What drives the cost of insuring a Nissan Versa

The strongest predictor of what insurers charge for a specific model is its claims history. HLDI publishes relative insurance losses for recent models (2022-2024), where 100 is the average of all passenger vehicles. The Nissan Versa's results put our vehicle factor at 1.33× for liability, 1.12× for collision and 0.76× for comprehensive.

  • Repair and parts costs: Compact car — mainstream parts availability keeps repairs moderate.
  • Safety: 5-star NHTSA overall rating (frontal 4★, side 5★, rollover 4★) — better occupant protection lowers injury-claim costs.
  • Recalls & complaints: 1 NHTSA recall campaigns and 144 owner complaints across its latest three model years. Recalls don't change premiums directly, but open recalls should be fixed.

Results are rounded ranges for comparison, not quotes. Read the full methodology.
