Popular vehicles and the cost of insurance
The car insurance rates mentioned previously take all 2024 vehicle models and average them, which is handy when making broad comparisons like the average cost difference for different locations or driver risk profiles.
Perhaps a more useful metric when comparing car insurance cost is to look at rates for specific models. The chart below shows average car insurance cost for a small sample of popular cars, pickups, and SUVs in Wasilla and surrounding areas.
Vehicle models popular with drivers in Wasilla tend to be compact or midsize sedans like the Nissan Sentra and Honda Accord and compact or midsize SUVs like the Toyota RAV4, Honda CR-V, and Jeep Grand Cherokee.
Some additional popular vehicles from other segments include luxury SUVs like the Infiniti QX60, Acura MDX, and Lexus RX 350, luxury cars like the Tesla Model S, BMW 530i, and Lexus ES 350, and pickup trucks like the Chevy Silverado, Ford F-150, and Ford Ranger.
When these popular models are compared to the previous table of the top 30 vehicles with the cheapest insurance, most of these models cost more to insure than the cheapest vehicles.
Higher auto insurance premiums could be caused by a higher sticker price, like a Chevrolet Corvette with an average purchase price of $69,995 or a Cadillac Escalade which has an average cost of $82,790.
Another reason rates are higher on some models could be an increased chance of medical or liability insurance claims like a GMC Sierra 2500 pickup, GMC Yukon XL, or Chevy Camaro. Each vehicle has a historical claim severity and frequency rating that can be used as a factor when determining rates.
