Hyundai i30 insurance group and cost

Hyundai i30 insurance groups and cost by driver’s age

With car insurance, all vehicles are given a specific insurance group that ranges from 1 (cheapest) to 50 (most expensive) which helps work out the cost of your premium. Hyundai i30 models range from insurance groups 6 to 13, so you can generally expect the cost of your insurance to be quite reasonable.

However, the the cost of insurance can vary between insurance groups based on a number of different factors. Factors such as the car’s performance, safety and security features included as standard and the cost of repair all play a part in determining the overall cost. For example, a 30-year-old driver in an average postcode could pay around £672 for cover on a Hyundai i30 1.4 CRDi Classic 5d (insurance group 6), or around £721 for a Hyundai i30 1.6 GO SE Panorama 5d which falls in insurance group 10.

Which factors affect my Hyundai i30 insurance rate?

Along with the insurance group, there are other key factors that impact your insurance premium costs:

• Engine type and capacity. In general, the bigger the engine, the more you will pay for your insurance. An average 30-year-old may pay £688 for the 1.3-litre Hyundai i30 1.4 Classic 5d, but could pay around £731 for the 1.6 litre Hyundai i30 1.6 CRDi Blue drive Classic 5d.
• Driver location. Where you live helps determine the level of risk that your car may be stolen or of you being involved in an accident, and this affects the cost of insurance. For example, a 30-year-old in central London may pay £823 for insurance for a Hyundai i30 1.4 SE 5d, while the same 30-year-old in Newcastle may only pay £688.
• Driver age. The younger you are, the more risk you represent to insurers, and the more you’re likely to pay for insurance. The average 20-year-old driver in London may pay £1,454 for the Hyundai i30 1.4 S 5d, while the average 40-year-old Londoner will only pay £762.

Other factors that influence the cost of your insurance include:

• Your marital status
• Your credit history
• Your job title
• Your car’s safety rating score
• The model of your car
• The age of your car
• Your car’s security features
• Annual miles driven and purpose of travel
• Your driving history and activity
• No claims discount

How can I save on my Hyundai i30 car insurance?

Car insurance is a necessary purchase for motorists in the UK, but you don’t want it to cost you a fortune. When searching for insurance, you’ll want to find the best deal for a price that’s within your budget. There are a few things you can try in order to save on your car insurance premium which we’ve listed below.

• Limit your car usage (where possible). Occasionally deciding to walk or get public transport, rather than using your car, can help to save on your premiums.
• Pay annually rather than monthly. Whilst it might be scary to part with a large sum of money in one go, by paying annually you can save an average of £76.24 a year.
• Install extra safety and security features. The safer your car is, the less of a risk it will be for a provider. By adding extra safety measures, you’re likely to lower your premium.
• Shop around at renewal. Although it might be time consuming, when it’s time for renewal make sure you shop around and don’t just settle for the renewal price given to you – there may be cheaper options out there!
