What insurance group is my Vauxhall in?
It's always a good shout to work out how much car insurance is likely to cost, especially if you’re considering buying a new Vauxhall. To give you an idea, check the Vauxhall model's car insurance group.
All car models fall into one of 50 car insurance groups. Generally speaking, these groups are ranked in terms of insurance risk. Insurance costs go up the higher the group.
Factors affecting a car’s insurance group include:
- The car's value: Expensive cars tend to fall into higher groups.
- Security features: Features which prevent theft will help cars fall into lower groups.
- Repair costs: If a car is more pricey to fix, it'll fall into a higher group.
- The power of the engine: Cars with high top speeds and punchy acceleration are statistically more likely to be involved in a collision. This means they're likely to be in higher groups.
- How safe the car is: The more safety features a car has, the less likely it will be in a collision - for example ABS brakes. Safer cars will fall into lower groups.
