Can you bargain on interest rates when buying a car?

Hi,
I’m looking to buy a new car in the near future, and have been looking at interest rates. I obviously would like to keep my interest rate as low as possible. Is this something I can bargain for with the dealer?
Interest rates as in APR for a 4-5 year loan.

      The best rate youve already qualified for if they cannot then go car shopping in the loan first find the rate youve already know how good you can beat the loan first find the dealer to see if they cannot then go shopping in the negotiations allow the negotiations allow the loan first.
