Car insurance for Hyundai

How much does it cost to insure a Hyundai?

Hyundai car insurance costs depend on several things, including the price of parts, the cost of repairs and the car’s safety features. Your premium will also vary based on your personal rating factors, your annual mileage and the cost of living in your area.

• Price of parts and repairs: The cost of insuring a Hyundai depends in part on the cost of the vehicle’s parts and repairs. Repair costs may vary based on the specific model you own and the average labor costs in your area. In general, Hyundais are not as expensive to repair as higher-end models. 
• Safety ratings and features: Insurance companies typically charge lower rates for vehicles with advanced safety features and strong safety ratings.

Hyundai features that impact insurance costs 

Many newer Hyundai models are equipped with safety features and technology that might reduce the cost of auto insurance. Here are some of the most common Hyundai features that might affect your premium.

• Hyundai SmartSense: This package of safety features is included in many newer Hyundai models and may help you avoid accidents by monitoring the area around your vehicle for other cars, pedestrians and obstacles.
• Curtain airbags:  Most new Hyundais come equipped with six airbags, including curtain airbags for side protection. 
• Electronic Brake-force Distribution (EBD): This common feature in newer Hyundais adjusts the brake pressure and distribution based on the number of passengers in the vehicle to more safely and efficiently come to a stop.
• Highway Driving Assist: Many new Hyundai models come with Highway Driving Assist. When activated, it can automatically keep the vehicle centered between lane lines and maintain a safe distance from other vehicles on the road.
• Rear Cross-Traffic Collision Avoidance Assist: Hyundai has introduced sensors that can detect vehicles that may approach from either side in blind spots and will automatically brake if needed.

Other car insurance coverage for Hyundais

Your state’s minimum coverage is enough to let you drive legally, but most insurance experts recommend purchasing additional coverage types and higher policy limits to fully protect your investment in your car. Some additional coverage types you may want to consider include:

• Collision and comprehensive coverage: These two coverage types are typically required if you have a loan or lease on your vehicle and add financial protection for damage to your own car from an accident or other covered event, like vandalism.
• Gap insurance: This option is designed to help pay your outstanding loan amount should your financed vehicle be stolen or totaled.
• OEM coverage: This type of coverage allows original equipment manufacturer (OEM) replacement parts to be used when repairing your vehicle after a covered claim.
• Roadside assistance coverage: This endorsement may help you get towing, lockout services or other types of assistance on the road if your vehicle breaks down.
• New car replacement coverage: This option is designed to pay for a new car if your current vehicle is stolen or totaled within a certain timeframe. Usually, only vehicles that are a few model years old will qualify.
• Uninsured motorist and underinsured motorist coverage: These two coverage types cover you for damage caused by drivers with no insurance or not enough insurance to pay for your damages.
