How much is insurance on a Toyota RAV4 Prime?

A 2024 Toyota RAV4 Prime runs about $1,790 a year for a typical 45-year-old, $150 less than an average car of the same age, because of fewer injury claims, lower non-crash losses, less damage to others' property, and lower crash-repair losses. Putting a new 16-year-old on a family policy with the RAV4 Prime adds about $1,180 a year (#7 of 26 small SUVs we compare).

Priced for the 2024 RAV4 Prime 4WD, 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 RAV4 Prime's rank is the same in every state.

Why the Toyota RAV4 Prime 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 Toyota RAV4 Prime plug-in hybrid 4dr 4WD, on HLDI's scale where 100 is an average car and lower is better, it reports 89 for crash repairs, 82 for non-crash damage, 86 for damage to others' property, and 75 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 RAV4 Prime comes out about 13% better than average. We count about 40% of that difference, so the part of the bill that fixes the car is about 5% less than average: about $910 a year vs $950. On the liability side, damage to others and injury claims combine to about 20% better than average. We count about half, so that part is about 11% less: $890 a year vs $990.

How the math works

The Toyota RAV4 Prime is a plug-in hybrid (a small SUV by EPA size class) grouped by HLDI with small SUVs, combining dual-powertrain repair costs on the RAV4 Prime with its own loss history.

Our catalog covers the Toyota RAV4 Prime across model years 2021–2027. Full coverage on a used 2022 RAV4 Prime (4–7 years old) runs about $1,680 a year, $110 less than on a 2024. Dropping collision and comprehensive on that 2022 brings liability-only coverage to about $890 a year. Each photo shows that year's generation of the car. Photo credits.

For the 2024 Toyota RAV4 Prime, our catalog lists the RAV4 Prime 4WD configuration at about $1,790 a year.

On a policy of their own with a 2024 Toyota RAV4 Prime, a 22–25-year-old pays about $2,330 a year ($540 more than a 45-year-old), a 26–39-year-old about $1,990, and a driver 65 and older about $1,880.

Adding a 16-year-old with a Toyota RAV4 Prime

Because the Toyota RAV4 Prime starts from lower losses than most cars, adding a new 16-year-old driver raises the family bill by about $1,180 a year ($100 a month), $100 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 $5,140 a year, about $3,960 more than sharing the family policy.

For adding a teen driver, the Toyota RAV4 Prime ranks 26th cheapest out of all 121 models we track. Stepping down to a used 2022 RAV4 Prime (4–7 years old) brings the teen add-on to about $1,110 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.

Among these 26 small SUVs, the Toyota RAV4 Prime is the 7th least expensive to insure. Right next to it are the Mazda CX-5 (about $1,790 a year) and the Hyundai Kona (about $1,800).
