Nissan Juke insurance group & cost

The Nissan Juke is a popular car, although its styling has proved fairly divisive amongst British motorists. The subcompact SUV first hit the UK roads in 2010 and offers a few different models depending on your specifications. The Juke is Nissan’s second best-selling car after the Qashqai.

Nissan Juke insurance groups and cost by driver’s age

When it comes to working out the cost of your car insurance, all vehicles are given a specific insurance group that ranges from 1 (cheapest) to 50 (most expensive), which helps determine the cost of your premium. Nissan Juke models range from insurance groups 8 to 26, so the cost of insurance can vary significantly. For example, a 30-year-old driver in an average postcode could pay around £537 for cover on a Nissan Juke Acenta 1.6 112PS 5d, or around £585 for a Nissan Juke 1.6 DiG-T N-Tec 5d.

How can I save on my Nissan Juke premiums?

Everyone wants to find the best cover at an affordable price. For your Nissan Juke premiums, there are a number of things that you could try to lower your costs. These include:

• Avoid any driving convictions. It may sound obvious, but having convictions on your record will hike up your premium.
• Be economical about your car usage. You could save money on your insurance by being more sparing with your car usage. Opting for public transport or walking when you can will help keep your mileage, and premiums, lower.
• Pay annually rather than monthly. By paying annually in our scenario, we’d save £76.68 a year on average.
• Install extra safety precautions. The safer you make your car, the better your premium will be. By investing in extra safety features, your vehicle will be more secure and less of a risk to insure.
• Don’t just accept your renewal quote. When it’s time for renewal, make sure you shop around – don’t just settle for the renewal price given to you!

Whilst there is not a lot you can do with the group rating your insurer puts your car into, you can control other factors that will affect the price you pay for cover such as your mileage, adding experienced drivers to the policy or parking in a safe place at night.

Shopping around and comparing the deals on offer will always help you sniff out the best policy for you.
