Car insurance groups

Insurers take several factors into consideration when calculating your car insurance premiums, but one of the biggest is the type of car you drive. Read our guide to learn more about the car insurance groups that all cars are put into and how this can affect your premiums.

What are car insurance groups?

All new cars in the UK are given an insurance group rating, from 1 to 50, to help insurance providers decide how to calculate car insurance premiums. The rating essentially tells insurers which cars are the most expensive to cover as well as which ones are the cheapest to cover.
