What factors impact Matrix insurance cost?

Insurance premiums paid to insure a Toyota Matrix can fluctuate considerably based upon several criteria. Taken into consideration are:

  • Your driving record
  • Credit rating impacts rates
  • The size of your community
  • Annual mileage can affect rates
  • Male drivers pay higher rates
  • Higher deductibles save money
  • Your vehicle's safety rating
  • Your job
  • Your coverage level
  • Whether you rent or own your home

One important consideration which can affect your rates is the age of the vehicle. Models that are a few years old have a reduced actual cash value compared to new Toyota models so the costs to repair will push premiums down. On the flip side, new Toyota models have more advanced features like traction control, tire pressure monitors, a collision avoidance system, and a telematics system which may provide discounts that lower premiums.

Liability

Liability insurance provides protection from damages or injuries you inflict on a person or their property that is your fault. Liability can pay for things such as emergency aid, pain and suffering, and medical services. Liability insurance is relatively cheap so buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Auto collision coverage

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage from colliding with an object or car. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder. This coverage can be expensive, so consider dropping it from lower value vehicles. Another option is to increase the deductible to get cheaper Matrix insurance rates.

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

This will pay to fix damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay. The most you can receive from a comprehensive claim is the actual cash value, so if the vehicle is not worth much consider removing comprehensive coverage.

UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage

This gives you protection when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. Since a lot of drivers only purchase the least amount of liability that is required, their limits can quickly be used up. That's why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage should not be overlooked.

Medical costs insurance

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance provide coverage for expenses like doctor visits, EMT expenses, and X-ray expenses. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. PIP is not universally available but can be used in place of medical payments coverage.
