Unsatisfied Customer
My agent has had nothing to do with me since she gave me the policy. I’ve asked several times to make changes to my policy with others in the office, and they won’t. My BMW is a classic. I barely drive it. The other vehicle is a 2023 truck 4x4. I’m paying over $200 a month for insurance on them. I’m a senior citizen on a fixed income. I tell them I can’t afford this, but still, they don’t work with me to make some changes. I’ve had no claims. I am looking for another insurance company.

Great Customer Service
Endurance was difficult to work with. They only agreed to cover my car repairs when I mentioned I wanted to cancel the policy, which was not what they informed Cutter Services. This has been the second time they refused to pay anything for my repairs, and I've only submitted three repair jobs since 2023. For the first one, I still had to pay over $300; for the second one, I paid the entire bill of $3,000; and the third repair bill was $7,000, which they denied and has not yet been done. So, I canceled my coverage with Endurance.

Great until I had my first claim in 40 years. USAA has been a nightmare to deal with, and the accident wasn’t even my fault. The costs are being subrogated to State Farm, and USAA still lowballed me and failed to explain the process to a senior citizen.

Why you should compare car insurance quotes in Hawaii

Hawaii raised its liability limits for drivers, so now is a good time to shop around for quotes. Car insurance rates can vary widely based on your specific location, driving record, policy, and the insurance company.

Here’s how to get accurate quotes while ensuring an apples-to-apples comparison:

  • Deductibles: If you’re considering full coverage, use the same deductible amount for every quote.

  • Coverage limits: Use the same coverage types and limits whether you’re getting the state minimum or additional coverages.

  • Driving history: Give your full driving history, including any incidents, to get the most accurate quote.

  • Vehicle: Provide accurate details about your vehicle, including your VIN. Share your estimated mileage for the year and your car’s current mileage.

  • Address: Include your garaging address. Quotes can vary by ZIP code.

  • Quotes: Get at least three auto insurance quotes.

Hawaii car insurance requirements

Drivers must get the state-minimum liability coverage in Hawaii. The minimum requirements in the state as of Jan. 1, 2026, include:

  • $40,000 in bodily injury liability per person, $80,000 per accident

  • $20,000 in property damage liability per accident

  • $10,000 in personal injury protection (PIP)

Hawaii doubled its liability limits at the start of 2026. The state also requires personal injury protection, as it’s a no-fault state.[2]

Agent Tip

“Hawaii’s recent increase of its car insurance minimums provides better coverage to other drivers if you cause an accident. But liability-only coverage doesn’t cover any damage to your car in an at-fault accident. It’s worth considering full coverage if you live in a busy city like Honolulu because of the increased accident risk.”

How to find the cheapest Hawaii car insurance

To find the cheapest car insurance in Hawaii, consider the following tips:

  • Avoid incidents. The state of Hawaii doesn’t allow insurers to use credit history when setting rates for car insurance, but insurers do focus on your driving history.[3] Avoid incidents, such as a speeding ticket or car accident, to keep rates low.

  • Bundle insurance. In Hawaii, the owner-occupied housing unit rate is 63%, according to U.S. census data. Homeowners in the Aloha State may qualify for bundling discounts when getting home and auto insurance from the same company.

  • Take a defensive driving course. Some insurance companies in Hawaii may offer a discount for completing an eligible defensive driving course.

  • Increase your deductible. In 2025, there were 129 traffic fatalities in Hawaii, making it the deadliest year on the road since 2007, according to the Hawaii Department of Transportation.[4] The state can also experience flooding, fires, and other major weather events. For maximum protection, it can make sense to get full coverage with collision and comprehensive coverage. To lower car insurance premiums, increase your deductible.

  • Get several quotes. Shop around and get several car insurance quotes for national insurers such as GEICO, Allstate, and State Farm, as well as local options like Island Insurance.

How car insurance costs have changed in Hawaii

The average annual cost of car insurance in Hawaii was $1,470 in January 2025 and rose to $1,560 by the end of the year. But that trend is shifting, as average costs declined by 2.1%, or $32, in the first half of 2026, according to a recent Insurify report.

Currently, projections indicate a potential increase of 0.5%, or $8, for the second half of 2026 but a 1.5% decrease for the full year. Increases and decreases may be due to inflation and state insurance regulations that double the minimum amount of coverage drivers need.

Methodology

Insurify data scientists analyzed more than 250 million quotes served to car insurance applicants in Insurify’s proprietary database to calculate the premium averages displayed on this page. These premiums are real quotes that come directly from Insurify’s 500+ partner insurance companies in all 50 states and Washington, D.C. Quote averages represent the median price for a quote across the given coverage level, driver subset, and geographic area.

Unless otherwise specified, quoted rates reflect the average cost for drivers between 20 and 70 years old with a clean driving record and average or better credit (a credit score of 600 or higher).

Liability-only premium averages correspond to policies with the following coverage limits:

  • Bodily injury limits between state-minimum rates and $50,000 per person, $100,000 per accident
  • Property damage limits between $10,000 and $50,000
  • No additional coverage
Full-coverage premium averages correspond to the same bodily injury and property damage limits in addition to:
  • Comprehensive coverage with a $1,000 deductible
  • Collision coverage with a $1,000 deductible
