About $1,735 a year for full coverage on a national average — 21% more than the $1,438 average car. Insurers rate the Mitsubishi Outlander at an index of 121 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 Mitsubishi Outlander: Medical payments — medical bills for you and passengers — carries its highest loss index at 160, while Property damage sits at 107. Those 53 points are the real reason behind the price, and they are the part a quote form never shows you. Among 78 suvs we hold data for, the Outlander ranks #74 from cheapest, above the class median of 94. Against what the car is worth the bill looks different again: a 2025 Outlander sells for a median $28,749, so a year of cover costs 6% of the car's value. Over 19 generations of data the index has climbed from 113 (2004-2006) to 121 (2022-2024). Worth noting: this car earns 5 stars from NHTSA and still insures above average — crash protection and repair cost are separate things, and insurers price the second one. Calculated from 42 insurance-loss records and live US listing prices.
Why a Outlander 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 $1,735: Liability (BI + PD) $833 · Collision $486 · Comprehensive $208 · Other (UM / PIP) $208.

Why is the Outlander expensive or cheap to insure?

Where does this data come from?
Insurance-loss indices published for real vehicles, combined with NAIC state average premiums. It's claim history, not a quote engine — so it shows what these cars actually cost insurers rather than what one company would offer you.
Will my own quote match this?
Treat it as a baseline for the car itself. Your figure also moves with age, driving record, deductible, mileage and ZIP code — the same Outlander can differ by hundreds between two drivers.
