Any experience of changing vehicle while in middle of finance

Hi looking for some advice regarding changing vehicles. In 2019 I bought a demo top of line trim vw tiguan. Financed it at a vw dealership.

I not sure how it works if I decided to upgrade vehicle is it best just to stick with vw and stay at same dealership might be more easier. Like if I buy and trade via a used car dealership what if any difference would there be.

Has anyone done this recently any advice. I am thinking to change next march or april. Reason for changing need little more room inside vehicle.

balance of current outstanding loan balance is either you can pay it off 100% or carry over to the new VW purchase. Do be careful of what the new car's interest rate is as you are combining the old and new into one new loan now.

As for the trade in value, that's another thing to worry about as dealer may low ball you on the value.

If you intend to this trade in and get a new VW ... then ....

current trade in value - current balance of loan = net amount to be refinanced (if it's negative equity) and add on to the new car financing.

Now might be the best time. Depending on how much you owe and given the current demand of used cars the dealer may offer you top dollar, best case scenario they pay off your loan 100% and you get a new car with them??

Yeah, the only issue is finding a new car in stock. Make sure the dealer you are working with has one that you want before talking about your trade value.
