Looking for something more specific?

If you'd rather browse by vehicle type than by model name, see insurance groups by vehicle type — separate guides for electric cars, SUVs, 4x4s and vans. For the full 1–50 table with typical costs side by side, use the car insurance groups list, and for the cheap end of the scale specifically, see cheapest car insurance groups.

New to insurance groups altogether? Start with car insurance groups explained, which covers how the ABI/Thatcham Group Rating Panel actually sets these numbers.
