Perfect record, but keeps costing more.
GEICO, a subsidiary of the Berkshire Hathaway Group, is the third-largest U.S. insurer by market share. In addition to auto insurance, GEICO sells homeowners, renters, flood, travel, life, and business insurance, among other products. The insurer offers numerous car insurance discounts to help drivers save. For example, drivers who are accident-free for five years could earn 22% off premiums, and good students could earn 15% off. GEICO’s National Association of Insurance Commissioners complaint index score is below average, meaning it receives fewer consumer complaints than average.
Good rates for good drivers, seniors, and young drivers
Accident forgiveness available
A+ (Superior) financial strength rating from AM Best
High rates for drivers with certain violations, like DUIs
No rideshare or new car replacement coverage available
Lower customer satisfaction scores from J.D. Power

How to ensure you have enough coverage on your Lexus
Because Lexus is a luxury car brand, you can face expensive vehicle repair and replacement costs if you have an accident or experience a loss. It’s critical to ensure that you have robust enough insurance to cover future claims.
Here are standard coverage options to consider:
Bodily injury liability coverage
If you cause an accident, bodily injury liability helps pay for the other driver’s medical treatment. Most states require drivers to have this coverage.
Property damage liability coverage
This coverage pays for repairs and necessary services if you damage another driver’s car. Most states mandate this coverage as part of minimum liability insurance.
Comprehensive coverage
If a non-collision incident damages your car, comprehensive coverage pays for repairs. This can include damage from severe weather, vandalism, fire, theft, and more.
Collision coverage
Regardless of who causes the accident, collision coverage helps pay for your vehicle repairs. If you cause an accident and don’t have this coverage, you must pay for your car repairs out of pocket.
Medical payments coverage
Medical payments coverage can pay for the costs of medical treatment and funeral expenses for you and your passengers following an accident, regardless of fault.
Personal injury protection (PIP) coverage
PIP insurance can cover medical and non-medical expenses related to injury and loss from an accident for you and your passengers.
Uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage
Even though most states mandate liability insurance, some drivers don’t have any or enough coverage. If one of those drivers causes an accident, uninsured/underinsured motorist coverage helps pay for your injuries and vehicle repairs.
Lexus insurance FAQs
As you search for coverage for your Lexus, it’s essential to consider quotes from multiple insurers, as well as their policy options, discount offerings, and customer satisfaction.
Mile Auto offers the cheapest insurance quotes for all Lexus models in the United States. Other affordable options include Farmers and Root. Your age, ZIP code, driving experience, vehicle safety features, and driving record all have an effect on your car insurance rates. You might find better rates with different insurance companies depending on those factors.
It depends on the model. Lexus owners spend an overall average of $139 per month for insurance, which breaks down to $114 per month for liability coverage and $202 for full coverage.
The average insurance premium for a Lexus ES 350 is $116 per month for liability only and $202 for full coverage. Insurance costs for this model are comparable to similar models. The ES isn’t the most or least expensive model to insure.
Most states mandate liability insurance, meaning you must have coverage for your Lexus. But insurance experts typically recommend that drivers with expensive cars opt for a full-coverage policy, which provides additional coverage beyond the minimum requirements and can lead to savings if you need to file a claim.
Methodology
Insurify data scientists analyzed more than 90 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 50+ 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
- Comprehensive coverage with a $1,000 deductible
- Collision coverage with a $1,000 deductible
