Typical cost

What affects your premium

Why prices vary so much

  • The make and model of your vehicle — repair costs and theft rates vary by car.
  • Your claims history — a strong no-claims record is one of the most effective ways to lower premiums.
  • Excess amount — choosing a higher excess usually reduces your annual premium.
  • Driver inclusions — adding young or inexperienced drivers can raise the cost.

Common questions

What is an excess in car insurance?

An excess is the amount you pay out of pocket when making a claim. A higher excess generally means a lower annual premium. Some policies also have age-based excess for younger drivers.

Do no-claims bonuses carry over between insurers?

Most Australian insurers will ask about your claims history, and a clean record typically results in a lower premium. Whether a formal no-claims discount transfers depends on the insurer.

What information do I need to get a car insurance quote?

Generally your vehicle details (make, model, year, registration), your address, your age and driving history, and the level of cover you want. The process typically takes a few minutes.
