Rates are determined by these things

Insurance rates for a 2007 will vary greatly subject to many criteria. Including but not limited to:

  • More performance equals higher cost
  • Your accident history
  • Home and auto can earn discounts
  • Use of your vehicle
  • Mature drivers pay less
  • Having a spouse can save money
  • Add-on coverages such as rental reimbursement
  • No claims lowers premiums
  • Having current coverage saves
  • Home ownership saves money

One last important factor that can impact the rate you pay on your is the year of manufacture. New vehicles have a higher value so the payout to repair will push premiums up. On the flip side, new models may have options like a telematics system, a collision avoidance system, tire pressure monitors, and traction control so those may give discounted rates.

Coverage for liability

2007 liability coverage provides protection from damage or injury you incur to other people or property. Liability insurance covers claims like pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects, and legal defense fees. This coverage is usually fairly inexpensive so purchase as much as you can afford.

Collision insurance

This coverage pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. You have to pay a deductible and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage. 2007 collision insurance is rather expensive coverage, so consider removing coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. It's also possible to choose a higher deductible to get cheaper .

Comprehensive coverage (or Other than Collision)

Comprehensive insurance pays to fix your vehicle from damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You need to pay your deductible first then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage. The maximum amount your auto insurance company will pay is the market value of your vehicle, so if the vehicle's value is low consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage protects you and your vehicle when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, it only takes a small accident to exceed their coverage. That's why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is a good idea.

Insurance for medical payments

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance reimburse you for immediate expenses for things like EMT expenses, pain medications, and nursing services. They are used to fill the gap from your health insurance plan or if you lack health insurance entirely. Personal injury protection coverage is not universally available but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
