What are the cheapest cars to insure?
Remember the criteria that Thatcham Group uses to determine car insurance groups. The cheapest cars to insure will generally be those with:
- Smaller engines
- Low top speeds
- Limited 0-60 acceleration
- No modifications or high spec trim
- A low list price (it means the standard price for new car before dealer gives any discount).
All other things being equal, the cheapest insurance group is Group 1. While you may not find the specification you want among the very lowest insurance group cars, overall car insurance groups 1-20 will generally give you relatively low insurance rates. Once you start climbing above group 30, you’re going to be looking at comparatively steep premiums.
However, whether you are a learner driver or an experienced driver with a clean licence, the cheapest cars to insure will always be the same.
You will find below a list of most famous car trims famous to be getting cheap quotations from providers:
| Car manufacturer | Car band |
|---|---|
| Skoda | Skoda Citigo, Skoda Fabia |
| Volkswagen | Volkswagen Polo, Volkswagen Up |
| Hyundai | Hyundai i10 |
| Ford | Ford Ka+, Ford Fiesta |
| Vauxhall | Vauxhall Corsa |
| Toyota | Toyota Yaris |
When you’re looking for a car, remember to check the exact model and specifications, because the detail really does matter if you want to get cheaper car insurance. For instance, the Hyundai i10 comes handily into Group 1 or 2 with the 1 litre engine, but the higher spec i10 Premium with a 1.2 litre engine pushes the insurance group up to 5.
