Do red cars cost more to get auto insurance on them?

No, the color of the car is generally not used as a rating factor by insurance companies.

Factors that most car insurers do take in account include:

  • Your age
  • Marital Status
  • Gender
  • Accident claims
  • Geography
  • Driving violations
  • Your vehicle
  • Credit rating
  • Occupation

Other factors that can go into determining premiums:

  • Years of driving experience
  • Miles driven per year
  • Distance to work
  • Business use of the vehicle
