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, by age

Rates change quickly as teens get older. For example, a full coverage policy for a 16-year-old in Nevada averages $10,289 per year. At 19, the average falls again to $4,726.

Premiums are still higher than those for adult drivers, but the steady decline shows how experience behind the wheel helps bring costs down over time.

See the table below for average teen car insurance rates in Nevada by age.

Teen car insurance in Nevada, by gender

In most states, insurers can use gender when setting rates. California, Hawaii, Massachusetts, Michigan, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania are the exceptions. In Nevada, a 16-year-old male driver pays about $10,661 annually, while a female of the same age pays $9,929 – a difference of $732.

Crash statistics back up this difference. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety reports that 3,048 teenagers ages 13-19 died in vehicle crashes in 2023, and two out of three were male. Because young men are more often involved in serious accidents, insurers factor that risk into premiums.

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

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.
