Will The Type of Car I Buy Affect My Insurance Premiums?

So, you’ve had your eye on that sweet little red sports car. When trying to determine which car to purchase, keep in mind that the vehicle that you choose can have a direct influence on how much your car insurance premiums will be. Here is a list of vehicles that typically will increase your insurance costs.

In some cases, these vehicles can cost more to insure:

Sports cars
High performance vehicles
Luxury vehicles
Vehicles equipped with added technology features
Large SUV’s
Very small vehicles
Vehicles known to have a history of theft

If you are concerned about how your new car will impact your insurance premiums, call Insurance Doctor. We can give you the best possible insurance price on the policy that best suits your insurance needs.
