The average cost of owning a Nissan is $187.35 a month, or $2,248.20 a year. Some models are fairly inexpensive to insure, such as the Frontier ($147 a month, or $1,764 a year). Others are pricier to protect, such as the Armada ($220 a month, or $2,640 a year).
Nissans are typically quite safe and affordable, which tempers insurance costs. However, certain models are frequently targeted by car thieves, such as the Maxima and Altima. This makes insurance costs slightly more expensive.

Special notes
- Nissan sells cars along a spectrum of price points. You’ll find budget models like the Versa ($11,990 MSRP), for example, as well as high-priced options like the GT-R ($109,990 MSRP).
- The Nissan Altima is the sixth-most-stolen vehicle in the United States, according to the National Insurance Crime Bureau. The Maxima is also frequently targeted by car thieves.
- Nissans typically score good crash ratings across the board from the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS). This helps to lower insurance costs. Some models score less than “Good” ratings in driver-side crash protection: For example, the Frontier gets a “Marginal” rating and the Leaf gets a “Poor” rating.
