In this article, we’ll discuss how Copilot can help you determine your budget for a new car, narrow down your preferences, and find dealerships near you with your preferences in mind.

Make a budget

Before you go out looking for your new sweet ride, it’s important to first set a budget. Copilot can help you analyze your finances and provide personalized recommendations based on your income, expenses, and savings goals. These tools can help you determine how much you can afford to spend on a car, including monthly payments, insurance, and maintenance costs. By setting a realistic budget, you can narrow down your options and avoid overspending. Start setting a budget with prompts like these:

  1. I just paid off my car and am looking for a newer model. How much can I afford to spend on a car based on my income and expenses?
  2. What should my monthly car payment be if I want to save for other goals, like travel?
  3. Help me estimate the total cost of owning a car, including insurance and maintenance.

Find your preferred make and model

Once you have a budget in mind, Copilot can help you narrow down your preferences for the make, model, and year of your next car. By analyzing your driving habits, lifestyle, and personal preferences, Copilot can suggest cars that meet your needs. Whether you prioritize fuel efficiency, safety features, or brand reputation, it can provide a curated list of options that fit your criteria. Try prompts like these to get started:

  1. My partner and I are moving to a new city and need a new car for our daily commute. Which car models are best for city driving and fuel efficiency?
  2. I’m looking for a new family car that can seat at least five people. Which cars have the best safety features for families?
  3. I do a lot of road tripping, and I’m looking for a reliable vehicle with low maintenance costs. Which car brands should I consider?
