In 2025, the cheapest insurance vehicles are mostly non-premium practical crossovers and small SUVs. Echos through several rankings: Subaru Forester/Outback, Honda CR-V, Mazda CX-5, Toyota Tacomic/RAV4, Jeep Wrangler, Ford Escape

– Honda CR-V, Jeep Wrangler, Subaru Crosstrek, Toyota RAV4 are also consistently named as safe bets.

Important: Each ranking uses different driver profiles and coverage assumptions. That’s why prices look different from one site to another. Always get quotes for your own ZIP code.

EpicVIN research: what actually moves your premium

EpicVIN analysts compared national rankings with our own vehicle history database. We see millions of VIN-level accident and repair reports every year. That gives us a unique look at what lowers insurance costs:

– “Boring is beautiful.” Cars with average horsepower and standard safety systems cause fewer severe claims.

– Common parts = faster repairs. Popular models with easy bumper and glass replacements get fixed quicker and cheaper.

– Theft risk matters. Cars with lower theft rates and factory immobilizers avoid big surcharges.

– Tech repair costs. Advanced driver-assist systems raise costs if calibration is expensive. Cars with cheaper sensor layouts tend to get better premiums.

Quick picks for 2025

Here are models that often bring lower quotes this year:

Subaru Outback / Forester – Strong safety scores and manageable repair costs.

Honda CR-V – Reliable, with a huge supply of parts.

Toyota RAV4 / Tacoma – Robust, ubiquitous service parts.

Ford Escape / Jeep Wrangler (base models)- Inexpensive in most states.

Tip: Hybrids such as the RAV4 Hybrid and CR-V Hybrid occasionally ring in less expensive than you’d think due to the well-acquainted repair procedures.

What about EVs?

There was less difference between EVs and gas-cars in 2025.

Nevertheless, certain well-liked EVs—such as the Tesla Model Y—have higher prices due to difficult right repairs.

Mainstream EVs with simpler parts (for example, Nissan Leaf) may price surprisingly well. Always check multiple carriers.
