At age 25, young adults will be starting to build financial assets so they can afford more than basic liability car insurance, which pays for others’ injuries and damage you cause to their property in an accident. Typically, the state-minimum coverage isn’t enough – medical costs can quickly escalate if significant injuries occur in an accident.
As young adults gain more disposable income, they should consider comprehensive and collision coverage – a must if you’re financing a vehicle. If you have a higher deductible, you can lower your rate, but you’ll be responsible for the deductible if you make a claim.
Ultimately, the best car insurance for 25-year-olds is the policy that meets their individual needs. The Best Insurance Companies survey found that American Family is the best insurance company for young drivers and teens. Review a company’s National Association of Insurance Commissioners’ (NAIC) score, which ranks a company by the number of customer complaints it receives, its J.D. Power auto claims satisfaction score and AM Best data, which measures financial strength.
Car insurance discounts for 25-year-olds in Colorado
Kevin Lynch, an assistant professor of insurance at The American College of Financial Services in Bryn Mawr, Penn., stresses that the three biggest favors any young adult can do for themselves in terms of getting the lowest insurance rates are to stay accident-free, maintain a clean driving record and a good credit score.
“They’re the essentials of getting affordable insurance,” he says. “After that, you can look at a variety of other things such as affiliated discounts, bundling insurance policies and perhaps an in-car monitoring device.”
Other car insurance discounts that might be available:
- Good driver/safe driver: Up to 30%
- Multi-policy discounts: Up to 13%
- Lower annual mileage/driving less: Up to 9%
- Usage-based discount programs/telematics: Up to 10%
- Paperless discount/autopay: Up to 4%
- Loyalty discount: Up to 11%
- Anti-theft devices: Up to 2%
In addition to discounts, consider the kind of car you choose. Practical, safe and reliable cars are cheaper to insure than sports or luxury vehicles.
