Final thoughts on Mazda CX-5 insurance rates
Some additional thoughts on rates, policy discounts, and possible savings tips are below.
- Raising deductibles makes insurance more affordable. Boosting your deductibles from $500 to $1,000 could save around $196 per year for a 40-year-old driver and $382 per year for a 20-year-old driver.
- Low deductibles makes Mazda CX-5 car insurance more expensive. Lowering deductibles from $500 to $250 could cost an additional $204 per year for a 40-year-old driver and $402 per year for a 20-year-old driver.
- Clean up your credit for better rates. Having a high credit rating of over 800 could save as much as $181 per year over a good rating of 670-739. Conversely, a below average credit score could cost around $210 more per year. Not all states allow credit information to be used when determining insurance rates, so that discount may not be available where you live.
- Gender and age affect the rate you pay. For a 2022 Mazda CX-5, a 20-year-old man will have an average rate of $2,256 per year, while a 20-year-old female driver will pay $1,680, a difference of $576 per year in favor of the women by a long shot. But by age 50, male rates are $1,046 and female driver rates are $1,026, a difference of only $20.
- Don’t be a negligent driver. Having multiple accidents could cost you more, possibly by an additional $1,558 per year for a 20-year-old driver and even as much as $340 per year for a 50-year-old driver.
- Your choice of occupation could save you a few bucks. The vast majority of auto insurance companies offer policy discounts for being employed in professions like scientists, firefighters, police officers and law enforcement, accountants, farmers, and other occupations. Working in a qualifying occupation may save between $35 and $158 on your annual auto insurance bill, depending on the age of the rated driver.
- Policy discounts save money. Discounts may be available if the policyholders are accident-free, sign their policy early, insure their home and car with the same company, take a defensive driving course, or many other policy discounts which could save the average driver as much as $192 per year on the cost of insuring a Mazda CX-5.
