How much are Ford Fusion car insurance rates?

For the 2020 model, Ford Fusion insurance rates average $2,256 a year, or about $188 each month. You can expect to pay about $104 more per year to insure a Ford Fusion compared to the midsize cars average rate, and $20 less per year than the $2,276 average for all vehicles.

The following infographic shows how average 2020 Ford Fusion car insurance rates can change based on different driver ages and policy deductible levels.

The image above illustrates two key car insurance concepts:

First, younger drivers pay more for car insurance. This is really kind of common sense, as younger drivers tend to cause more accidents and be less attentive when driving.

A 20-year-old driver can expect to pay around $4,554 per year to insure a 2020 Fusion, while a 40-year-old driver pays only $2,256 per year. This is a difference of $2,298 per year.

This downward trend tends to continue through about age 65, at which point rates start to creep back up. As we age, our reaction times are reduced, and the risk of having an accident increases.

The second concept detailed in the graphic deals with your choice of policy deductible. A low deductible means you have to pay less out-of-pocket if you have a claim. A high deductible means you are willing to shoulder more of the expense to repair your car.

The relationship between car insurance rates and deductibles is an inverse one. This means that as your deductible goes up, the cost of your policy goes down.

In the graphic above, the average 40-year-old driver could save around $662 per year by choosing a $1,000 physical damage coverage deductible rather than a $250 deductible.

Raising your policy deductible is a good way to cut your cost. However, you will need to make sure you have the financial resources available to make repairs if you do have a claim.

The chart below shows average car insurance rates for both male and female teen drivers on a 2020 Ford Fusion insured for full coverage.

Why is Ford Fusion insurance so high?

The reason Ford Fusion insurance is so expensive when compared to other similar models is primarily due to the extra cost of liability insurance. The Ford Fusion tends to have above-average liability insurance claims, especially for personal injury and bodily injury claims.

The hybrid model tends to also have much higher than average collision and property damage claim amounts. No Fusion model has better than average overall loss experience for the data available for 2017-19.

As shown in the previous chart for average insurance cost for teenage drivers, if you happen to be insuring a teen on a Fusion, it’s going to be quite expensive. That’s not exclusive to the Fusion, however, as insuring any vehicle with a teenager as the primary driver will be considerably more expensive than insuring an older, more experienced driver.

Additional Rates and Information

Some additional rates and special tips how you can save money on Fusion insurance:

• More discounts mean cheaper Ford Fusion insurance rates. Discounts may be available if the insureds are claim-free, are accident-free, sign their policy early, insure multiple vehicles on the same policy, or many other discounts which could save the average driver as much as $282 per year on the cost of insuring a Fusion.
• Raising deductibles makes insurance more affordable. Raising deductibles from $500 to $1,000 could save around $222 per year for a 40-year-old driver and $424 per year for a 20-year-old driver.
• Low deductibles make insurance more expensive. Dropping your deductibles from $500 to $250 could cost an additional $230 per year for a 40-year-old driver and $450 per year for a 20-year-old driver.
• Save money due to your profession. Some car insurance companies offer discounts for specific occupations like firefighters, scientists, high school and elementary teachers, accountants, nurses, and others. If you qualify for this occupational discount, you could save between $50 and $158 on your car insurance bill, depending on your age.
• Be a careful driver and pay less. Too many at-fault accidents will increase rates, potentially as much as $814 per year for a 30-year-old driver and even as much as $442 per year for a 60-year-old driver.
• A good driving record means cheaper rates. In order to get the best Fusion insurance rates, it makes good sense to be a safe driver. As a matter of fact, just one or two minor traffic citations could possibly increase the price of a policy by up to $450 per year. So be a good driver and save!
