Criteria which help determine car insurance premiums

Car insurance premiums paid to insure a Mazda A3 can vary widely depending on several factors. A few of these criteria are:

• A clean driving record keeps rates low
• Credit rating
• Your location impacts rates
• Annual mileage can affect rates
• Your gender can raise or lower rates
• Low deductibles cost more
• NTSB crash rating for your vehicle
• Your claim history
• Maintaining coverage lowers rates
• Owning a home can lower rates

An additional factor that can impact Mazda A3 insurance quotes is the year of the vehicle. New vehicles have a higher value than older models so the cost to replace them can inflate annual premiums. But newer models may have safety features including lane departure warning system, a telematics system, and a collision avoidance system which can give discounted rates.

Liability car insurance

This coverage protects you from injuries or damage you cause to a person or their property. Liability coverage pays for claims such as funeral expenses, loss of income, and emergency aid. Coverage is generally pretty cheap so you should buy higher limits if possible.

Coverage for collisions

This coverage pays for damage to your A3 from colliding with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You will need to pay your deductible then your collision coverage will kick in. This coverage can be expensive, so you might think about dropping it from older vehicles. It's also possible to raise the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive auto insurance

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. A deductible will apply and then insurance will cover the rest of the damage. The maximum payout a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle's value is low consider dropping full coverage.

Protection from uninsured/underinsured drivers

This coverage protects you and your vehicle when the "other guys" do not carry enough liability coverage. Because many people have only the minimum liability required by law, it doesn't take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is a good idea.

Coverage for medical expenses

Med pay and PIP coverage pay for bills such as ambulance fees, surgery, and doctor visits. They are used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. Personal Injury Protection is not available in all states but it provides additional coverages not offered by medical payments coverage.
