Does your vehicle model affect car insurance rates in Maine?

Your car’s make and model play a major role in determining your insurance rates, along with other factors insurers use when setting premiums.

For example, the average annual full coverage cost for a Honda Accord LX in Maine is $1,606, while the average premium for a Honda CR-V is $1,334 – that’s a difference of $272 annually.

Does your car’s model year affect insurance rates in Maine?

In Maine – as in many other states – a car’s model year can impact your insurance rates. For instance, the annual premium for a 2023 Honda Accord LX is around $2,570, while insuring the 2024 model costs $1,543.

Quick tip: Check your state’s minimum coverage rules

Every state sets its own minimum car insurance requirements, and Maine is no exception. To drive legally, you’ll need at least the minimum liability coverage, which typically includes:

  • Bodily injury liability per person and per accident
  • Property damage liability

These limits are the bare minimum – many drivers choose higher coverage to better protect themselves financially after an accident. Not carrying the required coverage in Maine can lead to fines, license suspension and even vehicle impoundment.

Auto insurance premiums vary significantly from city to city, so drivers need to be sure they’re getting the best deal. Insure.com has done the research for you. Get more information on auto insurance rates by city below.

How your car’s trim affects insurance rates in Maine

Your car’s trim level plays a big role in determining your insurance premium. Insurers consider the vehicle’s value, repair costs, safety features and theft risk when setting rates. Higher trims with upgraded technology or powerful engines often have higher premiums since they’re more expensive to repair or replace.

For example, a 2023 Honda Accord LX costs $2,570 per year to insure in Maine, whereas the EX-L trim costs $2,170, a difference of $400 annually.

Trims that include luxury upgrades, like a premium sound system, often cost more to insure because they raise the vehicle’s overall value. Similarly, performance-focused trims with larger engines may increase premiums due to a greater risk of accidents or speeding.

The average annual premium for a full coverage car insurance policy in Maine is $1,701 or $142 per month. However, your actual premium may differ depending on your chosen coverage level.
