Top 20 Cheapest Cars to Insure for 2011
The price of your new car is only one factor when it comes to the overall cost.
Many people forget about costs such as insurance, fuel, depreciation, and repairs.
Over the life of your vehicle, these costs usually end up being more than what you originally paid for the car - so it pays to do some research before you buy.
Insure.com has just released their list of the cheapest cars to insure for 2011.
Minivans, compact crossovers, and SUVs top the list for the cheapest cars to insure while sports cars and luxury cars are the most expensive.
The main factors that affect the cost of insurance include the cost of repair, the typical driving behavior of owners for that particular car, and overall safety.
It's not surprising that minivans such as the Chrysler Town & Country made it to the top of the list.
