The biggest shift is the abolition of the “Rule of 78” and flat-rate interest calculations for all future hire-purchase loans.&nbsp; <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/20379/16344199/conversions/Auto-Loan-Caricarz-(2)-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16344199" alt="Auto-Loan-Caricarz-(2).jpg"> These will be replaced by the reducing balance method, a simpler and more equitable formula already used in countries like Australia and the UK. How interest is calculated determines not only how much you pay, but when you pay it, and the difference between these methods is substantial.Under the old flat-rate method, interest was calculated on the full loan amount for the entire tenure, regardless of how much you had repaid.&nbsp; <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/20379/16344200/conversions/Auto-Loan-Caricarz-(7)-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16344200" alt="Auto-Loan-Caricarz-(7).jpg"> For example, a typical RM100,000 auto loan over seven years at 3% interest would incur RM21,000 in total interest, making total repayments RM121,000, or about RM1,440 per month. Even if you had only a small portion left to settle, you would still be paying interest as if the full RM100,000 were outstanding. It was simple, but fundamentally unfair to borrowers.The Rule of 78 made matters worse by front-loading interest into the earliest instalments. Using the same loan example, the first month’s interest payment would be roughly RM494, leaving RM946 to reduce the principal, while the last month’s interest would fall to around RM6, even though monthly repayments remained the same.&nbsp; <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/20379/16344201/conversions/Auto-Loan-Caricarz-(3)-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16344201" alt="Auto-Loan-Caricarz-(3).jpg"> This meant that if you settled the loan early, you would have paid off very little of the principal despite keeping up with your instalments, offering minimal savings and effectively penalising early repayment.The new reducing balance method eliminates this issue. Interest is calculated each month only on the outstanding amount, not the original total. In the same RM100,000 loan, the first month’s interest would be RM250, decreasing steadily as the principal is paid down. By the final month, interest would be negligible, and settling the loan early results in real, proportional savings because you stop paying interest on what you no longer owe. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/20379/16344202/conversions/Auto-Loan-Caricarz-(5)-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16344202" alt="Auto-Loan-Caricarz-(5).jpg"> Existing borrowers may also benefit. The new rules can be applied to current hire-purchase loans if both borrower and lender agree to adopt the reducing balance method. Some lenders may begin offering this even before the <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2025/10/hire-purchase-amendment-bill-2025-passed-by-parliament" target="_blank">Bill is formally gazetted, which is expected in the first half of 2026</a>.The amendments also strengthen transparency and modernise processes. Lenders must now display the <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2024/10/no-need-to-rush-lemon-law-experts" target="_blank">Effective Interest Rate (EIR)</a> in all marketing materials and loan agreements, giving consumers a true, comparable view of the total financing cost.&nbsp;Hire-purchase agreements can also be signed electronically, removing the need for physical paperwork and in-person signing. The new rules will come into force after an 18-month transition period to allow lenders to update their systems, though some may adopt the changes earlier.&nbsp; Source: <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/2025/11/14/hire-purchase-act-reforms-why-settling-your-car-loan-early-will-finally-make-financial-sense-in-2026/198217" target="_blank">MalayMail</a>

Flat Rate, Rule of 78, Reducing Balance: How Hire-Purchase Loans Really Work

<img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/20372/16343021/conversions/Genting-Road-Fee-(1)-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16343021" alt="Genting-Road-Fee-(1).png"> Motorists traveling up to Genting Highlands will <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2023/10/toll-charges-soon-to-drive-up-genting-highlands" target="_blank">soon face a vehicle fee</a>, Genting Malaysia Bhd has confirmed. The company said the charge is intended to support maintenance and safety measures along the 24 KM private road that winds up the mountain.Details such as the fee amount and start date are yet to be finalised. The move comes as Genting Malaysia seeks to manage rising costs for maintaining Jalan Genting Highlands and its surrounding slopes, a responsibility it has shouldered alone since the 1960s. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/20372/16343023/conversions/Genting-Road-Fee-(2)-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16343023" alt="Genting-Road-Fee-(2).jpg"> Built on challenging terrain, the road provides access not only to Resorts World Genting but also to other destinations along the highlands corridor. Genting Malaysia said heavy usage has caused significant wear and tear, making constant upkeep essential for safety.Working on steep and unstable terrain is both dangerous and costly. Teams are stationed at mid hill and hilltop around the clock to respond to emergencies and carry out repairs. The company described the fee as a private initiative on privately owned land, guided by the user pays principle.&nbsp;This, it said, is the most sustainable way to cover maintenance, slope reinforcement and unforeseen incidents for the benefit of all road users. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/20372/16343025/conversions/Genting-Road-Fee-(4)-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16343025" alt="Genting-Road-Fee-(4).jpg"> The announcement follows a <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.carz.com.my/2023/10/genting-highlands-toll-stop-work-order" target="_blank">stop work order issued by the Bentong Municipal Council</a> in October 2023, when a toll gantry near Gohtong Jaya was being built without formal plans or approvals.&nbsp;Back then officials clarified that the council could not approve toll collection, which would require review by the Pahang state government, its investment and privatisation department, and relevant federal ministries. <img src="https://static-content-live.caricarz.com/media_library/post/20372/16343026/conversions/Genting-Road-Fee-(1)-full_normal.jpg" style="width: 100%;" data-media-id="16343026" alt="Genting-Road-Fee-(1).jpg"> Genting Malaysia’s latest confirmation suggests the long-stalled toll proposal may finally have secured the necessary approvals, paving the way for the vehicle fee on the privately owned road.Jalan Genting Highlands plays a key role in the local economy, supporting tourism, enabling small businesses, creating jobs, and contributing to both the Pahang state and national economies. Ensuring its safety and reliability is essential for continued economic and tourism growth.<div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;"> </div><div style="text-align: justify;">Source: <a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/2025/11/13/pay-to-climb-genting-highlands-road-to-charge-vehicles-for-safety-and-sustainability/198249#google_vignette" target="_blank">MalayMail</a></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><a rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" href="https://www.malaymail.com/news/malaysia/2025/11/13/pay-to-climb-genting-highlands-road-to-charge-vehicles-for-safety-and-sustainability/198249#google_vignette" target="_blank"> </a></div><iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2FResortsWorldGenting%2Fposts%2Fpfbid0RGQBvrs3kZmX1pmLQzMB1EYMCggi69CA6rGJ1Lnm8W818QDMNASXBbhmEU2tjUN9l&amp;show_text=true&amp;width=500" width="500" height="252" style="border:none;overflow:hidden" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="true" allow="autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; picture-in-picture; web-share"></iframe>
