Wagon: 2026 Volvo V60 Cross Country Plus, $1,631 a month, 47% below average, though this category includes only five qualifying vehicles. Across every category, the pattern holds: a lower purchase price reduces the loan payment more than any other single factor, and the loan payment remains the largest component of complete monthly cost in nearly every case. Buyers who want to see their own complete monthly cost on any specific vehicle, based on their actual credit profile and financing terms, can calculate it directly on CarCostCX.
