About $1,427 a year for full coverage on a national average — within a few percent of the $1,438 average car. Insurers rate the Land Rover Discovery Sport at an index of 99 where 100 is a typical vehicle, based on how often and how expensively these cars actually generate claims (latest data covers 2022-2024).
The premium isn't spread evenly across the Land Rover Discovery Sport: Collision — damage to your own car in a crash — carries its highest loss index at 113, while Personal injury (PIP) sits at 79. Those 34 points are the real reason behind the price, and they are the part a quote form never shows you. Among 80 luxury suvs we hold data for, the Discovery Sport ranks #30 from cheapest, below the class median of 109. Against what the car is worth the bill looks different again: a 2025 Discovery Sport sells for a median $53,893, so a year of cover costs 2.6% of the car's value. Over 9 generations of data the index has climbed from 91 (2014-2016) to 99 (2022-2024). Calculated from 9 insurance-loss records and live US listing prices.
Why a Discovery Sport 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 $1,427: Liability (BI + PD) $685 · Collision $400 · Comprehensive $171 · Other (UM / PIP) $171.
