A bare ute is rarely ready for work, and the accessories that make it job-ready can add up quickly. The good news is that fit-outs can often be financed alongside the vehicle. Here is how it generally works for business buyers.
Can you finance ute accessories?
When accessories and fit-outs are part of the purchase, they can frequently be included in the finance rather than paid for separately. This spreads the cost over the loan term alongside the ute itself. Common inclusions are toolboxes, drawers, racks, ladder mounts, dual-battery systems and secure storage.
How is accessory finance structured?
Lenders generally prefer the fit-out to be quoted and financed at the same time as the vehicle, often through a single invoice or coordinated supplier. Adding items after settlement can be harder to roll in. Getting the full package priced upfront makes for a cleaner application and one set of repayments.
What to consider when financing fit-outs?
The total financed amount rises with the fit-out, so repayments reflect the complete package. Lender appetite for the type and value of accessories can vary, and it remains subject to their criteria. Your accountant can advise on how the fit-out is treated for tax purposes.
