What people pay in Wyoming
A typical yearly price today
about $1,400 a year (about $115 a month)
Wyoming's average full-coverage cost in 2023 was $1,180, according to the National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC). Car insurance prices nationally have risen about 18% since then (government price index, August 2026), so we start from about $1,400.
That makes Wyoming the 13th least expensive of the 50 states and DC. Nationally, the average was $1,439.
It's an average across every kind of driver and car, not your price. Your car, your driving record, and how much coverage you carry move it up or down.
Wyoming next to its neighbors
A typical policy in Wyoming costs more than in Idaho and South Dakota and less than in Colorado, Montana, Nebraska, and Utah.
| State | Typical price, 2023 | Moving to Wyoming from there |
|---|---|---|
| Wyoming | $1,180 | Not a move |
| Colorado | $1,655 | About $650 less a year |
| Idaho | $981 | About $270 more a year |
| Montana | $1,184 | About the same |
| Nebraska | $1,184 | About the same |
| South Dakota | $1,158 | About the same |
| Utah | $1,285 | About $140 less a year |
| National average | $1,439 | Not a move |
The move is the What-if page's starting example: a 40–64-year-old with a clean record and a 2020 Toyota Camry, full coverage, in the suburbs, with nothing else changed. Only the two states' typical prices make the difference, so a real move can come out differently.
The least insurance Wyoming's law asks for
- Liability (per person / per crash / property)
- $25,000 / $50,000 / $20,000
- Personal injury protection (PIP)
- Not required
- Medical payments
- Not required
- No-fault
- No
- Uninsured motorist
- Included unless you decline
- Underinsured motorist
- Not required
Liability pays for injuries and damage you cause to others, up to these limits. A minimum is the least the law allows, not a recommendation, and it doesn't pay to fix your own car.
Liability-only coverage, the closest NAIC figure to what a minimum policy costs, averaged $390 in Wyoming in 2023 (about $460 today, brought up the same rough way), the 5th lowest of the 50 states and DC. That's about 33% of the full-coverage price; the rest pays to fix or replace your own car.
Wyoming requires at least $25,000 per person and $50,000 per crash for injuries, plus $20,000 for property damage. Uninsured-motorist coverage comes with your policy unless you turn it down.
Good to know: The law lets you turn down uninsured motorist coverage without saying the first refusal has to be in writing, so it's marked "included unless you decline."
What we couldn’t confirm: We found no underinsured motorist requirement in the traffic laws, but we didn't check the insurance code for a rule that insurers must offer it.
- Uninsured and underinsured motorist
- Uninsured motorist coverage for injuries is at least $25,000/$50,000. There's no property-damage requirement.

A new teen driver in Wyoming
Adding a 16-year-old to a typical policy
about $920 more a year
About $75 a month, on one average car with full coverage. The whole policy with the teen: roughly $1,750–$3,050 a year.
On a policy of their own, with the same kind of car, the same teen would pay about $4,010 a year in Wyoming (roughly $3,050–$5,700).
What adding a teen costs comes from California's published prices, so the range is wide, and Wyoming may differ. How adding a teen driver works.
Cars that cost the least to add a teen with
In Wyoming, the 2022 Subaru Forester is the cheapest of the 33 cars on the site's popular lists to add a teen with: about $820 more a year. At the other end of the same lists, the 2022 Tesla Model 3 costs about $1,390 more a year.
| Car | Added to your policy | On their own policy |
|---|---|---|
| 2022 Subaru Forester | +$820 a year | $3,580 a year |
| 2022 Subaru Outback | +$830 a year | $3,590 a year |
| 2022 Subaru Crosstrek | +$830 a year | $3,600 a year |
| 2022 Honda CR-V | +$890 a year | $3,850 a year |
| 2022 Toyota RAV4 | +$900 a year | $3,920 a year |
The order is the same in every state, because our car data is national. What changes from state to state is the price level.
Why these cars cost less, and what this doesn't cover.
“Try it with your own car” opens your own situation in Wyoming (a 2020 Toyota Camry if you haven't set one) with a new 16-year-old. It starts from that car, not an average one, so its figure can differ from the one above.
Where these numbers come from
- Typical prices: National Association of Insurance Commissioners (NAIC), 2022/2023 Auto Insurance Database Report, 2023 data, brought up to today with the government's price index for car insurance.
- The law: Wyoming's own statute or insurance department, listed above with the date we checked it.
- Teen drivers and cars: the same math as the rest of the site. Here's how we got these, and every source.
