You guys are trying to rationalize the new premium but, there’s nothing rational about it. Your insurance company just took the opportunity to raise your rate and increase their profit because they can!

Yup. I was paying $170 a month to cover my old Toyota Tundra without any accidents or speeding tickets and excellent credit. At renewal, Geico increased it to $363 a month. They said it’s due to inflation and cost of insuring vehicles in a high crime city like Houston. I bet they’re also increasing their profits too because the jump is way too drastic

I always take into account insurance costs when cross shopping cars. Some insight from the last time I was car shopping: Insurance quotes were consistently $100-$150/month higher for EVERY hybrid variant over a gas variant of the same car. I also noticed that sedans were significantly more expensive versus a CUV. A base model LE gas Camry was more expensive to insurance than a Lexus NX 350. This is one reason why going Hybrid isn't all sunshine and rainbows.

Actuary here. A big factor is indeed sedan vs SUV. The hybrid-ness, not so much. Run a quote on a RAV4 Hybrid and that will disprove the theory. However, Camry drivers do seem to pay more than other sedans for sure. Rates come from historical records on those types of vehicles, combined with driving history and other rating variables. My big theory is the common ownership of a Camry and lots of experience of wrecks from those with a Camry (I would guess an Accord/Accord Hybrid would also be expensive to insure). Why specifically the Camry would need more of an in-depth look, but I don’t do auto Actuarial work.

There are so many variables that go into an insurance premium. Driver's age, sex, driving infractions, accidents, the size of your deductible, the amount of coverage, where you live, the type of vehicle, and the safety features it has. Vehicles with higher injury and death rates, and parts costs, will result in a higher premium. You can't pin down a specific rate for any car. It's also going to vary from one insurance company to another.

Policy Term effective 2/24/2024 meant they calculated the 2024 prospective premium around Oct 2023 vs Policy Term effective 7/1/2024 meant they calculated the 2025 prospective premium at the current market timeline (which is equivalent to a 30% increase).

The depreciation on your plug-in BMW may be part of the reason the Camry costs more to insure-the Camry may simply retain more of its value than the BMW, so if there is an accident with it, an insurer is at greater risk of having to pay more for a less-depreciated Camry than it does for a more heavily depreciated BMW.

Seriously, that is strange. Thanks for pointing that out. Wondering if the hybrids are more expensive to repair. (Not sure what is in your BMW). Rumor has it that insurance companies "get their numbers" via a big dart board in a secret back room. Just goes to show that checking with your insurance carrier before purchasing or going hard on shopping, is a good idea so you know what you're getting into. I compared my '14 Forester XT vs a '24 Forester with 2.5L, and it was actually a tiny bit cheaper to insure the '24. (In the end, I couldn't warm up to the wheezy 2.5 drivetrain after having the XT, so I'm still hunting.) Keep up the good work, gents, and have fun.

You simply got your rates at different times. You had locked in a lower rate for the term on the other vehicles and the new vehicle reflects newer insurance premium increases. I doubt insurance companies give discounts on SUVs for being “safer.” All they care about is cost of claims, theft claims, collision claims, injury claims including the injuries you cause to the people in the other vehicle you hit if you are at fault. So, a bigger vehicle would not necessarily have lower insurance rates because it increases claims costs they are responsible for on other vehicles drivers of those vehicles hit.
