Presale: GM Financial Consumer Automobile Receivables Trust 2020-1 Rationale The preliminary ratings assigned to GM Financial Consumer Automobile Receivables Trust 2020-1's (GMCAR 2020-1's) $1.25 billion automobile receivables-backed notes reflect: - The availability of approximately 9.0%, 7.8%, 6.6%, and 5.6% credit support for the class A-1, A-2, A-3, A-4 (collectively, class A), B, C, and D notes, respectively (based on stressed cash flow scenarios, including excess spread). These credit support levels provide coverage of more than 5.00x, 4.50x, 4.00x, and 3.67x our 1.00%-1.20% expected cumulative net loss range for the class A, B, C, and D notes, respectively, and are commensurate with the assigned preliminary 'A-1+ (sf)' and 'AAA (sf)', 'AA+ (sf)', 'AA (sf)', and 'AA- (sf)' ratings (see the S&P Global Ratings' Expected Loss and Cash Flow Modeling sections). - The timely interest and full principal payments made under the stressed cash flow modeling scenarios appropriate for the assigned preliminary ratings (see the Cash Flow Modeling section). In our modeling approach, we used a bifurcated pool method, in which the subvened loans prepay and default at lower rates than the nonsubvened loans. (For cash flow purposes, the subvened/nonsubvened cut-off annual percentage rate [APR] is 4.0%.) - Our expectation that under a moderate ('BBB') stress scenario (2.0x our expected loss level), all else being equal, our preliminary 'AAA (sf)', 'AA+ (sf)', and 'AA (sf)' ratings on the class A, B, and C notes, respectively, are not likely to be lowered during the transaction's life, and our preliminary 'AA- (sf)' rating on the class D notes is likely to remain within one rating category while it is outstanding. These potential rating movements are within the tolerances outlined in our credit stability criteria (see "Methodology: Credit Stability Criteria," published May 3, 2010). - The transaction's credit enhancement in the form of subordinated notes, a nonamortizing reserve account, overcollateralization that builds to a target level, a yield supplement overcollateralization amount (YSOA), and excess spread (see the Credit Enhancement Summary table above). - The collateral characteristics of the securitized pool. - Our view of the transaction's payment and legal structures. Changes From GMCAR 2019-3 and 2019-4 The series 2020-1 collateral pool's credit quality appears to be generally similar to GMCAR 2019-4, which S&P Global Ratings did not rate. Structural changes from GMCAR 2019-4 include that the initial YSOA amount as a percentage of the initial adjusted pool balance increased to approximately 2.7% from 2.2%. The collateral composition changes from GMCAR 2019-4 include: - The percentage of new vehicles decreased to 87.9% from 90.5%; - The percentage of loans with original term of 61-75 months increased to 82.0% from 80.0%; - The percentage of loans with original term of 73-75 months decreased to 14.9% from 16.7%; and - The WA LTV ratio increased to 91.2% from 88.0%.

Presale: GM Financial Consumer Automobile Receivables Trust 2020-1 changes include: - The initial YSOA discount rate decreased to 4.00% from 4.25%; - The YSOA discount rate after the class A-2 notes are fully repaid decreased to 3.50% from 3.75%; - The collateral pool's weighted average FICO decreased slightly to 773 from 775; - The weighted average seasoning increased to approximately 9.0 months from 7.6 months; - The percentage of loans with an original term greater than 60 months and up to 75 months increased to 82.0% from 75.9%; however, the percentage of loans with an original term of 72-75 months decreased to 14.9% from 17.5%; and - The weighted average LTV increased to 91.2% from 88.4%.
