Generally the manufacturers offer insanely low interest rates in the interest of moving new cars.
They get a kickback of sorts for each loan they finalize through the banks. If a loan isn't held to a certain term, they don't get that kickback.

Not all banks/dealers operate this way I suppose but all the one's I have friends working/worked at do.
