Who has the Cheapest Car Insurance for a Hyundai Genesis?

If you're searching for a new car insurance policy for your Hyundai Genesis, you may be most interested in which carrier offers the cheapest rates. Even though there will never be one company that offers the cheapest prices for everyone, ACG offers the lowest average rates for liability only coverage, with rates as low as $25 per month. The runner up for most affordable rates is Acuity, with car insurance policies starting sometimes as low as $26 a month.

Dashers, Hugo, and Aspire round out the rest of the top 5 list. However, just because these five carriers offer the cheapest average rates doesn't necessarily mean they'll give you the best rates for your Hyundai Genesis.

Insurance companies take many variables into consideration when calculating how much to charge you. Because every driver is different, there's only one way to ensure you get the cheapest prices, and that's by getting personalized quotes and comparing rates from a whole bunch of insurance carriers.

What Factors Affect Car Insurance Rates for a Hyundai Genesis?

As we mentioned above, there are a whole range of things that auto insurance companies examine to determine how much they charge for car insurance -- and each carrier weighs certain attributes more than others, so there's not one company that's the lowest for every Genesis driver.

The following sections show a wide array of factors insurance carriers use to calculate rates:

Vehicle Age

Hyundai has been making the Genesis for quite some time -- and that means the car's age may play a big role in how much you'll pay for auto insurance. Typically, older cars will be cheaper to insure because they're worth less than newer models, and as cars get older, insurance costs will gradually go lower.

According to the table above, the Hyundai Genesis does not follow this trend, as the cheapest models to insure are those that are 1 year old or less, while the most expensive models are 8 to 10 years old, on average.

Your Age

Your age is another factor that makes a significant difference in how much car insurance companies will charge you for a policy. Based on the information in the table above, young Genesis drivers pay much more compared to those with more experience on the road. In this case, drivers aged between 18 and 24 pay $25 more than those 25 or older.

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

Your Gender

Men tend to pay more for auto insurance than women. This is because women are less likely to get tickets and get into accidents, which lowers the chances of an insurance claim. The Hyundai Genesis sticks to the norm, where men pay about $98 monthly for insurance, while women pay around $94.

Where You Live

You were probably already aware that things like how old you are and what vehicle you drive play a role in your car insurance premiums, but you may not realize that where you live can be just as important. Auto insurance is regulated on the state level and not nationally, so rates can fluctuate quite a bit from state to state.

For example, the average Hyundai Genesis owner in New York pays about $216 per month for liability coverage, while the same Californian driver will pay less than a third of that price, on average. The chart above shows average prices for the top 10 most populous states, just to give you a good idea of how much rates can change across states.

Hyundai Genesis Car Insurance Discounts

Whatever how old you are, what state you call home, or which car you drive, it's always a good idea to take advantage of as many insurance discounts as possible when shopping around for a new policy.

Even though all car insurance carriers offer their own unique discounts, there are a few that you'll find with most insurers. These include things like:

• Multi-policy discounts for using the same insurance carrier for both your home and auto insurance
• Vehicle safety discounts for having a vehicle with higher than average safety ratings or one with certain safety features (like anti-lock brakes or air bags)
• Pay-in-full discounts for choosing to pay your entire policy price at once, rather than in monthly installments
• Multi-vehicle discounts for having more than one car on your auto policy

There are countless ways to save money on your auto insurance if you know where to look. Some of the best ways to save are just by having a good driving record and positive insurance profile.

While you may not be able to control every variable insurance companies consider to calculate premiums (like some of the ones mentioned above), you do have a say over some of them. Below are just a few of the ones you can use to your advantage in order to save on car insurance:

Your Driving Record

You've probably observed ads from auto insurance carriers promoting hefty discounts for good drivers. It should be no surprise that your insurance prices will get higher if you get into an accident or get tickets for speeding. But you're probably wondering exactly how much these infractions will cost you.

You can see from the table above that accidents will usually cost Genesis drivers more than tickets, but both will result in above average rates. Hyundai Genesis drivers with a single accident on their record pay an average of $133 a month (up $36 from the $97/mo. overall average), while drivers with one ticket will pay about $106 a month. Drivers with multiple kinds of either violation will end up paying even more.

How Much You Drive

The total distance you drive each year affects your auto insurance premiums. Those who drive less often have fewer opportunities to get into an accident, so they'll typically get less expensive rates. Based on the table above, you can see that Hyundai Genesis owners who drive fewer than 2,500 miles every year pay an average of $78 monthly for car insurance, while those who put 10,000 miles or more on their cars pay $104.

But if you don't drive much because have a second vehicle or you work from home, it may be worth learning about pay-per-mile or usage-based insurance. With these kinds of policies, you pay a small monthly amount, and your final monthly bill is calculated based on the number of miles you drove.

Hyundai Genesis Insurance FAQs

Is a Hyundai Genesis expensive to insure?

When compared to the national average of all vehicles, premiums come in on the more expensive end of the spectrum. Liability insurance runs an average of $97 a month, while full coverage will cost you around $192.

How can I get the best price on car insurance for my Hyundai Genesis?

The only way to ensure you're getting the cheapest price on auto insurance is to check prices regularly and compare quotes from multiple companies. Over time, your driver profile changes, so it's a good rule of thumb to review quotes every 6 months or so. Luckily, sites like Compare.com let you compare prices from a range of carriers at once, meaning you can find the lowest rates (or guarantee you already have the best deal) for free.

Does the color of my Hyundai Genesis affect my insurance rates?

You may have heard the old adage that it costs more to insure a red car than cars of other colors, but that's actually not the case. Although there are many factors insurance companies examine when they decide how much to charge you for car insurance, your Hyundai Genesis's color is not factored into that equation.

Do I need to have insurance before I buy a Hyundai Genesis?

You'll need to have an insurance policy in place before you can legally driver your new (or new to you) Genesis off the dealership lot. Some dealerships will offer you an auto insurance policy as part of the buying process, but the best thing to do when buying a a new car is to talk with your auto insurance carrier before you buy.

What car insurance discounts can I get for my Hyundai Genesis?

You will find a wide array of different discounts out there for insurance. Many of them (like "multi-vehicle discounts" and "pay-in-full discounts") are more based on you than the vehicle you drive, but if your Genesis has safety features like airbags, anti-lock brakes, anti-theft systems, and other features, it may qualify for certain discounts. The only way to know is to reach out to your insurance company and ask about their discounts.
