Factors Affecting Mustang Insurance Rates
The cost of insuring a Ford Mustang varies based on several factors, including the model year, coverage level, driver’s age, and location. Here’s a detailed breakdown:
– **Average Cost for a Ford Mustang**: According to the latest data, the average annual premium for a Ford Mustang with full coverage is $2,549 annually. This is $346 less than the national average for popular coupe models.
– **Model Year Impact**: Newer models generally have higher insurance rates. For example:
– A 2024 Ford Mustang EcoBoost costs $1,704 per year for a 40-year-old driver with full coverage, while the same coverage for a 2015 model costs $1,481.
The 2023 Ford Mustang costs an average of $2,427 per year, whereas the 2022 model costs $2,059 annually.
– **Coverage Type**: Full coverage insurance, including comprehensive and collision coverage, costs more than minimum coverage. On average, full coverage for a Ford Mustang costs $2,841 per year, while minimum coverage costs $675 per year.
– **Driver Age**: Younger drivers generally pay more due to their perceived higher risk. For example, a 16-year-old driver pays significantly more than a 40-year-old for the same coverage levels.
