How Much are Car Insurance Rates for a Chevrolet Equinox in Phoenix?

Buying the best cheap auto insurance for a Chevrolet Equinox in Arizona relies on a pretty complex algorithm that uses a lot of factors such as the safety rating of your vehicle, your residence address, and driving violations. Drivers in Arizona will pay around $1,188 each year for Equinox insurance, but that price is an estimation based on a 40-year-old single female driver with full coverage and $100 deductibles.

When projecting a rate like this, the problem is that you may not be 40 years old (or even female), possibly married instead of single, or maybe your Equinox is old enough that it doesn’t require full coverage. Auto insurance requires individual risk assessment, so the only way to find cheap insurance rates for your Chevrolet is to do your own rate comparisons.

These premiums are averages across all drivers and vehicles in Arizona and do not take into consideration an exact location for a Chevrolet Equinox. So the car insurance company that can offer you the best rate may not even be in the list above. That point stresses why you need to compare rates from as many companies as possible using your own driver and vehicle profiles.

Should you buy full coverage?

Paying a lower price for insurance is the goal of the majority of people, and one of the quickest ways to reduce the cost of insurance for a Chevrolet Equinox is to not buy full coverage. The chart below shows the comparison of insurance costs with full physical damage coverage compared to only buying the minimum liability limits required in Arizona. The data is based on no claims, a clean driving record, $100 deductibles, single status, and no policy discounts are applied.

As an average, physical damage insurance costs $2,042 per year more than buying just liability insurance. That may make you wonder if buying full coverage is worth the expense. There is no set rule to stop paying for comprehensive and collision coverage on your policy, but there is a guideline you can use. If the yearly cost of full coverage is more than around 10% of the settlement you would receive from your company, then you might want to think about dropping full coverage.

For example, let’s say your vehicle’s book value is $7,000 and you have $1,000 deductibles. If your vehicle is totaled in an accident, the most your company would pay you is $6,000 after you pay the deductible. If it’s costing you more than $600 annually for comprehensive and collision coverage, then you may want to consider only buying liability coverage.

Why you should be comparing rates

Phoenix insurance rates are impacted by many things that control the price you pay for coverage. Getting older, buying a different vehicle, or getting a few speeding tickets can trigger rate changes resulting in some rates now being much cheaper than others.

Also, insurers modify pricing at least once a year in order to maintain liquidity for claims. Heavier than normal losses may cause high rates, while a lower level of claims may produce more affordable Equinox insurance rates.

The chart below shows the company with the cheapest car insurance in Phoenix, AZ for a 40-year-old male driver with no accidents, a clean driving record, and a good credit history.

This is $232 less than the average price paid by Arizona drivers of $1,428. Auto-Owners, Safeco, Travelers, and USAA are the rest of the cheapest Phoenix, AZ auto insurance companies.
