How often do insurance companies change their auto insurance rates?  Insurance companies must apply for rate increases or decreases to the Financial Services Regulatory Authority of Ontario (FSRA).  Every 3 months, the FSRA approves rate changes for one or more insurance companies.   This means if you had the best auto insurance rate last year or 2 years ago, you may not have the best rate now.

Is there a big difference in auto insurance rates from one insurance company to the next?

Yes, the difference can can range from a few hundred dollars between the lowest and highest premiums to upwards of $1,000.

We quoted a 55 year old male driving a 2012 Hyndai Sante Fe to work with $1,000,000 liability and a $1,000 deductible for collision and comprehensive coverage.  The rates did not include discounts.  10 insurance companies were quoted with $1,502 being the lowest and $2,025 being the highest or a difference of more than $500.

Does where I live affect my car insurance rate?

Insurance companies divide Ontario into rating territories by postal code.  The table below shows the annual auto insurance premium from one insurance company across a number of rating territories. The premium is based on a 40 year old married male with a clear driving record who drives 15 kms to work and 25,000 kms annually. The vehicle is a 2016 Toyota Camry LE 4 door and coverage is $1,000,000 liability with a $1,000 deductible for collision and comprehensive coverage. The auto insurance rates do not include discounts.
