Who has the Cheapest Car Insurance for a Lincoln Navigator?

With car insurance as low as just $33 per month, Shelter Mutual is the next lowest auto insurance company.

What Factors Affect Car Insurance Rates for a Lincoln Navigator?

There are an array of factors that car insurance carriers take a look at to calculate how much they charge you -- and each carrier uses a different algorithm, so there's not one single company that's the cheapest for every Navigator driver.

The sections below show a variety of things insurance companies use to choose rates:

Vehicle Age

The Lincoln Navigator has been around for a while, so vehicle age may play a big role in what you end up paying for car insurance. Typically, newer cars are going to cost more to insure because they're worth more, however, as time goes on and Navigators begin to depreciate, insurance costs will gradually decrease.

Based on the information in the table above, the Lincoln Navigator follows this trend, as the cheapest models to insure are those that are 6 to 7 years old, while on average, the most expensive models are Navigators that are 1 year old or less.

Your Age

Age is another factor that plays a significant role in how much you pay for auto insurance. As you can see above, teenage Navigator drivers have higher prices than drivers who have more experience on the road. In this case, drivers under 18 pay more than twice as much as those 25 or older.

Insurance prices continue to go lower as you get older, with the cheapest age group being 45-54 for Navigator drivers.

Your Gender

You may not know, but insurance is usually more expensive for men than for women. This is because women are less likely to get into collisions and get speeding tickets, which decreases the chances of an insurance claim. Surprisingly, when it comes to Navigator drivers specifically, men pay about 3% less than women a month for car insurance.

Where You Live

It may be obvious that factors like how old you are and what vehicle you drive play a role in your auto insurance premiums, but did you know that where you live can be equally important? Since insurance is regulated at the state level, rates differ quite a bit depending on what state you live in.

For example, the average Lincoln Navigator owner in New York pays around $177 monthly for liability coverage. Meanwhile, the same Californian driver will pay less than half of that price, on average. The chart shows average prices for the 10 largest states by population, just to give you a good idea of how much rates can change from state to state.

Lincoln Navigator Car Insurance Discounts

Whatever your home state, your car, or your age, it's always a good idea to take advantage of as many auto insurance discounts as possible.

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

• Vehicle safety discounts for having a vehicle with certain safety features (like anti-lock brakes or air bags) or one with higher than average safety ratings
• Defensive driving discounts for taking a defensive driving class from a certified school or institution
• Multi-policy discounts for using the same insurance carrier for both your home and car insurance
• Pay-in-full discounts for drivers who choose to pay their entire policy price at once, rather than by monthly payments

These are just a few of the discounts out there. Sometimes, the best rates come from simply having a favorable insurance profile, which means having a clean driving record or not having any recent insurance claims.

While you may not be able to control every variable insurance carriers use to calculate premiums (like some of the ones mentioned above), there are quite a few you can control. Below are just a few of the variables you can use to your favor when it comes to saving some cash:

Your Driving Record

You've most likely seen ads from car insurance companies promoting hefty discounts for responsible drivers. It shouldn't come as a surprise that if you get a ticket for speeding or get into an accident, auto insurance prices will get higher. But you're probably wondering exactly how much these infractions will cost you.

If you look at the table above, you'll notice that accidents will usually cost Navigator drivers more than tickets, but both will cause a significant increase in rates. Lincoln Navigator drivers with a single accident on their record pay an average of $88 each month (up $11 from the $77/mo. overall average), while drivers with one ticket will pay about $85 per month. Those who have more than one of either violation will end up paying even more.

How Much You Drive

Another factor that plays a role in your car insurance premiums is the amount of miles you drive annually. Those who are on the roads less often are less likely to get into accidents, so they'll typically be offered lower rates. Above, you can see that Lincoln Navigator owners who drive fewer than 2,500 miles every year pay about $73 a month for auto insurance, while those who put 10,000 miles or more on their cars pay $75.

But if you don't drive much because you work from home or have a second vehicle, it may be worth reviewing usage-based or pay-per-mile insurance. With these kinds of coverage, you pay a small base rate each month, with your final monthly bill being calculated based on the number of miles you drove.
