Does your vehicle model affect car insurance rates in Maine?

A vehicle’s make and model can significantly impact car insurance rates. Insurers consider various factors, including a vehicle’s make and model, when determining premiums.

For example, full coverage for a Honda Accord LX costs $1,606 per year, while the average premium for a Honda CR-V in Maine is $1,334 – a difference of $272.

How your car’s model year affects insurance rates in Maine

In Maine, insurance premiums often change depending on the car’s model year. For instance, a 2023 Honda Accord LX costs an average of $2,570 year to insure, whereas the 2024 model costs $1,543 annually.

Know the minimum insurance you need in Maine

Every state has specific car insurance requirements. In Maine, you must carry at least the minimum liability coverage to drive legally, which generally includes:

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

While these limits meet Maine’s legal requirements, many drivers choose higher coverage for greater financial security after an accident. Failing to maintain the required insurance can lead to penalties such as fines, license suspension or 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.
