How much does it cost to insure an Acura?

Of course, your exact premium will vary based on several factors, including the model and vehicle age, as well as details specific to you and the insurance provider you choose. Here are some of the key considerations that can influence Acura RDX insurance rates: 

• Crash rate statistics: The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) named three Acura models, including the RDX, 2024 Top Safety Picks. Better demonstrated crash outcomes may yield lower insurance premiums as the risk to passengers in the event of an accident is lower. 
• Safety features: The IIHS rated the 2024 Acura RDX as "good" in all crashworthiness and crash avoidance categories except for the front crash prevention system, which earned an “acceptable” rating. The 2024 model features AcuraWatch crash-prevention technology, including pedestrian detection, lane assist and traffic sign detection.
• Price of parts: Acura is actually owned by Honda, and most models are made in the U.S., Mexico and Canada. The Acura RDX is predominantly manufactured in Ohio. This may make parts more readily available, lowering the average cost of repairs and therefore insurance.
