As shown in the chart, rates for a 20-year-old driver are much higher than other age groups. Younger drivers pay higher car insurance rates on any vehicle, not just the Jeep Wrangler.

Insurance rates for teen drivers on a Jeep Wrangler are even higher. An 18-year-old male driver rated on a 2023 Wrangler average $6,402 per year, and rates for a 16-year-old driver average an astonishing $7,466 per year.

There are ways to save money when insuring younger drivers on a Wrangler, however. Older models cost less to insure, and raising deductibles is another way to save. As a last resort, you can consider dropping full coverage altogether and insuring with just liability insurance.

The following table shows the average insurance rates for a Jeep Wrangler from the 2013 model year up to the 2023 model year.

Jeep Wrangler Insurance Rates by Model Year

The rates in the table make a couple of assumptions. First, average rates are determined by using a 40-year-old male driver with a good driving record. Second, physical damage deductibles are $500. Different driver ages will change rates, as will lower or higher deductibles. We touched on that in the first chart.

Other factors that will influence car insurance rates include having a speeding ticket or two, any prior at-fault accidents, the exact model of Wrangler you’re insuring, where you live, the company you use, and even your credit level in some states.

The list below details some of the factors and situations that can impact the rate you pay for Wrangler insurance.

  • The older you are, the lower your insurance rates are. The difference in insurance rates for a Jeep Wrangler between a 60-year-old driver ($1,758 per year) and a 30-year-old driver ($2,032 per year) is $274, or a savings of 14.5%.
  • Be a safe driver and save on insurance. Too frequent at-fault accidents can raise rates, possibly by an additional $936 per year for a 30-year-old driver and even as much as $662 per year for a 60-year-old driver.
  • Improve your credit to save money. In states that have insurance regulations that allow a driver’s credit information to be used as a rating factor, insureds with excellent credit scores of 800+ could save as much as $306 per year when compared to a lower credit score of 670-739. Conversely, a poor credit score could cost up to $355 more per year.
  • Get a discount from your employer. Just about all auto insurance companies offer policy discounts for being employed in professions like doctors, scientists, law enforcement, members of the military, nurses, and other occupations. If you qualify for this occupational discount, you may save between $59 and $178 on your annual insurance cost, depending on the age of the driver.
  • Obey the law to get lower insurance rates. If you want the most economical Wrangler insurance rates, it pays off to be a safe driver. A few minor traffic violations have the consequence of raising insurance costs by at least $540 per year. Serious infractions such as DWI and driving without insurance could raise rates by an additional $1,870 or more.
  • Higher deductibles lower insurance costs. Raising your physical damage coverage deductibles from $500 to $1,000 could save around $254 per year for a 40-year-old driver and $506 per year for a 20-year-old driver.
  • Decreasing deductibles cost more money. Cutting your deductibles from $500 to $250 could cost an additional $268 per year for a 40-year-old driver and $540 per year for a 20-year-old driver.
  • Qualify for policy discounts to lower auto insurance costs. Discounts may be available if the policyholder drives a vehicle with safety or anti-theft features, is a senior citizen, is a good student, is a member of the military or a federal employee, or other policy discounts which could save the average driver as much as $334 per year on their insurance cost.

Jeep Wrangler insurance rates by trim level

With Jeep Wrangler car insurance cost ranging from $1,772 to $2,156 annually on average, the cheapest model to insure is the Sport 2-Door. The second cheapest trim level to insure is the Willys Sport 2-Door at $1,832 per year.

Expect to budget at least $148 per month to insure a Wrangler for full coverage since average Jeep Wrangler insurance cost per month ranges from $148 to $180 depending on the trim level.

The Jeep Wrangler models with the most expensive insurance rates are the Rubicon 392 at $2,156 and the High Altitude 4xe at $2,084 per year. Those will cost an extra $384 and $312 per year, respectively, over the least expensive Sport 2-Door model.

In most instances, as vehicle cost increases as feature packages are added, the cost of insurance coverage also increases. The Wrangler follows this generality pretty closely, with the more expensive models being the most expensive to insure.

The table below shows average insurance rates for trim levels and options available on the 2023 Jeep Wrangler. Rates are shown for both annual and semi-annual policy terms.

The ‘Difference’ column shows the average insurance price difference between each model and the Wrangler. Green values indicate a cheaper insurance price for that specific model when compared to the Wrangler, while red values indicate a higher average rate.

Comparison of purchase price to insurance cost

For the 2023 model, the average MSRP for a Jeep Wrangler is $46,558, before destination and documentation fees.

This is obviously a very small comparison, and there are many other companies to choose from. We focused on companies that offer coverage nationwide for this comparison.

Other companies that offer coverage in most states include Allstate, Farmers, Nationwide, and Liberty Mutual. Companies that offer coverage in some states but not all include Erie Insurance, Auto-Owners, Westfield, and American Family.

We recommend comparing rates between at least five different car insurance companies in order to find the best rates. Include several major companies (Progressive, State Farm, GEICO, etc.) as well as smaller companies in your area.

If discount Jeep Wrangler insurance is your top priority, you’ll want to compare rates with not only the larger carriers but some of the smaller companies as well. The more apples-to-apples price quotes you get, the better chance you’ll have of finding cheap insurance on your Wrangler.

If the cheapest price isn’t your top priority, but rather customer service or claims handling, you’ll want to do a little research into customer satisfaction ratings like those performed annually by J.D. Power. They rate companies by region and state so users can see how companies rate. This is a great way to find some of the smaller, lesser-known companies in your area.

How to get discount Jeep Wrangler insurance

Discounts are a great way to reduce the cost of car insurance. Chances are you won’t qualify for every discount offered by most companies, but even if you can earn one or two of the larger discounts, it can save a lot on your premiums.

Top Ten Best Policy Discounts on Jeep Wrangler Insurance

Other discounts like driver’s education, early signing, homeowner, customer loyalty, and paperless billing may be offered as well. Those are generally smaller discounts but every little bit can help you get cheaper Wrangler insurance.

Many discounts will be applied automatically. For example, if you have a clean driving record and are claim-free, you’ll already qualify for a good driver discount with most companies. They pull your MVR report and claim reports upon application, so they know if you have any prior violations or claims (so be honest about these on your application).

However, some discounts may require you to follow up with some paperwork proving your eligibility. Examples of these discounts include driver’s education, having a student with good grades, or being a member of a professional organization (that’s another discount to check for).

Many occupations like medical professionals, first responders, teachers, and pilots can earn discounts on car insurance. If you qualify, you could save anywhere from $59 to $234 per year when insuring your 2023 Jeep Wrangler.

Another thing to mention is that you can’t necessarily stack all the discounts and receive what amounts to free car insurance. It doesn’t quite work that way as companies place a limit on the number of discounts that will apply. But if you do qualify for multiple discounts, that will go a long way to cutting the cost of insurance on your Jeep Wrangler.
