Our methodology * In the table above for State Minimum Protection, we are showing only BI and PD for minimum requirements but that the rate shown in State Minimum Protection includes all coverage your state requires. You can find more details about your state here at Minimum Requirements by States. "State minimum" and "Standard Liability" policies are typically minimum or low-limit policies, providing bare-bones coverage. While these policies have lower rates, we recommend higher limits to ensure sufficient coverage should an accident or vehicle damage occur. "Full Coverage" policies will provide better coverage for you and your vehicle, as they have higher liability limits, plus include coverage for your vehicle through collision and comprehensive insurance. These policies offer the most financial protection should you have to file a claim.

Car insurance calculator New York: How to get auto insurance estimates

CarInsurance.com editors recommend comparing quotes from at least three different car insurance companies when your policy is up for renewal. You can use online quoting tools to find car insurance estimates.

Every insurance company uses its own unique rating system, meaning they assess factors like age or driving history differently. For example, if you get a ticket, one insurer might raise your premium by 5%, while another could increase it by 20%.

What factors affect car insurance estimates in New York?

Insurance estimates vary between states because of different insurance laws. In tort insurance states, the driver who caused the accident is responsible for covering the damages, and this often involves litigation to determine fault and damage costs.

Unlike tort laws, no-fault insurance laws in several U.S. states streamline the process by having each party’s insurance cover their own injury costs, regardless of who caused the accident.

It’s a good idea to get car insurance quotes before you purchase a new vehicle so you can factor that cost into your overall budget. Cars with smaller engines and advanced safety features generally have lower insurance premiums, making them a more affordable option to insure. On the contrary, luxury and sports cars usually have higher insurance costs.

“The best way to get car insurance quotes is to comparison shop – making sure you are comparing apples to apples. The internet is a great resource to compare insurance products – be sure to line up the exact dollar coverage and any riders included as well,” says James Brau, Joel C. Peterson professor of finance at Brigham Young University’s Marriott School of Business. “If you’re calling specific insurance companies, have them email written quotes to make sure there is no misunderstanding. Oftentimes, lower-cost insurance quotes don’t offer as much protection as higher-priced premiums, so it is an exercise in comparing apples to oranges.”

Collapse allExpand all

How much auto insurance do I need in New York?

How much car insurance you need depends on several factors, including financial circumstances, the car’s value and your risk tolerance. If your vehicle is leased or financed, the lender will likely require you to secure comprehensive and collision coverage, commonly known as full coverage, when combined with liability.

Every state has different minimum car insurance coverage requirements. But the minimum requirements usually don’t provide enough protection if you’re involved in an accident.


RequirementsCoverage limits
Minimum bodily injury liability$25,000 per person, $50,000 per accident
Minimum property damage liability$10,000 per accident

How much does car insurance cost in New York per month?

The monthly cost of full coverage car insurance in New York, including collision, comprehensive, and 100/300/100 liability, is $156. For state minimum liability, it’s $61 per month, while liability coverage with 50/100/50 limits costs $69 monthly.

Does your age impact how much you pay for insurance in New York?

Young drivers often pay more for car insurance in New York due to their lack of driving experience and statistically higher risk of getting into accidents. Insurance companies use this data to calculate risk, and this factor is built into the premiums that young drivers pay.

Additionally, young drivers are more likely to engage in risky behaviors such as speeding and distracted driving, further increasing the cost of their car insurance.
