Premiums are calculated by these things

Insurance premiums for a Volvo 240 can fluctuate considerably and are calculated by many factors. Including but not limited to:

  • Tickets increase premiums
  • Credit rating impacts rates
  • Male drivers pay higher rates
  • The deductible you choose
  • Crash test rating for your 240
  • Your job
  • The level of coverage
  • Home ownership saves money

One important consideration which can affect your rates is the age of the vehicle. Models that are a few years old have a lower value compared to new Volvo models so repair costs tend to be lower which may end up costing you less. Conversely, new Volvo models have more advanced features such as adaptive headlights, blind-spot warning system, and a rollover prevention system which may help offset higher rates.

To get a better idea how rates are influenced for your specific model year, select the year of your vehicle from the list below.

Liability

This provides protection from damage or injury you incur to other people or property that is your fault. Liability can pay for claims like pain and suffering, repair costs for stationary objects, and legal defense fees. It is cheap coverage so buy as high a limit as you can afford.

Collision insurance

This pays to fix your vehicle from damage caused by collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies then the remaining damage will be paid by your insurance company. Volvo 240 collision insurance is rather expensive coverage, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from lower value vehicles. Drivers also have the option to increase the deductible to bring the cost down.

Comprehensive or Other Than Collision

Comprehensive insurance covers damage from a wide range of events other than collision. You first must pay your deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay. The most your car insurance company will pay is the cash value of the vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle's value consider removing comprehensive coverage.

Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist (UM/UIM)

Uninsured or Underinsured Motorist coverage provides protection from other drivers when they either have no liability insurance or not enough. Since a lot of drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their limits can quickly be used up. So UM/UIM coverage should not be overlooked.

Medical costs insurance

Medical payments and Personal Injury Protection insurance kick in for immediate expenses like EMT expenses, pain medications, and nursing services. They can be used to fill the gap from your health insurance program or if you do not have health coverage. PIP coverage is not universally available and may carry a deductible.
