How much does car insurance cost in Arizona?

Rates in Arizona vary by city, ZIP, driver history, vehicle, and credit (where allowed). The fastest way to know your real number is to quote: about 10 minutes online or by phone.

Arizona minimum coverage vs. full coverage

Arizona requires every driver to carry at least 25/50/15 in liability coverage:

$25,000 for injury or death of one person per accident

$50,000 for injury or death of two or more people per accident

$15,000 for property damage per accident

That's the legal minimum, but it doesn't cover damage to your car. If you owe money on your car, your lender almost always requires full coverage (which adds collision and comprehensive).

We can run both quotes side by side so you see the actual price difference for your situation. More on Arizona minimum coverage →
