Supplementary S4 insurance rates and insights

Other noteworthy insights about S4 insurance rates include:

  • Safer drivers pay lower rates. Having at-fault accidents will cost you more, potentially by an extra $3,076 per year for a 20-year-old driver and even $496 per year for a 60-year-old driver.
  • Car insurance is cheaper with higher deductibles. Boosting your physical damage deductibles from $500 to $1,000 could save around $382 per year for a 40-year-old driver and $748 per year for a 20-year-old driver.
  • The lower the deductibles, the higher the cost. Decreasing your policy deductibles from $500 to $250 could cost an additional $396 per year for a 40-year-old driver and $788 per year for a 20-year-old driver.
  • Your employment could save you money. The vast majority of auto insurance companies offer discounts for certain occupations like accountants, lawyers, high school and elementary teachers, nurses, scientists, college professors, and others. By working in a profession that qualifies for this discount, you could save between $66 and $185 on your annual insurance cost, depending on the coverage levels.
  • Policy discounts equal cheaper S4 insurance rates. Discounts may be available if the policyholders insure their home and car with the same company, insure multiple vehicles on the same policy, are good students, take a defensive driving course, or many other discounts which could save the average driver as much as $370 per year on the cost of insuring an Audi S4.
  • S4 insurance is expensive for high-risk drivers. For a 40-year-old driver, being required to buy a high-risk insurance policy could end up with a rate increase of $2,608 or more per year.
