See which cars and brands have the lowest car insurance premiums by make, model, age, location and more
The cheapest cars to insure are often the ones with lowest sticker prices. But this isn't always the case. Factors like safety features, repair costs and typical driver profile all play a role. We analyzed over 300 models and ranked the least and most expensive luxury and popular cars to insure. Our rankings are based on a 40 year old good driver with full coverage and good credit that drives around 13k miles annualy.
A few of these rankings may surprise you, while many are right about where you'd expect them to be. Keep in mind that the brand rankings are an average of their models. Some manufacturers only produce small affordable sedans, while others have a full line-up of cars, trucks and SUVs. Click on any brand or model name to see more detail on how age, location and driving record can impact rates. Or, visit our Competitive Quote Tool to search for a lower insurance premium.

As the advocate of car buyers, we believe that transparency is what consumers need, and deserve, and we have provided you just that. The overall brand rankings are just below.
