Teen auto insurance


Jeff Johnson: I am looking for a car for my teenaged son. Can you give me any hints as to which would be the least expensive to be insured.

Response: When looking for teen auto insurance quote, first find out which are the least expensive vehicles to be insured since this is something you have control over. Every year, organizations like the Insurance Institute for Highway safety, and companies like Insure.com compile and analyze data from consumers and individual insurers around the country, in order to provide the public with information like which cars are cheapest to own, or safest to drive.

For 2009, the top five in the “least expensive cars to insure” list are all relatively inexpensive SUVs and minivans, and similar models round out the top ten (with the exception of a single SmartCar).This is based on important factor in the cost of insurance is the cost of likely repairs. Cars which are hybrids, with their new and extremely specific technology, cost more to repair than even the largest cars with traditional gasoline engines. The small cars, with their lack of crumple zones, are more likely to be declared total losses in the event of a crash. SUVs and Minivans, on the other hand, are built to survive rugged conditions and/or protect families. They’re pretty tough to destroy.

Here’s the list, with their average annual insurance The prices shown are US national averages:
Vehicle MSRP Average Cost of Insurance
Hyundai Santa Fe $21,695 $832
Kia Sportage $16,695 $840
Hyundai Entourage $23,395 $848
Kia Sedona $21,245 $857
Kia Rio5 $13,325 $870
Honda Odyssey $26,355 $871
Chrysler Town & Country $26,355 $871
Smart ForTwo $11,990 $881
Saturn Vue $23,380 $911
Mazda Tribute $19,730 $913

I have already given the list for the 2010 cars which were declared as safe models by the Insurance Institute and so you can go to that list. The average price of insurance will be comming quite shortly. This will give you an idea as to what car to buy, but shop around for cheap car insurance quotes.
