At $3,468 per year, full coverage car insurance in Colorado Springs is $287 more than the state average and $890 more than the national average. American National offers the lowest average rate at $1,709, but your actual premium depends on factors like your age, driving record, and coverage level.

Where you live plays a bigger role than most drivers expect. Insurers price risk by ZIP code, so local factors – traffic density, accident and theft rates, repair costs, weather, and the share of uninsured drivers on the road – all feed into what you pay in Colorado Springs. That’s why two drivers with identical records can pay very different rates depending on which side of a city line they live on.

How much car insurance do you need in Colorado Springs?

Liability coverage is necessary to drive legally for drivers in Colorado Springs, but full coverage protects more – it pays out for your own vehicle, not just the other driver’s.

With liability only, you’re covered for damage you cause to someone else – but not for your own car. A crash, theft, or a tree branch through your windshield comes straight out of your pocket. Here’s what each coverage level costs per year and what it includes:

  • State minimum coverage: $705 per year – Limits of $25,000 bodily injury per person, $50,000 total bodily injury per accident, $25,000 property damage. The lowest coverage level allowed by law.
  • Liability only coverage: $816 per year – Limits of $50,000 bodily injury per person, $100,000 total bodily injury per accident, $50,000 property damage. Pays for injuries to others and property damage when you’re at fault – but doesn’t cover your own vehicle.
  • Full coverage: $3,468 per year – Limits of $100,000 bodily injury per person, $300,000 total bodily injury per accident, $100,000 property damage. Combines liability with collision and comprehensive, so your own car is covered too.

Why consider more than the state minimum?

State minimum liability covers other people only, not your own car. If you’re at fault in an accident, your repairs come out of your own pocket. Collision and comprehensive coverage fill that gap. Collision pays for accident damage no matter who’s at fault, and comprehensive covers non-collision events like theft, vandalism, or weather. Lenders require both if you’re financing or leasing.

What does a full coverage policy include?

  • Liability: Pays for the other driver’s injuries and property damage if you’re at fault. It doesn’t cover your car or your medical bills.
  • Collision: Pays to repair or replace your car after an accident, regardless of fault. Required if you’re financing or leasing your car.
  • Comprehensive: Pays for damage to your car from non-collision events, like theft, fire, or weather. Often bundled with collision coverage rather than sold on its own.

Do men or women pay more for car insurance in Colorado Springs?

Male drivers in Colorado Springs average $3,424 per year for full coverage car insurance,which is $88 less than female drivers at $3,512 per year.

The Insurance Information Institute (Triple-I), a nonprofit that researches insurance trends, reports that women are involved in fewer serious accidents than men. Insurers price that risk difference into premiums, which is why men pay more for car insurance.
