How Vehicles Affect Auto Insurance Rates

The claims history of the vehicle you’re insuring can have a large impact on your auto insurance rates. If your insurer has received frequent and/or expensive claims for that model, it will increase your own rate, even if you have a great driving record.

In addition, expensive vehicles that hold high cash value lead to expensive claims when they’re totaled and collision or comprehensive insurance pays out. Note that this payout is based on the cash value of the vehicle at the time it’s totaled, not the MSRP or price you paid for it.

Compare, for example, the Maserati Quattroporte GTS GranLusso, with an average annual car insurance rate of $4,271, with the popular Toyota RAV4 at about $1,700 a year for the same amount of coverage.
