Ford Finance Canada: Different Financing Options for SUVs
Ford Finance Canada: Different Financing Options for SUVs
Posted on June 4, 2025
Shopping and selecting a new SUV is an exciting process but the excitement of driving a new Ford Bronco fades when you start thinking about financing options. Understanding your financing options doesn’t have to be complicated, it can be as simple as choosing your favourite radio station. Our team has assisted countless drivers in finding their ideal vehicle while providing essential information about Ford Canada financing deals to create confidence instead of uncertainty.
Why an SUV Makes Perfect Sense For Calgary
Every Albertan who has endured one winter season understands why SUVs dominate our roads. The combination of snowfall and icy roads during chinook wind shifts will make you appreciate the benefits of extra ground clearance and available all wheel drive. If paying the full price isn’t an option then Ford Finance has flexible options that make it easier to get behind the wheel without the stress.
Financing vs. Leasing: What's Your Style?
Now comes the age old debate: do I lease or finance? This decision goes beyond financial calculations because it affects your lifestyle choices. Let’s break down the major differences and why one choice might be better than the other.
When financing makes sense:
- You're the type who gets every last mile out of your vehicle.
- Your daily commute results in high mileage
- You love customizing and tailoring your vehicle.
- You prefer to build equity instead of ongoing loan expenses.
When leasing might be better:
- You enjoy that new car feeling every few years
- Your annual driving stays under 20,000 km
- You prefer lower monthly payments
- Your business use of the vehicle allows you to claim lease payments as a tax deduction.
Making the right decision often depends on your specific driving needs and goals. Consider someone commutes from Airdrie to Calgary and first looks at leasing a Ford Escape because of its lower monthly payments. The decision to finance was actually more practical than leasing because of the high annual mileage of 35,000 km. This choice paid off with the benefits of ownership and building equity.
Ford Credit Finance Options you might not know about
Ford Credit provides various financing options which typically go under the radar.
Standard Purchase Financing
Our traditional financing model provides fixed payment periods ranging from 36 months to 84 months. The interest rates remain competitive for customers who maintain good credit scores and provide appropriate down payments.
Ford Flex Buy
This financing option provides payment flexibility which allows you to make decisions about your vehicle at a later time. Your initial payments during the first part of your term will be smaller while you will need to make a larger payment at the end if you decide to keep your SUV.
Recent Graduate Program
Just finished school? Ford Credit understands the challenges of beginning your financial journey. The graduate program at Ford Credit provides adaptable payment terms which take into account your developing career and credit profile.
First-Time Buyer Program
Everyone remembers their first vehicle purchase. The First-Time Buyer Program at Ford Credit Finance enables customers to establish credit while obtaining dependable vehicles instead of the unreliable used cars many start out with.
Smart Moves Before You Shop
The process of determining your budget range helps avoid time consuming searches and disappointing results. Most dealerships will not inform you immediately about the importance of getting pre-approved before selecting a particular model.
Our online tools at Metro Ford enable you to determine your purchasing capacity without requiring any uncomfortable discussions.
Your credit score matters, but it's not everything. The majority of people have available financing choices despite their imperfect credit history.
Save Bigger During Specific Ford Deals
The timing of your purchase is equally as important to the selection of your vehicle.
Ford Canada provides their top financing deals at specific times throughout the year:
- Model year end clearances (usually August through October)
- Boxing Week specials
- Employee Pricing events (typically summer months)
These specific periods offer customers:
- Special rates as low as 0% APR
- Cash rebates up to $5,000
- Enhanced trade in values
- No payment periods to start your term
Curious how this could apply to you? A customer visited the dealership in the fall when the dealership was conducting their 2024 model clearance sales. The combination of model year discounts and Ford's financing promotion saved them over $3,000 compared to what the same vehicle would have cost just a few months earlier.
