Save $432 a year. For real?

Consumers can’t get away from ads that promise big savings from the likes of 21st Century, Allstate and State Farm. They all make the same claim about savings if you switch your coverage to them.

But how can every company claim to save you money? It’s all in the numbers.

Different companies can use profiling for the right customer they prefer to insure. A good example of a preferred risk might be profiled as between 25 and 40, has no prior claims, and has a high credit rating. A propective insured who meets those qualifications receives the best rates and as a result will probably cut their rates substantially.

Drivers who do not match this ideal profile will be quoted a higher premium and this can result in the customer not buying. The ads state “drivers who switch” not “everybody who quotes” save money. That’s the way insurance companies can advertise the way they do.

This emphasizes why it’s extremely important to get as many comparisons as possible. Because you never know which company will provide you with the cheapest Audi A6 insurance rates.

Lots of discounts mean lots of savings

Insurance can be prohibitively expensive, but companies offer discounts to help bring down the price. Some trigger automatically at quote time, but some may not be applied and must be requested specifically prior to receiving the credit. If you don’t get every credit available, you are throwing money away.

  • Military Rewards – Having a family member in the military can result in better rates.
  • More Vehicles More Savings – Having multiple cars or trucks on one policy may reduce the rate for each vehicle.
  • Bundle and Save – When you have multiple policies with the same insurance company you will save approximately 10% to 15%.
  • Theft Prevention Discount – Anti-theft and alarm systems prevent vehicle theft and earn discounts up to 10%.
  • Driver’s Ed – Make teen driver coverage more affordable by requiring them to take driver’s ed class if it’s offered in school.

Keep in mind that some of the credits will not apply to all coverage premiums. Most only apply to individual premiums such as liability and collision coverage. So when it seems like it’s possible to get free car insurance, it just doesn’t work that way. But all discounts will cut your premiums.

Insurance companies that may have these benefits are:

It’s a good idea to ask every prospective company what discounts are available to you. Savings might not apply in your area.

Situations that might require an agent

When choosing the best car insurance coverage for your personal vehicles, there is no “perfect” insurance plan. Everyone’s situation is a little different so your insurance should reflect that For example, these questions might help in determining whether your personal situation might need an agent’s assistance.

  • What is UM/UIM insurance?
  • Will my rates increase for filing one claim?
  • Does having multiple vehicles earn me a discount?
  • Should I have combined single limit or split liability limits?
  • Is business equipment covered while in my vehicle?
  • Is a new car covered when I drive it off the dealer lot?

If you’re not sure about those questions but one or more may apply to you, you might consider talking to a licensed insurance agent. To find lower rates from a local agent, simply complete this short form or you can go here for a list of companies in your area. It is quick, free and may give you better protection.

Coverage specifics

Having a good grasp of a auto insurance policy can be of help when determining the right coverages at the best deductibles and correct limits. The terms used in a policy can be confusing and coverage can change by endorsement. Shown next are typical coverage types offered by auto insurance companies.

Coverage for liability

Liability insurance can cover damage or injury you incur to other people or property by causing an accident. It protects YOU from claims by other people, and doesn’t cover damage sustained by your vehicle in an accident.

Split limit liability has three limits of coverage: per person bodily injury, per accident bodily injury, and a property damage limit. Your policy might show limits of 100/300/100 that means you have $100,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $300,000, and property damage coverage for $100,000. Some companies may use a combined limit that pays claims from the same limit rather than limiting it on a per person basis.

Liability coverage pays for claims like funeral expenses, structural damage and bail bonds. How much liability coverage do you need? That is up to you, but you should buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Coverage for medical payments

Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for short-term medical expenses for things like rehabilitation expenses, hospital visits, ambulance fees, EMT expenses and X-ray expenses. They can be utilized in addition to your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Medical payments and PIP cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants and also covers getting struck while a pedestrian. Personal injury protection coverage is not available in all states and may carry a deductible

Uninsured and underinsured coverage

Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection from other motorists when they do not carry enough liability coverage. Covered losses include injuries to you and your family as well as damage to your Audi A6.

Because many people only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is important protection for you and your family. Most of the time these coverages are set the same as your liablity limits.

Comprehensive coverages

This covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You need to pay your deductible first and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage.

Comprehensive can pay for claims like theft, hitting a deer and hail damage. The highest amount you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low consider dropping full coverage.

Auto collision coverage

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.

Collision can pay for things such as colliding with another moving vehicle, scraping a guard rail, hitting a parking meter and hitting a mailbox. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It’s also possible to raise the deductible to get cheaper collision coverage.

Power to the consumer

In this article, we covered a lot of techniques to reduce 2013 Audi A6 insurance prices online. The key thing to remember is the more quotes you get, the better chance you’ll have of finding lower rates. You may even find the best price on car insurance is with the smaller companies. They may only write in your state and offer lower rates than their larger competitors like Geico and State Farm.

As you shop your coverage around, make sure you don’t buy less coverage just to save a little money. There have been many situations where an insured cut uninsured motorist or liability limits and learned later that it was a big mistake. Your focus should be to buy a smart amount of coverage at a price you can afford while not skimping on critical coverages.
