The Highest Insurance Vehicles
Your dream car may be one of the highest insurance vehicles on the market.
The Audi R8 Spyder was named as the highest insurance vehicle you can buy.
Some vehicles that we all dream of driving one day are, unfortunately, the same ones that have the highest insurance premiums. This is something that is a good thing to know in advance of purchasing the vehicle, in the case you can barely afford the vehicle itself.
If you were to purchase the vehicle that has the highest insurance premium on average, you are looking at $3,384 a year just for insurance. If you have a bad driving record, you are looking at a premium that is even higher.
Why Do These Vehicles Have Such High Insurance?
The vehicles that made the list are some of the most expensive vehicles on the market today. This means that if they get into an accident that they are much more expensive to repair or total out than other cars on the market.
Also, these vehicles are generally associated with having more accidents, and accidents at higher rates of speeds; which means costly injuries to other parties.
Rankings of the Highest Insurance Vehicles
It’s always good to know in advance how high your insurance bill will be for any new vehicle you are purchasing. This is why it is important to call your insurance agent or insurance company for a quote on how much your new insurance will be BEFORE you purchase that new vehicle. You may find that the new car payment you thought you could afford is no longer practical when you add in a higher insurance payment on top of it.
