Is it cheaper to insure an older Subaru WRX?

The price of insuring a WRX doesn't change much over time. Full coverage for a 2022 WRX is only 5% less than for a 2018 model.

The most expensive WRX model year to insure is the 2021 edition, which costs an average of $254 per month to insure.

To reduce your rate, one method is to increase your deductible for comprehensive and collision coverages. A higher deductible means a lower premium, because it means the company pays less if you have an accident.

You could also consider removing comprehensive and collision from your policy altogether, as these become less important as your car loses value over time.
