About $1,665 a year for full coverage on a national average — 16% more than the $1,438 average car. Insurers rate the Infiniti QX56 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 2011-2013).
The premium isn't spread evenly across the Infiniti QX56: Comprehensive — theft, weather, vandalism, animals — carries its highest loss index at 188, while Medical payments sits at 55. Those 133 points are the real reason behind the price, and they are the part a quote form never shows you. Against what the car is worth the bill looks different again: a 2013 QX56 sells for a median $6,990, so a year of cover costs 23.8% of the car's value. Over 8 generations of data the index has climbed from 105 (2004-2006) to 116 (2011-2013). Calculated from 16 insurance-loss records and live US listing prices.
Why a QX56 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 $1,665: Liability (BI + PD) $799 · Collision $466 · Comprehensive $200 · Other (UM / PIP) $200.
How it changed by generation

Each point averages every recorded variant of that generation. The QX56 has become more expensive to insure over time (+11 points).
