How Bankrate chose the best car insurance companies in Maine

To find the best auto insurance in Maine, we started by obtaining average car insurance rates from Quadrant Information Services and comparing each company’s average rate to the state average. Because car insurance is such an important part of your financial health, we also analyzed coverage offerings, discounts, third-party scores, digital tools and more.

We combined these features into our proprietary Bankrate Score ranking method. Each rating factor was assigned to a tier with similar factors and was given weight according to its impact on customers. The weighted tier scores were then used to calculate an overall Bankrate Score on a scale of 0.0 to 5.0. The more highly a company ranks, the more highly its metrics scored in the underlying categories.

How much is car insurance in Maine?

The average cost of car insurance in Maine is $1,517 per year for full coverage car insurance and $398 per year for minimum coverage. These rates are significantly less than the national average cost of car insurance, which is $2,545 per year for full coverage and $741 per year for minimum coverage. For comparison, New Hampshire drivers pay $1,646 per year for full coverage and $419 per year for minimum coverage. Minimum coverage rates are even higher in nearby Massachusetts, where the state-required coverage costs $416 per year. In fact, Maine has some of the cheapest car insurance in the country, on average, potentially due to its sparse population density, which makes accidents less likely.

Car insurance rates are based on individual rating factors. These factors could include your driving record, such as involvement in at-fault accidents and moving violations, as well as your credit score, vehicle usage, location and more. Each car insurance company has its own method for calculating rates, so you will likely receive different quoted premiums, even if everything else is the same.

Methodology

Bankrate utilizes Quadrant Information Services to analyze the latest rates in February 2024 for ZIP codes and carriers in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Rates include the most recent approved rate changes filed by insurance companies that affect our profile. These revised rates are then weighted based on the population density in each geographic region so that policyholders can see the impact rates have in their areas. Quoted rates are based on a 40-year-old male and female driver with a clean driving record, good credit and the following full coverage limits:

  • $100,000 bodily injury liability per person
  • $300,000 bodily injury liability per accident
  • $50,000 property damage liability per accident
  • $100,000 uninsured motorist bodily injury per person
  • $300,000 uninsured motorist bodily injury per accident
  • $500 collision deductible
  • $500 comprehensive deductible

To determine minimum coverage limits, Bankrate used minimum coverage that meets each state’s requirements. Our base profile drivers own a 2022 Toyota Camry, commute five days a week and drive 12,000 miles annually.

These are sample rates and should only be used for comparative purposes.
