About $1,664 a year for full coverage on a national average — 16% more than the $1,438 average car. Insurers rate the BMW 335is at an index of 116 where 100 is a typical vehicle, based on how often and how expensively these cars actually generate claims (latest data covers 2015-2017).
The premium isn't spread evenly. Comprehensive — theft, weather, vandalism, animals — carries this car's highest loss index at 152, while Personal injury (PIP) sits at 82. That gap is the real reason behind the price, and it's the part a quote form never shows you. Calculated from 7 insurance-loss records.
Why a 335is costs what it does
Insurers don't price a car with one number — they track losses separately for each kind of cover. An index of 100 is the average vehicle, so anything above means this model generates costlier claims of that type:
Read it as «where the money goes». A high Collision figure means these cars are expensive to repair after a crash; a high Comprehensive figure points at theft, weather and vandalism instead. Estimated annual split at $1,664: Liability (BI + PD) $799 · Collision $466 · Comprehensive $200 · Other (UM / PIP) $200.
How it changed by generation
Insurance-loss index of the 335is across every generation in the data. Newer isn't automatically cheaper — driver-assist systems cut crash frequency, while sensors and aluminium panels push repair bills up:
Each point averages every recorded variant of that generation. The 335is has become more expensive to insure over time (+3 points).
What a 335is costs by state
Where you park matters as much as what you drive. The 335is's index applied to each state's average premium — the same car, the same cover, different postcode:

|---|---|---|
| Florida | +39% vs US | |
| Louisiana | +38% vs US | |
| New York | +32% vs US | |
| District of Columbia | +26% vs US | |
| Georgia | +21% vs US | |
| Texas | +20% vs US | |
| Wisconsin | -30% vs US | |
| Hawaii | -31% vs US | |
| Idaho | -32% vs US | |
| North Dakota | -33% vs US | |
| Vermont | -33% vs US | |
| Maine | -36% vs US |
