Criteria which help determine insurance rates

Insurance premiums on a 2007 will vary greatly subject to many criteria. A few of these criteria are:

  • More performance equals higher cost
  • Your accident history
  • Multiple policies can save money
  • Pleasure use vs. commuting use
  • Your age
  • Having a spouse can save money
  • Optional coverages like vehicle replacement
  • Whether or not you have claims
  • No coverage lapses saves money
  • Owning a home can lower rates

One important consideration that helps determine your rates is the age of the vehicle. New vehicles cost more compared to older models so the payout to repair will push premiums up. Conversely, newer models have more advanced features such as adaptive cruise control, autonomous braking, traction control, and forward-collision avoidance so those may give discounted rates.

Auto liability

2007 liability coverage protects you from injuries or damage you cause to people or other property in an accident. Liability insurance covers claims such as funeral expenses, loss of income, and emergency aid. This coverage is usually fairly inexpensive so buy as much as you can afford.

Collision insurance

Collision insurance pays for damage to your resulting from a collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You have to pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage. Collision coverage for your 2007 can be pricey, so consider removing coverage from lower value vehicles. It's also possible to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive auto coverage

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You need to pay your deductible first then your comprehensive coverage will pay. The maximum amount a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle's value is low consider dropping full coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

This coverage protects you and your vehicle from other drivers when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Since many drivers have only the minimum liability required by law, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. So UM/UIM coverage is very important.

Medical payments and PIP coverage

Med pay and PIP coverage reimburse you for bills like ambulance fees, surgery, and doctor visits. They are used in conjunction with a health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. Personal injury protection coverage is not available in all states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
