Know the minimum insurance you need in Virginia

Every state has specific car insurance requirements. In Virginia, 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 Virginia’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.

How your car’s trim affects insurance rates in Virginia

In Virginia, insurance premiums vary depending on your vehicle’s trim. Higher trims with upgraded technology or more powerful engines are often more expensive to insure because of their costly replacement and repair costs.

For instance, full coverage car insurance for a 2023 Honda Accord LX in Virginia costs $2,536 per year. On the other hand, the Honda Accord EX-L trim costs $2,278 annually to insure – a difference of $258.

Luxury features such as premium audio systems can increase a vehicle’s value, leading to higher premiums. Similarly, performance trims with larger engines may raise insurance premiums due to the higher risk of accidents or speeding.
