation.
