I couldn’t find any good information on it other than what you listed. I would just be extra careful and read the fine print. I’m not sure what the second zero percent interest loan is for but it appears like a balloon payment on a lease. A non-amortized loan is like an ARM. Meaning that if you just pay the minimum payment each month then you aren’t doing anything other than paying the interest due on the loan and not paying down any principal. The difference is there is a set amount that you have to pay back before any of it goes to the principal. That would be the second loan total but I just don’t have enough information.
To answer your first question. The interest rate appears to be on par with a credit rating in the mid-600s. If you have a rating over 700 then it’s not that good.
