Bottom line
Liberty Mutual may be more established by a few years, but Progressive folds higher user satisfaction into more discounts for your autopay, minor child, vehicle safety features — and generally being an overall good driver. If neither one’s right for you, compare car insurance options to find the best policy for you.
