Average car insurance costs for teens in Nevada

Car insurance costs an average of $7,505 per year for teen drivers in Nevada with coverage limits of 100/300/100-that’s $100,000 for one person’s injuries, $300,000 for all injuries in an accident, and $100,000 for property damage-plus $500 deductibles for collision and comprehensive coverage.

Teen drivers face higher car insurance rates than young adults or older drivers because they lack experience on the road. Insurers see them as higher risk, which leads to steeper premiums.

Insurance rates in Nevada also vary based on the coverage limits you choose, the type of car you drive, and the ZIP code you live in. Nevada families can lower costs by taking advantage of good student discounts, enrolling teens in a driving program and adding teens to an existing family policy rather than buying a separate one.

Teen car insurance rates in Nevada, broken down by age

Car insurance costs for teens in Nevada vary depending on age. For instance, a full coverage car insurance policy for a 16-year-old in Nevada costs $10,289 per year. Once teens reach 19, the average cost falls to $4,726 annually.

Although these premiums are still much higher than those for adult drivers, the steady decline shows that coverage becomes more affordable as teens gain more experience driving.

Teen car insurance rates in Nevada, by gender

In most states, insurers set rates differently for male and female drivers, though California, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Michigan, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania prohibit this. In Nevada, a 16-year-old male pays around $10,661 per year, compared to $9,929 for a female – a difference of $732.

Crash data helps explain the gap. According to the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety, 3,048 teens ages 13-19 lost their lives in motor vehicle crashes in 2023, and two out of three were male. Because young men are more likely to be in serious accidents, insurers factor that risk into their rates.

The table below shows average teen car insurance rates in Nevada by gender.

AgeAverage annual premium for maleAverage annual premium for female
16$10,661$9,929
17$8,518$7,429
18$7,241$6,371

Minimum coverage requirements for teens in Nevada

In Nevada, teen drivers must meet the same minimum liability requirements as adults:

  • $25,000 for bodily injury liability per person
  • $50,000 for bodily injury liability per accident
  • $20,000 for property damage liability

These limits are designed as a baseline, but they may not be enough to cover serious accidents. Many families choose higher limits for more protection when adding a teen driver.

If the car is financed or leased, comprehensive and collision coverage are also required. These cover damage to your own car from accidents, theft, or weather.

Smart ways to save on car insurance for your teen

There’s no avoiding the fact that insuring a teen driver costs more, but you can take steps to manage the expense while keeping them safe on the road:

  • Check state averages. Knowing what families typically pay in your state gives you a ballpark figure to budget and compare against quotes.
  • Choose the right car. A safe, reliable sedan is far cheaper to insure than a luxury or sports car.
  • Consider full coverage. Liability is cheaper, but full coverage offers better protection against accidents, injuries, and costly repairs.
  • Ask about discounts. Many insurers reward good grades, defensive driving courses, or low mileage with lower rates.
  • Talk with your teen. Driving isn’t just freedom – it’s responsibility. Open conversations about risks and safety can encourage habits that save lives.
  • Review your rates each year. Premiums usually drop as your teen gains experience and keeps a clean record, so it’s worth checking annually.

Giving your teen a safe start on the road

Adding a teen driver to your policy will raise costs at first, but rates typically decline as they gain experience.

You can keep expenses under control by comparing quotes, bundling policies, and taking advantage of discounts. More importantly, the right coverage helps your teen build confidence and keeps your family financially protected as they start driving.
