How Much is Car Insurance for an Audi A5?

If you look at the table above, you'll see that compared to other vehicles, Audi A5 insurance prices are above average. A5 drivers can expect to pay about $202 a month for full coverage, which has comprehensive and collision coverages in addition to liability, and about $76 per month for liability only insurance (our guide, "State Minimum vs. Full Coverage", can provide more details on these different types of insurance).

When you compare it to other models, the A5 is slightly more expensive, with rates around 6% higher than Audi's other vehicle offerings. But A5 coverage runs close to average when compared to other vehicles of a similar body style, with full coverage insurance prices coming in at $25 higher than other cars and liability insurance premiums at $7 cheaper.

Who has the Cheapest Car Insurance for an Audi A5?

Browsing for an auto insurance policy for your Audi A5? You may want to know which carrier offers the most affordable rates. Although premiums can fluctuate pretty dramatically depending on your driver profile, the cheapest average rates for liability only insurance are sometimes as little as $41 a month from Workmens. The runner up for lowest rates is Clearcover, with auto insurance policies starting as low as just $42 monthly.

Mercury, Commonwealth Casualty, and Mapfre round out the end of the top 5 list. However, just because these five companies offer the cheapest average rates doesn't necessarily mean they'll give you the best rates for your Audi A5.

After all, your results might be different, since insurance carriers look at a multitude of different things when calculating premiums. By reviewing quotes from several car insurance companies at once, you can guarantee you're finding the most affordable rate.

What Factors Affect Car Insurance Rates for an Audi A5?

There are a bunch of attributes that insurance carriers reference to determine how much they charge for a policy -- and every company uses a different algorithm, so there's not one carrier that's the lowest for everyone.

Keep reading to learn which variables car insurance companies look at and how they affect your final rate:

Vehicle Age

The Audi A5 has been around for a while -- that means vehicle age will likely play a role in what you end up paying for auto insurance. Typically, it costs less to insure older cars because they're worth less than newer models, and as time goes on and A5s begin to depreciate, insurance costs will gradually go down.

From the table above, you can see the Audi A5 is an outlier, as the most expensive models to insure are those that are 11 to 14 years old, while on average, the cheapest A5s are 1 year old or less.

Your Age

Age makes a big difference in how much insurance carriers will charge for auto insurance. In the table above, you'll see that those with more experience pay less than the youngest drivers. Audi A5 drivers under 18 actually pay over three times as much as those 25 or older.

Insurance prices continue to get lower as you get older, with the cheapest age group being 65 years and older for A5 drivers.

Your Gender

Because women are less likely to get into accidents and get tickets, they run a lower risk of filing a claim with insurance. So, insurance companies will tend to offer women more affordable rates. Surprisingly, when it comes to A5 drivers specifically, men pay about $5 less than women each month for car insurance.

Where You Live

You may already know that factors like how old you are and what vehicle you drive play a role in your insurance prices, but did you know that where you live matters just as much? Because auto insurance is regulated on the state level rather than nationally, rates can vary quite a bit from state to state.

For example, the average Audi A5 owner from New York pays around $151 per month for liability coverage, while the same driver from California will pay less than 50% of that price, on average. The chart shows average premiums for the 10 largest states by population, just to give you a good idea of how much prices can change from state to state.

Audi A5 Car Insurance Discounts

Whatever your age, your home state, or your car, using as many discounts as possible when it comes to your car insurance policy is always in your best interest.

While no two insurance carriers offer the same exact discounts, there are a few different ones that you'll find with most companies. These include discounts like:

• Vehicle safety discounts for having a vehicle with higher safety ratings or one with certain safety features (like anti-lock brakes or air bags)
• Defensive driving discounts for taking a defensive driving class from an accredited school or institution
• Multi-policy discounts for getting both your home and auto policies from the same insurance company
• Pay-in-full discounts for drivers who agree to pay their entire policy price up front, rather than by monthly payments

While discounts are always a good way to save money on your auto insurance, some of the best ways to save are just by having a good driving history and positive insurance profile.

Although you can't control every single aspect of your car insurance profile (like some of the pieces we mentioned above), you can influence some of it. Below are just a few of the variables you can use to your favor when it comes to saving money:

Your Driving Record

You've no doubt seen ads from auto insurance carriers posting hefty savings for responsible drivers. It should be no surprise that your insurance rates will increase if you get a ticket for speeding or get into an accident. But exactly how much is it going to cost you for these infractions?

As you can see, accidents will usually cost A5 drivers more than tickets, but both will result in a raise in rates. Audi A5 drivers with one accident on their record pay an average of $88 every month (up $12 from the $76/mo. overall average), while drivers with a single ticket will pay about $79 monthly. The rates only go up the more collisions you have or tickets you get.

How Much You Drive

Another variable that affects your car insurance premiums is the amount of miles you drive each year. Drivers who are on the roads less often are less likely to get tickets, so they'll usually end up paying less for insurance. Above, you can see that Audi A5 owners who drive fewer than 2,500 miles per year pay about $38 a month for auto insurance, while those who put 10,000 miles or more on their cars pay $76.

But if you drive a limited amount, you might consider learning about usage-based or pay-per-mile car insurance policies. With these kinds of policies, you pay a small monthly amount, and your final monthly bill is calculated based on how many miles you drove.

If you're considering making an Audi A5 your next car, it can pay off to do your due diligence. Auto insurance is just one cost that comes with a new car purchase, but it's certainly one that's worth thinking about carefully.

Take a look at the table below to see how the Audi A5 compares:

As you can see, the Audi A5 is pretty much in line with the average vehicle price here in the U.S. The national average vehicle price is $46,192, and the A5 comes in close to that at $43,500.

Likewise, auto insurance prices are pretty average when compared to the rest of the vehicle market. Full coverage insurance for an Audi A5 is about $65 a month cheaper than average, while liability only coverage is per month.

When it comes to usage, Audi A5 owners drive about the same amount annually as the national average, with 10,873 miles a year compared to 11,617 for all vehicles.

Audi A5 Insurance FAQs

Is an Audi A5 expensive to insure?

Liability insurance runs an average of $76 a month, while full coverage will cost you around $202. The Audi A5 is relatively expensive to insure compared to the average car.

How can I get the best price on car insurance for my Audi A5?

There's only one way to make sure you're getting the lowest rates -- regularly shopping around and comparing quotes from numerous carriers. Over time, your driver profile changes, which could change your rates, so it's recommended that you get quotes every 6 months or so. Luckily, sites like Compare.com let you compare rates from multiple companies at once, meaning you can find the cheapest rates (or guarantee you already have the best deal) in just a few minutes.

Does the color of my Audi A5 affect my insurance premiums?

You've probably heard the old adage that red cars cost more to insure, but that's actually not the case. Even though there are multiple factors car insurance carriers look at when they offer prices, the color of your vehicle isn't one of them.

Do I need to have insurance before I buy an Audi A5?

Before you can legally drive your new (or new to you) car off the dealership lot, you'll need to have a valid insurance policy. Some dealerships will offer you an insurance policy as part of the buying process, but your best bet is letting your car insurance company know before you buy.

What car insurance discounts can I get for my Audi A5?

There are a ton of discounts out there for auto insurance. Many of them (like "multi-policy discounts" and "pay-in-full discounts") are based less on your Audi A5 and more on you, but if your A5 has safety features like anti-lock brakes, airbags, anti-theft systems, and other features, it may be eligible for certain discounts. The only way to know is to talk with your insurance agent and ask about their discounts.
