Unquestionably, car insurance for an older Jeep model is cheaper than it is for a new model.

Insurance claims data provided from the Insurance Bureau of Canada shows that claims on model years from 2000 through to 2012 are lower, dollar-wise, than other cars on the road.

However, this is to be expected. Drivers of older cars usually do not purchase comprehensive or collision insurance, instead opting to pay for repairs out of pocket. In many cases, it’s more cost effective to replace an old car than it is to spend money on repairs.

Since the majority of owners of older Jeeps don’t have these insurance coverages, they aren’t tracked by insurance companies, making them cheap to insure (which is also why we say Jeeps are great for young drivers who’ve never held car insurance before).

The average cost of insurance claims for Jeeps made in 2015 and afterwards is higher than its predecessors. This follows a wider trend in the Canadian auto insurance industry.

In general, cars are becoming more expensive to insure because they cost more to repair. Built-in features such as keyless entry, backup cameras and sensor-activated trunks are becoming commonplace.

This is why it’s important to compare car insurance rates from multiple insurance companies to ensure you’re getting the cheapest rate possible.

Depending on what Jeep you buy, the answer to that question will vary.

For cars that you are financing with a car loan or leasing, your lender or dealer may make it mandatory for you to purchase collision and comprehensive insurance on top of your basic coverage (third-party liability and accident benefits).

Car insurance for a used Jeep that’s older than five years likely doesn’t need to include collision and comprehensive coverage.

Regardless of which the above scenarios best describes your circumstance, you may decide to increase the amount of your accident benefits. Many Canadians are underinsured when it comes to accident benefits. The rule of thumb is to purchase at least $1 million in accident benefits, whereas drivers in many provinces are only required to have $250,000 worth of benefits.

Think of it like this: the best car insurance policy for your Jeep is one that will meet — even exceeding — your coverage needs and is financially sustainable.

To ensure you’re getting the best car insurance rate for your Jeep, we recommend comparing rates from multiple car insurance companies.

Many factors can influence the price of car insurance for your Jeep beyond the model you buy.

Your driving record: The less risk insurance companies think you present, the better the rates they will offer you.

Type of auto insurance: The more extensive your policy, the more it will cost.

Age of your vehicle: This will also have an effect on your insurance rate premiums. Older cars are usually cheaper to insure.

Your age: In some provinces (Ontario, Alberta, Quebec, and British Columbia), insurance companies are allowed to base your rate on your age. Younger people present more risk than drivers over 30.

Where you live: The probability of being involved in an accident in a congested city is higher, as is the chance of your car being stolen. For these reasons, car insurance usually costs more for city dwellers.
