State Farm has the cheapest car insurance rates in the Sunflower State, at $51 per month, on average.
Let’s look at Kansas’ cheapest insurers for different drivers and coverage types.
)
Kansas, like nearly every state, requires drivers to buy car insurance. Drivers in the Sunflower State must have the following minimum car insurance coverage:[4]
$25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident of bodily injury coverage
$25,000 per accident of property damage coverage
Kansas law also requires the following minimums for personal injury protection:
$4,500 per year for medical expenses
$900 per month for one year of disability or income loss
$25 per day for in-home services
$2,000 for burial or cremation expenses
$4,500 for rehabilitation services
In addition, Kansas drivers must have $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident of uninsured/underinsured motorist insurance.
In Kansas, full-coverage car insurance goes beyond liability coverage to include collision, comprehensive, personal injury protection, and uninsured/underinsured motorist protection. Full coverage helps cover the cost of your car’s repairs after accidents, theft, vandalism, and severe weather events, such as hail or storm damage.
Full coverage is worth it for most drivers — especially those with newer, leased, or financed cars. If your car is older and not worth much, liability-only insurance may be the best option for you.
In addition to meeting Kansas’ minimum insurance requirements, you can customize your policy with coverages that give you extra peace of mind. Here are some coverage options to consider:
Collision coverage pays for your damages if you hit another car or object.
Comprehensive insurance pays for damages from things like hail, theft, or hitting an animal.
Roadside assistance covers services such as towing, changing flat tires, car lockouts, and jump-starting batteries.
Rental car reimbursement helps cover the cost of temporary transportation while the mechanic repairs your car after a claim.
Gap coverage helps cover the difference between your car’s payout value and its remaining loan or lease balance if someone steals your car or your insurer declares it totaled.

Below, we answered some common questions from Kansas drivers about car insurance policies in the Sunflower State.
Kansas drivers pay an average of $110 per month for car insurance, according to Compare.com data. Liability-only coverage costs an average of $74 per month, and full coverage costs $146 per month.
State Farm offers the cheapest auto insurance in Kansas, with rates starting at $51 per month, according to Compare.com data.
It depends. Several factors, including your address, age, and driving history, determine how much you pay for car insurance in Kansas. Kansas drivers pay an average of $110 per month for auto coverage. That’s compared to the U.S. national average of $140 per month.
Kansas requires drivers to have $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident of bodily injury liability coverage, and $25,000 per accident of property damage coverage. Drivers must also have personal injury protection and uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage.
It depends. The best auto insurer for you hinges on your unique driver profile, needs, and budget. That said, our top picks for Kansas car insurance include Allstate, Farmers, and Auto-Owners. Each company stands out for a mix of strong coverage options, helpful local agents, mobile tools, and flexible programs, based on our research.
It depends on your situation. Most insurance experts, including the Kansas Department of Insurance, recommend purchasing more than the state’s minimum limits. Liability-only coverage likely won’t provide enough protection if you cause a serious accident.
For example, if you hit another car and cause $55,000 worth of damage, liability-only insurance would only cover $25,000, leaving you paying the remaining $30,000 out of pocket. Lenders also typically require you to buy collision and comprehensive coverage if you finance or lease your car.
