What factors determine SLK-Class insurance cost?

Auto insurance rates on a Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class can fluctuate considerably and are calculated by many factors. Taken into consideration are:

High performance increases premiums
Accidents raise premiums
Whether you insure your home with the same company
Pleasure use vs. commuting use
Special coverage such as replacement cost
Claims drive up premiums
Having current coverage saves
Whether you rent or own your home

A final factor that will help determine SLK-Class insurance rates is the model year. Models that are new have a higher replacement value in comparison to later models so the costs to repair may result in higher rates. On the flip side, more recent Mercedes-Benz vehicles may have a trim level with safety features like a backup camera, dual-stage airbags, and an advanced theft deterrent system which may help offset higher rates.

For you to have a better understanding of how much rates will be for your vehicle, select the year of your SLK-Class from available model years below.

Auto liability insurance

This will cover damages or injuries you inflict on people or other property by causing an accident. Liability can pay for things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. It is cheap coverage so consider buying as high a limit as you can afford.

Auto collision coverage

Collision coverage will pay to fix damage to your Mercedes-Benz resulting from a collision with an object or car. A deductible applies then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company. Collision coverage for your SLK-Class can be pricey, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from vehicles that are older. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible to get cheaper SLK-Class insurance rates.

Comprehensive insurance

This coverage covers damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first must pay your deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by your Mercedes-Benz SLK-Class comprehensive insurance. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the cash value of the vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle's value it's not worth carrying full coverage.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage

This provides protection when other motorists are uninsured or don't have enough coverage. Due to the fact that many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. That's why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is important protection for you and your family.

Med pay and Personal Injury Protection (PIP)

Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage kick in for expenses (i.e. doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses). They can be used in conjunction with a health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. PIP coverage is only offered in select states and may carry a deductible.
