How much does non-owner auto insurance cost in Indiana?
Non-owner insurance is usually cheaper than full coverage car insurance—insurers consider non-owner policyholders as less of a risk because they have limited access to a vehicle.
On average in the U.S., it costs drivers with clean driving records and good credit scores $1,682 per year for a 100/300/100 full coverage insurance policy—$100,000 for injuries you cause in an accident, up to $300,000 per accident, and $100,000 for any damages to property. In Indiana, full coverage car insurance costs $1,184.
Alternatively, non-owner auto insurance costs $353 a year on average in the United States and $263 in Indiana.
But actual rates are based on your age and driving history and also where in Indiana you live.
