What does it cost to insure my Kia?
"*" indicates required fields
You may have heard some Kia owners have issues insuring their vehicles. In early 2023, theft rates on older Kia models surged, accelerated by popular videos circulating social media that taught others how to break in and steal vehicles that did not come with a standard immobilizer. Â
In response to the rising theft rates on some Kia models, some insurance companies, like Progressive and State Farm, refused to insure these vehicles in some states. For owners of these models, it became harder to insure their vehicle.Â
However, there is no need for alarm. First, not all Kia models are affected, only certain models from 2015-2019 with lower trim. Additionally, even if your vehicle was one of the models affected, you always have options for insurance. Our car insurance comparison tool can help you understand what insurance companies can serve you and how much you can expect to pay at each.Â
Among popular 2023 vehicles, Kias are generally cheap to insure. The average cost for 2023 Kia models is between $1,840 and $2,300. However, the price you will pay for Kia insurance depends on several factors, including the year, model, and trim level of your vehicle as well as personal factors like where you live, your age, and your driving record.Â
Some Kia models that were affected by increased theft rates may also be more expensive to insure than other vehicles because they bring heightened risk to insurance companies.Â
The cheapest Kia to insure is a Kia Sportage while the most expensive model is the Kia Forte. In general, SUVs are less expensive to insure than sedans, so it makes sense that the compact Sportage is well below the average cost of car insurance ($2,123) and the Forte is about $180 above it.Â

Personalized rate estimates at the top insurance companies in your state
Your rates will vary based on where you live, your age, and other factors like your driving record
Rate Retriever rates are based on public rate filings obtained by analytics company First Interpreter. This data comes from the rating plans insurance carriers submit to each state’s department of insurance. Rating plans detail how each carrier calculates premiums using factors such as location, age, gender, and driving record, and they ensure that insurance premiums are both fair and competitive.Â
For the data on this page, we made the following assumptions: a 35-year-old single male with a clean driving record and Good credit score. We adjusted this profile by vehicle make, model, trim, and year to determine the rates you see on this page.
These rates are not actual quotes and should only be used for comparative purposes. Your rates can vary significantly based on your unique driver profile.Â
