Criteria which help determine Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback insurance rates

Auto insurance rates on a Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback can be significantly different based upon several criteria. A few of these criteria are:

• The performance level of your Lancer Sportback
• How many accidents you have had
• Whether you insure your home with the same company
• Pleasure use vs. commuting use
• Young drivers cost more
• Whether you are married
• Optional coverages like vehicle replacement
• Claims drive up premiums
• Maintaining coverage lowers rates
• Owning a home can lower rates

A final factor that will help determine Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback insurance cost is the model year. Newer models have a higher replacement value in comparison to later models so repair costs are higher which may end up costing you more. But more recent Lancer Sportback vehicles may have a trim level with safety features including forward-collision avoidance, a collision avoidance system, a backup camera, and automatic crash notification that may help lower rates.

Liability auto insurance

Liability insurance will cover injuries or damage you cause to people or other property by causing an accident. Liability coverage protects against claims such as funeral expenses, loss of income, and emergency aid. Liability insurance is relatively cheap so consider buying as large an amount as possible.

Collision insurance

Collision coverage will pay to fix damage to your Lancer Sportback resulting from a collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You first must pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder. Collision coverage for your Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback can be pricey, so consider dropping it from vehicles that are older. You can also bump up the deductible to save money on collision insurance.

Comprehensive (Other than Collision)

This coverage pays for damage caused by mother nature, theft, vandalism and other events. You first have to pay a deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by your Mitsubishi Lancer Sportback comprehensive insurance. The highest amount a car insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if it's not worth much more than your deductible it's not worth carrying full coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

This coverage protects you and your vehicle's occupants when the "other guys" are uninsured or don't have enough coverage. Due to the fact that many drivers only carry the minimum required liability limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is important protection for you and your family.

Medical expense insurance

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage provide coverage for bills (i.e. ambulance fees, surgery, and doctor visits). They are often used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. PIP is only offered in select states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay.
