Drivers in Eugene can expect to pay an average of $160 per month for full-coverage car insurance and $92 for liability-only coverage. The city’s liability rates are less than both Oregon’s average of $137 and the national average of $158 per month.

Eugene is the third-largest city in Oregon and home to the University of Oregon — both factors that could result in high rates.[1] But the city’s 250 miles of bicycle trails and walkable downtown area reduce the number of drivers on the roads, resulting in less frequent accidents and relatively affordable insurance costs. You should compare car insurance quotes from multiple insurers to find the best rate.

Quick Facts
  • Mile Auto, Safeco, and National General are the cheapest car insurance companies for Eugene drivers.

  • Oregon is an at-fault state, so a driver who causes an accident is liable for damages.

  • Insurers in Oregon can use your credit history when determining your car insurance rate.

  • Our editorial team spent more than 350 hours developing the Insurify Quality (IQ) Score and scoring insurance companies. The IQ Score objectively analyzes and calculates a score for insurers using more than 15 crucial criteria. The team weighted criteria by importance to the consumer — factors such as customer reviews and affordability influence the score more than availability and third-party ratings.

    We rate each company on a 1 to 10 scale based on five categories: financial ratings, customer satisfaction, affordability, customer support and transparency, and availability. Insurify updates ratings once a year or as more recent information becomes available.

    • Third-party financial ratings: Insurify uses data from AM Best, S&P, Moody’s, and more to compare insurance companies’ credit and ability to pay out future claims.
    • Customer satisfaction: To calculate this score, Insurify analyzed more than 28,000 customer reviews across 155 car insurance companies. We also consider third-party ratings from J.D. Power, the National Association of Insurance Commissioners, and Trustpilot.
    • Affordability: Our data scientists analyzed more than 90 million real-time auto insurance rates from our partners across the U.S., as well as available discounts, to calculate an affordability score.
    • Customer support and transparency: This measures coverage options, ease of claims filing, and the insurer's transparency surrounding discounts, coverages, and claims process.
    • Availability and reach: Insurify scores availability and reach by identifying the number of states in which insurers offer coverage and company size by market share.

With a pay-per-mile structure, Mile Auto is a good choice for people who drive fewer than 10,000 miles per year. Mile Auto’s website states it can help low-mileage drivers save 30% to 40% off their current rates. You only need to send in a picture of your odometer to report your mileage. Keep in mind, though, that some financing companies that require borrowers to have full coverage policies may not accept pay-per-mile insurance.

Pros

  • No tracking device

Cons
  • Available in only 11 states

  • Has limited coverage options

Not pleased

Don't opt for this insurance if you're on a budget. I was unaware that this was a cost-per-mile insurance. I was never informed about it, and now I'm paying an extra $20 for roadside assistance that I thought was included. I had mentioned to the representative that I couldn't afford expensive insurance, yet the cost has increased.

Mixed Review

Mixed. One representative was confusing and couldn't guide me regarding a text I received which stated my payment, which I had been informed had been processed, had actually gone through. To ensure I was covered, I made the payment. The previous representative had been professional and direct. So, I have a mixed reaction.

How to get the cheapest car insurance in Eugene

Insurers set premiums by estimating the likelihood you’ll make a claim. They consider various factors in determining the likelihood of a covered incident, such as your age, driving history, and location. You’ll want to do all you can to present a low risk to get the most affordable coverage. Here are some of the steps you can take:

  • Shop around. Rates can vary dramatically between insurers. It’s crucial to shop around and get quotes from multiple companies to know you’re getting the best deal for your needs.

  • Increase your deductible. Your collision and comprehensive deductibles are an amount you must pay before your insurer pays a covered claim. Increasing your deductible may lower your insurance bill but increase your out-of-pocket costs in the event of an accident. Liability coverage doesn't have a deductible.

  • Improve your credit score. Insurers in Oregon can use your credit history when setting rates, and they often perceive people with poor credit as riskier and adjust rates accordingly. Improving your credit history can help lower your insurance costs.

  • Apply for discounts. Insurance companies usually offer various discounts that can help you save money on your auto policy, such as good student and defensive driver discounts.

  • Bundle your home and auto insurance policies. Many insurers offer discounts if you bundle your auto insurance with homeowners, renters, or life insurance.

Cheapest car insurance for drivers with an incident

Drivers with incidents like speeding tickets, driving under the influence, or at-fault accidents on their records will typically see their insurance premiums increase for three to five years. Insurers view these situations as evidence that a motorist is more likely to be in a crash and make a claim for damages.

The premium increases can be substantial after an incident. But some insurers impose smaller premium increases than others, which is why it’s so important to compare insurance companies before buying a policy.

Cheapest car insurance for drivers with a speeding ticket: Mile Auto

Speeding drivers are more likely to get into an accident, and high-speed accidents are more likely to be serious and costly. As a result, a speeding ticket can lead to higher insurance premiums. The cost increases can vary by insurer, though.

In Eugene, the average cost of car insurance for drivers with speeding tickets is $242 per month for full coverage and $139 for liability policies. The following table illustrates how speeding infractions affect liability car insurance rates from some top insurers serving Eugene drivers.

Cheapest car insurance for drivers with an at-fault accident: Mile Auto

Having an at-fault accident on your driving record will typically result in your insurer increasing your rates. This is because insurance companies consider drivers who have caused an accident to be higher-risk than drivers with clean records. Purchasing accident forgiveness coverage can help keep your rate steady following your first at-fault accident.

Eugene drivers with at-fault accidents see average monthly rates of $140 for minimum coverage and $243 for full coverage. Here are average liability rates in Eugene for drivers with at-fault accidents.

Cheapest car insurance for drivers with a DUI: Mile Auto

Impaired drivers are far more likely to be in accidents, so it’s not surprising that a DUI can result in a substantial increase in insurance premiums.[3] If you're convicted of driving under the influence, your insurer could cancel your policy mid-term, or decide not to renew it at the end of your policy term. Some insurers may refuse to cover you altogether, while some actually specialize in DUI coverage.

A DUI pushes average car insurance rates in Eugene to $275 per month for full coverage and $158 for liability-only policies. Here's how a DUI affects liability rates for Eugene drivers.

Around age 70, car insurance rates begin to increase slightly. Age-related changes in physical and cognitive abilities can put senior drivers at greater risk of getting into an accident.

The average cost of car insurance for senior drivers in Eugene is $66 per month for minimum coverage and $115 for full coverage. Here are average monthly rates from some top Eugene insurers for senior drivers.

Cheapest car insurance for teens: Mile Auto

Teen drivers are statistically the most likely to be in car crashes. Their inexperience and propensity toward dangerous driving behaviors mean teens present a high risk to insurers, so insurers charge them higher premiums.[4]

Teen drivers can help keep costs down by maintaining a clean driving record, remaining on their parents’ insurance as long as possible, driving a safe car, completing a defensive driving course, and taking advantage of good student discounts. Teens younger than 18 can't legally get their own policies without written consent from a parent or guardian.

In Eugene, teen drivers see average monthly rates of $311 for full coverage and $179 for liability-only policies. Here are some of the average monthly auto insurance quotes for teen drivers in Eugene.

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

Quotes for Allstate, Farmers, GEICO, State Farm, and USAA are estimates based on Quadrant Information Services’ database of auto insurance rates.
