How a vehicle from Lexus affects insurance costs

Insurance companies look at a car’s safety ratings, its likelihood of being stolen and how costly it is to replace or repair, among other factors, when determining the cost of insurance.

Lexus vehicles’ good safety ratings and the fact that they aren’t commonly target by thieves help to bring down the cost of insurance. However, because a Lexus is considered a luxury car and has a higher price tag, your premium will be higher than with a lower-priced vehicle.

You should have little trouble getting insurance for your Lexus unless you have an IS-F model or SC model, which are performance models. Compare insurance providers below to find the best price.

Pros and cons of insuring a Lexus

Pros

  • Great safety ratings
  • Not often targeted by thieves

Cons

  • Costly to repair and replace

About the Lexus brand

When an affordable-car manufacturer wants to enter the luxury segment, creating a new brand seems in order. Nissan created Infiniti. For Toyota, the result was Lexus.

Lexus cars have developed reputations as stylish yet reliable rides — though they’re sometimes outshone by assertively designed BMWs, Land Rovers and Mercedes-Benzes. For its part, Lexus seems to have a good read on consumer tastes, maintaining its spot as Japan’s bestselling luxury brand and taking 2016’s number-two spot for top luxury sellers in the United States.

Are there any standout Lexus models?

Lexus touts the LC Hybrid as “a profound shift in hybrid performance.” Although the LC Hybrid is a certified super ultra-low emission vehicle, it can still perform, with an aerodynamic drag coefficient of 0.33, a top track speed of 155 mph and an acceleration of 0-60 mph in 4.7 seconds. Car and Driver even raves that it is “an engaging flagship coupe that engrosses all the senses.”

Prices start at $96,510 for a new Lexus LC.

What is Enform?

Enform is Lexus’ suite of technology apps and connected services. With Enform drivers can start their car remotely, get navigation assistance and connect to emergency services.

After the complementary trial period, Enform is available as a paid subscription. Not all Lexus models are equipped with Enform capabilities.
