The premium isn't spread evenly across the RAM Promaster City: Property damage — damage you cause to other property — carries its highest loss index at 110, while Comprehensive sits at 67. Those 43 points are the real reason behind the price, and they are the part a quote form never shows you.

Over 6 generations of data the index has fallen from 99 (2015-2017) to 86 (2020-2022). Calculated from 6 insurance-loss records and live US listing prices.

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:
