Repair costExpensive parts, aluminium bodies and complex tech make repairs costly.
Theft rateFrequently-stolen models drive comprehensive claims up.
Power & speedHigh horsepower means more, and more severe, crashes.
SafetyCars driven fast or with weak occupant protection cost more.
Who drives itFamily-oriented cars are driven more carefully; sporty ones aren't.
ValueA pricier car costs more to replace, raising collision and comprehensive.

What is the most expensive car to insure?
The McLaren 720S is the most expensive car to insure in our data — about $10,589/yr at the US average, roughly 636% above a typical car.
How is this ranking calculated?
We rank cars by their real HLDI insurance-loss index (how much each costs insurers versus an average car, 100 = average) and estimate the premium as the US-average premium × that index. It's an estimate for a typical driver, full coverage — not a quote.
Are cars cheaper to insure than other cars?
The cars here run above the average car — high power, repair cost and theft push their premiums up.
Does the state I live in change this?
Yes — these figures use the US average. Your state can move the premium up or down by 30%+ . Use the calculator or see cost by state.
Ranking computed by ForCar from HLDI/IIHS insurance-loss indices (relative losses versus an average car, 100 = average) combined with NAIC US average premium (2023). Estimates assume a typical driver, full coverage; your quote varies with state, age, record and coverage. For research and comparison, not a quote. Reviewed by Denis Kataev, founder of ForCar.
