How Bankrate chose the best car insurance companies in Indiana

Indiana drivers can choose from dozens of companies for their car insurance needs, but Bankrate knows that the best insurance company in Indiana is different for each consumer. Our goal in reviewing the Indiana car insurance market is to help you find the best insurance for you.

We started by reviewing average car insurance rates from Quadrant Information Services for the largest auto insurers in Indiana by market share. Next, we analyzed third-party customer satisfaction reviews from J.D. Power and the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC) as well as financial strength ratings from AM Best. We finished by doing a thorough review of each company's coverage offerings, discounts, digital tools and other perks.

We combined these metrics into a single Bankrate Score on a scale of 0.0 to 5.0. A higher overall score means that a company ranked more highly in the underlying categories. Using our Bankrate Score metric can help you easily see how companies compare to each other using a single data point, making the shopping process easier and more seamless for you.

How to find the best car insurance in Indiana

Auto insurance is a necessity if you own a car. Driving without insurance is illegal, and doing so puts you at significant personal and financial risk. Buying a policy can help you avoid financial catastrophe should you cause an accident or get injured behind the wheel. Before buying a policy, consider the type of coverage you need and compare multiple carriers to find the one that offers the right coverage for your needs.

New

What’s new in Indiana?

In 2023, Indiana passed a law that requires delivery service companies like Uber and GrubHub to expand insurance coverage to drivers who are available for work, but are not actively completing a ride or order. Previously, companies did not have to cover drivers during this period, leaving them vulnerable to liability claims if they were to be involved in an accident while waiting for a fare. The state previously required this coverage for rideshare drivers, but will now expand it to delivery drivers, as well. The law also sets minimum coverage amounts for insurance provided to gig workers at $50,000 per incident of property damage while waiting for a fare and $1,000,000 while making a delivery. The law went into effect in July 2024.

How much is car insurance in Indiana?

Indiana is one of the more affordable states in the nation for car insurance, perhaps due to its low population density and competitive insurance market. The average cost of car insurance in Indiana is $398 per year for minimum coverage and $1,683 per year for full coverage. These average costs are cheaper than the national average cost of car insurance, which is $664 annually for minimum coverage and $2,388 annually for full coverage.

Average rates in Indiana are also significantly cheaper than those in Michigan, the state’s neighbor to the north, where minimum coverage costs an average of $895 per year and full coverage costs an average of $3,053 per year. To the south, Kentucky drivers also pay more than drivers in Indiana, with average rates of $762 per year for minimum coverage and $2,658 per year for full coverage. Indiana’s low cost of insurance may be linked to its decreasing number of licensed drivers. Between 2011 and 2021, the number of licensed drivers in the Hoosier State dropped from over 6.5 million to just under 4.6 million, and remains at that number as of 2022. Fewer drivers on the road may mean fewer accidents.
