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 sports cars are driven more carefully; sporty ones aren't.
ValueA pricier car costs more to replace, raising collision and comprehensive.

The sports cars here run above the average car — high power, repair cost and theft push their premiums up.

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.
