How does the make and model of my vehicle affect my insurance rates?

Insurance companies consider several factors related to your car – such as its cost, safety features, crash test ratings, average repair expenses and the likelihood of theft – to determine how much risk you pose as a policyholder.

For example, luxury or high-performance sports cars typically cost more to insure because they’re expensive to repair or replace. On the other hand, vehicles with low average repair costs, like many family sedans or compact SUVs, come with cheaper insurance rates.

Why are some types of cars more expensive to insure?

Some makes and models are more expensive to insure because they pose a higher risk for the insurance company. Luxury or sports cars usually have high-tech components and other pricey features that make them more costly to repair or replace after an accident.

For instance, it costs $4,998 annually to insure an Audi RS Q8, a luxury sports vehicle. In contrast, a family sedan such as the Honda Accord costs $2,342 annually – a difference of $2,656, according to our data analysis.

Sports and luxury vehicles are also more likely to be targeted by thieves. Generally, the higher the cost to repair or replace your car, the more you will pay for insurance.

How to get the most affordable car insurance rates

Car insurance can be costly. But you can save money on your premium by taking a few proactive steps, including:

Shop around. Rates can vary among insurers, depending on your driving history, location and the type of car you own. Make sure you compare quotes apples to apples before purchasing a policy.

Maintain a good driving record. Your driving history plays a major role in determining your rates. Drivers with clean records usually pay less for insurance. Avoid accidents and traffic violations, as these can raise your premium.

Choose the right coverage. Make sure you have enough coverage to protect yourself in an accident, adjusting it based on your car’s value and requirements.

Ask for discounts. Many insurers offer discounts that can help reduce your premium. For example, you might be eligible for discounts if you bundle your car insurance with other policies, such as home or renters insurance.

Maintain good credit. In many states, insurers consider your credit score when setting your rates. Drivers with higher credit scores often pay lower premiums.

If you’re driving a vehicle with high insurance costs, consider shopping around and evaluating your existing coverage options. Sometimes, adjusting your deductible or bundling policies can make a significant difference.

Frequently asked questions

How does the age of a car impact insurance rates?

Generally, older cars cost less to insure because they lose value over time. Insurance companies base premiums partly on how much it would cost to repair or replace your vehicle if it’s damaged or stolen. As your car ages and its value decreases, the cost to repair it usually lowers, leading to reduced insurance premiums.

Are newer vehicle models more expensive to insure?

Newer vehicle models usually cost more to insure because their high-tech components – such as collision-avoidance systems or blind-spot detection – are more expensive to replace and install. Insurance companies take these factors into account when calculating premiums.

How do the safety ratings of my car’s make and model affect my insurance rates?

Your car’s safety ratings significantly influence your insurance rates. Vehicles with high safety ratings, awarded by organizations like the IIHS (Insurance Institute for Highway Safety) or NHTSA (National Highway Traffic Safety Administration), are considered safer and less likely to result in costly claims. Therefore, insurers typically offer lower premiums for vehicles that score high in crash tests and have advanced safety features.

Methodology
