How It Works
Putting quotes from several insurers next to each other is the fastest way to see who is actually offering you a fair deal. Side-by-side comparison lets you land on a policy that covers what you need without paying more than you have to, so you stay properly protected and keep your premiums in check.
The calculator works on one quote at a time. You choose a coverage level (State Minimum, Standard or Full Coverage) and enter the quote's annual premium and the miles you drive a year; it breaks the premium into a monthly cost (÷ 12), a daily cost (÷ 365) and a cost per mile, and lists the liability limits and whether collision and comprehensive come with that level. Running each insurer's quote through it puts them on the same monthly and per-mile footing. There is no deductible field, so compare deductibles on the quotes themselves. The "Avg. for this tier" line ($600, $1,400 or $2,000 a year) is the calculator's own reference figure, not a published average, and the 25/50/25 limits shown for State Minimum are an example, since each state sets its own minimum.
Price alone is a poor guide. The cheapest quote can leave you underinsured if its coverage limits or deductibles are weaker than a slightly pricier rival's, so weigh those terms alongside the premium. It also pays to look past the numbers entirely at customer service ratings and how smoothly each company handles claims, since that is what matters most on the day you actually need to file one.
Example: Comparing Two Auto Insurance Quotes
- 1 Company A quotes $1,800 a year with a $500 deductible; Company B quotes $1,560 a year with a $1,000 deductible. Both carry 100/300/100 liability plus collision and comprehensive, so each is entered at the Standard level with 12,000 miles a year.
- 2 Company A: $1,800 ÷ 12 = $150.00 a month, $1,800 ÷ 365 = $4.93 a day and $1,800 ÷ 12,000 = $0.150 a mile. Company B: $130.00 a month, $4.27 a day and $0.130 a mile.
- 3 Company B saves $240 a year ($1,800 − $1,560), but its deductible is $500 higher, so a single claim within about two years ($500 ÷ $240 = 2.1 years) would use up the savings.
- 4 The NAIC notes that a higher deductible lowers your premium but that you must be able to afford it if you have a loss, and that insurers differ in claims service as well as price, so weigh both before choosing.
