is an important part of budgeting when purchasing a new car. Since you feel good about your car payment, feeling good about your insurance is the next step!
Car insurance companies all calculate rates differently, so you won’t find one single way to calculate your insurance amount. However, you can look into insurance providers to determine what your cost will be.
For an accurate quote, insurance companies need your:
Name
Driver’s license number
Date of birth
Social Security number
Address
Vehicle identification number (VIN)
Insurers also look at your driving record and credit history. After selecting your coverage levels, the provider decides on a rate and provides you with a policy premium.
