Honda Insight Insurance Quotes in Dallas

Amazingly, a recent NerdWallet.com study showed that most car insurance customers have stayed with the same insurance company for at least the last four years, and approximately 38% of consumers have never even compared quotes to find cheap rates. Drivers in Dallas could save $1,800 a year just by getting comparison quotes, but most just don’t grasp how much they could save if they just switched companies.

If you want to save the most money, the best way to get low-cost Honda Insight insurance is to make a habit of comparing prices annually from different companies in Dallas.

Step 1: Try to understand individual coverages and the factors you can control to lower rates. Many rating criteria that cause high rates such as traffic violations, accidents, and poor credit history can be improved by making lifestyle changes or driving safer.

Step 2: Quote rates from direct, independent, and exclusive agents. Direct companies and exclusive agencies can only give prices from a single company like Progressive or State Farm, while agents who are independent can provide prices for a wide range of companies. View companies

Step 3: Compare the new rates to your existing policy to see if a cheaper rate is available in Dallas. If you find a lower rate quote and decide to switch, ensure there is no coverage lapse between policies.

A key point to remember is to compare the same coverage limits and deductibles on each price quote and to quote with as many auto insurance providers as possible. Doing this enables a fair price comparison and and a good selection of different prices.

The providers in the list below are ready to provide comparison quotes in Texas. If more than one company is shown, we recommend you visit several of them to find the lowest auto insurance rates.

Rates and data analysis

The premium information displayed below highlights different rate quotes for Honda Insight models. Being aware of how auto insurance policy rates are formulated can help customers make smart policy decisions.

Data assumes single male driver age 50, no speeding tickets, no at-fault accidents, $500 deductibles, and Texas minimum liability limits. Discounts applied include safe-driver, homeowner, multi-vehicle, multi-policy, and claim-free. Estimates do not factor in specific Dallas garaging location which can raise or lower premium rates substantially.

Higher deductibles save money

When comparing auto insurance rates, the most common question is what deductibles to buy. The following tables can help you understand the premium difference when you buy lower versus higher comp and collision deductibles. The first rate table uses a $100 deductible for comp and collision and the second price chart uses a $500 deductible.

Data assumes married male driver age 30, no speeding tickets, no at-fault accidents, and Texas minimum liability limits. Discounts applied include safe-driver, multi-vehicle, homeowner, multi-policy, and claim-free. Premium amounts do not factor in specific zip code location which can impact coverage prices substantially.

We can derive from the above data that using a $100 deductible costs approximately $26 more each month or $312 annually across all Honda Insight models than choosing the higher $500 deductible. Due to the fact that you would have to pay $400 more out-of-pocket with a $500 deductible as compared to a $100 deductible, if you tend to have more than 15 months between claims, you would save more money if you elect the higher deductible.

One thing to note is that higher deductibles means you will have to pay more when you do file a claim. You need to have enough extra money in the event you have to pay the higher deductible in order to repair your vehicle.

The information below highlights how deductible selection and can increase or decrease Honda Insight insurance prices for different age groups of insureds. The rate quotes are based on a married female driver, comp and collision included, and no other discounts are factored in.

Car insurance can cost a lot, but you may find discounts that could drop your premiums quite a bit. Certain reductions will be credited at quote time, but a few must be asked about before you get the savings.

Car insurance is not optional

Despite the high insurance cost for a Honda Insight in Dallas, car insurance may be mandatory for several reasons.

First, almost all states have minimum mandated liability insurance limits which means you are required to carry a specific minimum amount of liability coverage in order to drive the car. In Texas these limits are 30/60/25 which means you must have $30,000 of bodily injury coverage per person, $60,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and $25,000 of property damage coverage.

Second, if you bought your Honda Insight with a loan, most banks will make it a condition of the loan that you have insurance to ensure loan repayment if the vehicle is totaled. If you cancel or allow the policy to lapse, the bank or lender will purchase a policy for your Honda at a much higher premium rate and require you to pay for it.

Third, car insurance preserves not only your car but also your assets. It will also reimburse you for medical bills incurred in an accident. Liability insurance, one of your policy coverages, also pays expenses related to your legal defense if you cause an accident and are sued. If mother nature or an accident damages your car, comprehensive and collision coverage will pay all costs to repair after the deductible has been paid.

The benefits of insuring your Insight more than offset the price you pay, particularly if you ever have a claim. But the average driver in Texas overpays as much as $855 a year so shop around at least once a year to help ensure money is not being wasted.
