About $1,213 a year for full coverage on a national average — 16% less than the $1,438 average car. Insurers rate the Ford Crown Victoria at an index of 84 where 100 is a typical vehicle, based on how often and how expensively these cars actually generate claims (latest data covers 2007-2009).
The premium isn't spread evenly. Property damage — damage you cause to other property — carries this car's highest loss index at 96, while Collision sits at 78. That gap is the real reason behind the price, and it's the part a quote form never shows you. Against what the car is worth the bill looks different again: a 2011 Crown Victoria sells for a median $5,000, so a year of cover costs 24.3% of the car's value. Over 4 generations of data the index has fallen from 90 (2004-2006) to 84 (2007-2009). Calculated from 4 insurance-loss records and live US listing prices.
Why a Crown Victoria 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 $1,213: Liability (BI + PD) $582 · Collision $340 · Comprehensive $146 · Other (UM / PIP) $146.
