Nissan Insurance: The Cost to Insure Every Model

Nissan Insurance: The Cost to Insure Every Model

by updated

The average cost of insurance for a Nissan is $3,348. However, the price you'll pay varies considerably based on the age of your Nissan and what model you buy — a 2019 GT-R costs $7,388 annually to insure, while a 2010 Murano costs just $2,517 per year.

We recommend comparing rates in order to find the best savings on car insurance.

No spam. No hassle. No hidden costs.

Additionally, younger drivers can expect to encounter a much higher bill for Nissan insurance. An 18-year-old driver will spend an average of 88% more per year to insure their Nissan than a 30-year-old, even if the younger driver has a spotless record.

Nissan Altima

2019 MSRP: $24,100

The average price for insurance for a Nissan Altima is $3,360 for a 30-year-old driver.

Nissan's middle-tier sedan is slightly more expensive to insure than a typical Nissan, which costs an average of $3,348.

If you own an older Altima, you're likely to see lower rates to insure your car — a 2010 Nissan Altima costs just $3,033 per year to insure for our sample driver. That's 21% cheaper than it costs to cover a 2019 model.

Nissan GT-R

2019 MSRP: $99,990

The average price to insure a GT-R is $6,397 per year for a 30-year-old.

The GT-R is Nissan's fastest and most expensive car, and it's also the one that costs the most to insure. You can expect to pay 69% more to insure a GT-R than a 370Z, Nissan's other less expensive sports car.

Young drivers will pay even more for insurance on a GT-R. An 18-year-old driver will pay $11,661 per year to insure a GT-R. That's 82% more than a 30-year-old will spend.

Nissan Leaf

2019 MSRP: $29,990

The Nissan Leaf costs $3,568 per year of insurance coverage for a 30-year-old driver.

The Leaf is Nissan's only all-electric car and has a higher cost than most other Nissans — it's the most expensive among Nissan's compact and electric vehicle offerings.

Electric cars often cost more to insure than cars with standard engines because they cost more to repair, offsetting the fuel-savings benefits inherent in owning an electric car.

Nissan Maxima

2019 MSRP: $34,050

The typical cost to insure a Nissan Maxima is $3,665 per year for a 30-year-old driver.

That makes it the most expensive Nissan sedan to protect with car insurance. But older Maximas are less expensive to insure: A 2018 Maxima costs $4,171 per year to insure, while a 2011 costs just $3,234.

Nissan Rogue

2019 MSRP: $25,020

The Nissan Rogue costs an average of $2,908 annually for a 30-year-old driver across the 10 most recent model years available for a 30-year-old driver.

That's equal to a monthly rate of $242. If you're looking to pay less for insurance on a Rogue, go for an older model: We found that insuring a 2010 Rogue will lower your monthly rates by 21% compared to the 2019 model.

Nissan 370Z

2019 MSRP: $29,990

The average price to insure a 370Z, Nissan's mid-tier sports coupe, is $3,780 per year, or $315 per month, for a 30-year-old driver.

But an 18-year-old will pay much, much more to insure the same car: The average price for an 18-year-old with a clean driving history is $7,435 — nearly twice as expensive. The 370Z is the replacement for the older 350Z, which Nissan stopped selling in 2009.

Nissan Armada

2019 MSRP: $47,100

On average, a 30-year-old driver can expect to pay $3,454 for one year of coverage on a Nissan Armada.

The Armada is Nissan's largest SUV, and one of the most expensive vehicles the company sells. The vehicle's high cost and large size contribute to it being one of the more expensive Nissans to insure: Of currently available Nissan models, only four Nissans cost more for coverage.

Nissan Cube

The typical cost to insure a Nissan Cube is $2,864 per year for a 30-year-old driver, across the five most recent model years the car was available.

The Cube was discontinued after the 2014 model year.

The Nissan Cube's small size and low cost made it a popular choice for young people. Unfortunately, as with most cars, the cost to insure the Cube for an 18-year-old is much higher: 18-year-olds will pay an average of $5,345 among the most recent model years of the Cube. That's nearly 73% more expensive than the average cost for a 30-year-old.

Nissan Frontier

2019 MSRP: $19,090

The average annual insurance cost for a Nissan Frontier is $2,943 for a 30-year-old driver.

This makes it the less expensive of Nissan's two pickup truck models. The larger and more expensive Titan costs about 10% more for insurance coverage, in addition to the $10,000 difference in the vehicles' suggested retail prices.

Nissan Juke

The average cost to insure a Nissan Juke is $2,899 per year for a 30-year-old car owner.

The Juke was discontinued in 2018, and the last model of the Juke costs slightly less to insure than its replacement, the Kicks. The Juke is not particularly expensive to insure; its insurance price is slightly lower than the average cost among all Nissan SUVs ($3,348 for a 30-year-old driver).

2019 MSRP: $18,640

The Nissan Kicks costs $3,554 per year to insure for a 30-year-old.

The car was just introduced starting in the 2018 model year, so its average cost to insure is slightly inflated when compared to the average Nissan SUV. However, it still costs much less than more powerful vehicles like the Nissan 370Z.

2019 MSRP: $31,370

A Nissan Murano costs an average of $2,861 annually to insure for a 30-year-old driver.

This is the lowest price we found among all Nissan models available right now. The midsize SUV is about $100 less to insure per year than the Pathfinder, Nissan's next largest sport utility.

Nissan Pathfinder

2019 MSRP: $31,530

The average cost to insure a Nissan Pathfinder is $2,987 annually for a 30-year-old driver.

It costs about $100 more per year to insure than its slightly smaller sibling, the Murano. However, drivers looking to save money on Pathfinder insurance rates may want to look at an older model: Coverage for a 2010 Pathfinder costs more than $900 less per year than a 2019 model for the same amount of coverage.

Nissan Sentra

2019 MSRP: $17,890

The Nissan Sentra costs $3,214 per year for a 30-year-old driver with a good driving record to insure, on average.

Owners of 2019 Sentra models will pay $3,551 per year — 15% more than it costs to insure a five-year-old model. Among Nissan sedans, the cost of insuring a Senta is second cheapest; it's less expensive to insure than the larger Altima and Maxima but more than the smaller Versa.

Nissan Titan

2019 MSRP: $30,690

Insurance for a Nissan Titan costs an average of $3,259 per year for a 30-year-old driver.

That's $316 per year more expensive than Nissan's other pickup, the Frontier. However, the cost to insure a Titan is still slightly below the overall average cost to insure a Nissan.

Younger drivers will likely pay more to insure a Titan. We found that an 18-year-old will pay nearly double to insure a Nissan Titan than a 30-year-old would: $6,321 per year, on average.

Nissan Versa

2019 MSRP: $12,460

The Nissan Versa costs an average of $3,067 per year to insure, making it the least expensive Nissan sedan to insure.

The Versa is also Nissan's smallest, least costly car to purchase, so drivers looking to save money on a car and insurance may want to consider the Versa.

Teens and young drivers considering a Versa will likely have to pay more, unfortunately. The typical price an 18-year-old can expect to pay is $5,863, slightly less than double the price to insure a Versa for an older driver.

Nissan Xterra

The typical cost of insurance for a Nissan Xterra is $2,597 per year for a 30-year-old driver.

The Xterra has been discontinued after the 2016 model year, but it is one of the most affordable Nissans to insure: For example, the 2016 Xterra is the lowest of any 2016 Nissan model. The Frontier, the pickup truck upon which the Xterra was based, cost $320 more to insure for a 2016 model.

Methodology

We surveyed rates from five major national insurance providers: Allstate, Geico, Nationwide, State Farm and USAA. We used two sample drivers, one aged 18 and one aged 30. The profiles were otherwise identical: The drivers were both male, licensed at 16 years old and have no recent tickets or at-fault accidents.

ValuePenguin's analysis used insurance rate data from Quadrant Information Services. These rates were publicly sourced from insurer filings and should be used for comparative purposes only — your own quotes may be different.
