How much is insurance on a Chevrolet Tahoe?

A 2024 Chevrolet Tahoe runs about $1,830 a year for a typical 45-year-old, $110 less than an average car of the same age, because of lower crash-repair losses, lower non-crash losses, and fewer injury claims. Putting a new 16-year-old on a family policy with the Tahoe adds about $1,210 a year (#3 of 4 large SUVs we compare).

2024 Chevrolet Tahoe (Tahoe 2WD), national average

about $1,830 a year (about $155 a month)

Estimated range: $1,350–$2,450. Actual quotes can fall outside it.

An average car of the same age (what HLDI's 2022–24 results measure against) runs about $1,940 a year. A used 2013 Tahoe drops to about $1,500 (see the table below).

Priced for the 2024 Tahoe 2WD, the newest year covered by HLDI's loss data (2022–24 models), for a 45-year-old driver with a clean record and full coverage. HLDI's results combine drivers of all ages. We apply them to one example driver (a 45-year-old with a clean record) so pages are comparable; they aren't specific to 45-year-olds. Each state raises or lowers every car's price by the same percentage, so the Tahoe's rank is the same in every state.

Why the Chevrolet Tahoe costs what it does

What HLDI reports (2022–24 models, all drivers combined)

The Highway Loss Data Institute (HLDI) compares each model's insurance losses with an average car's. For the Chevrolet Tahoe 4dr, on HLDI's scale where 100 is an average car and lower is better, it reports 79 for crash repairs, 79 for non-crash damage, 107 for damage to others' property, and 86 for injury claims.

What we estimate that means for price

Prices move less than loss results do: a car's loss record is only one of many things insurers weigh, and each weighs it differently. So we count only part of HLDI's difference. Combining crash repairs and non-crash damage (weighted about 71% and 29%, the share each makes up of industry claim costs), the Tahoe comes out about 21% better than average. We count about 40% of that difference, so the part of the bill that fixes the car is about 9% less than average: about $870 a year vs $950. On the liability side, damage to others and injury claims combine to about 5% better than average. We count about half, so that part is about 3% less: $970 a year vs $990.

How the math works

In EPA size classes, the Tahoe is a standard SUV (gas-powered). In Highway Loss Data Institute loss tables, the Chevrolet Tahoe is benchmarked against large SUVs.

A used Chevrolet Tahoe, by model year

One model year per age group. Liability only: no coverage for the car itself. Teen columns: a new 16-year-old. Each row uses the HLDI report that covers that model year.

2024 Tahoe 2WD (0–3 years old)about $1,830about $970+$1,210
2022 Tahoe 2WD (4–7 years old)about $1,730about $970+$1,140

2013 Tahoe 1500 2WD (13 or more years old)about $1,500about $930+$990

Our catalog covers the Chevrolet Tahoe across model years 2006–2027. Full coverage on a used 2013 Tahoe (13 or more years old) runs about $1,500 a year, $330 less than on a 2024. Dropping collision and comprehensive on that 2013 brings liability-only coverage to about $930 a year. Each photo shows that year's generation of the car. Photo credits.

All 2 versions of the 2024 Chevrolet Tahoe in our catalog (Tahoe 4WD and Tahoe 2WD) price within about $50 a year of each other.

On a policy of their own with a 2024 Chevrolet Tahoe, a 22–25-year-old pays about $2,380 a year ($550 more than a 45-year-old), a 26–39-year-old about $2,030, and a driver 65 and older about $1,920.

Adding a 16-year-old with a Chevrolet Tahoe

Because the Chevrolet Tahoe starts from lower losses than most cars, adding a new 16-year-old driver raises the family bill by about $1,210 a year ($100 a month), $70 less than adding a teen with an average car of the same age. Putting that 16-year-old on a policy of their own instead costs about $5,260 a year, about $4,050 more than sharing the family policy.

For adding a teen driver, the Chevrolet Tahoe ranks 37th cheapest out of all 121 models we track. Stepping down to a used 2013 Tahoe (13 or more years old) brings the teen add-on to about $990 a year.

That increase is how much the family bill goes up with a new 16-year-old driving this car. Cheapest cars to insure for a teen.

Similar large SUVs

Among these 4 large SUVs, the Chevrolet Tahoe is the 2nd most expensive to insure. Right next to it are the Ford Expedition (about $1,730 a year) and the Dodge Durango (about $2,060).
