The table above that contains 50 vehicle rankings probably isn’t the best way to show the full picture of the cost of auto insurance. Considering we track over 700 vehicles, a lot of models get left out. So let’s rethink this and show the cheapest models in a more useful way.
This next section further discusses the average cost of car insurance for each vehicle segment. These rates should give you a better understanding of the types of vehicles that have the overall least expensive auto insurance rates in Jersey City. Then the following six sections break out and rank the cheapest insurance rates for individual models for each segment.
Jersey City auto insurance rates by automotive segment
If you’re considering buying a different vehicle, it’s useful to know which kinds of vehicles have more favorable car insurance rates. For example, you may be curious if midsize cars are cheaper to insure than full-size cars or if sports cars cost less to insure than luxury cars.
The chart below shows the average cost of car insurance rates in Jersey City for different vehicle segments. From a segment comparison perspective, compact and midsize SUVs, vans, and midsize pickups tend to have the least expensive rates, with high-performance exotic models having the highest average insurance cost.
Rates by different vehicle segments can be used for blanket comparisons, but auto insurance cost varies greatly within each vehicle category shown in the previous chart.
For example, in the small luxury car segment, rates range from the Acura Integra costing $2,018 per year to the BMW M340i at $2,772 per year, a difference of $754 within that segment. For another example, in the large truck segment, the average insurance cost ranges from the Nissan Titan costing $2,120 per year up to the Toyota Tundra costing $2,702 per year, a difference of $582 within that segment.
In the upcoming sections, we eliminate much of the variability by looking at car insurance cost from the perspective of the vehicle model.

Smart drivers in Jersey City are often looking to save money on car insurance, so run through the tips in the list below and maybe you can save a few bucks when buying auto insurance.
- Pay small claims out-of-pocket. Most insurance companies reduce rates a little for not having any claims. Auto insurance is intended to be used for large financial hits, not nickel-and-dime type claims.

- Lower policy cost by raising deductibles. Raising your policy deductibles from $500 to $1,000 could save around $300 per year for a 40-year-old driver and $588 per year for a 20-year-old driver.
- Avoid traffic tickets to pay less. In order to get the cheapest car insurance in Jersey City, it pays to be a safe driver. As a matter of fact, just a couple speeding tickets have the potential to increase insurance cost as much as $604 per year. Major misdemeanors like failing to stop at the scene of an accident could raise rates by an additional $2,106 or more.
- You don’t have to stick with the same company. Taking a couple of minutes every year or so to get some free car insurance quotes can save more money than you might think. Companies change rates often and you are not locked into any one company.
