What drives the cost of insuring a Volvo S80

HLDI does not publish loss results for the Volvo S80, so our estimate uses the typical losses of its segment (Luxury car): 0.98× average for liability, 1.40× for collision and 1.25× for comprehensive.

  • Repair and parts costs: Luxury car from a luxury brand — premium parts, sensors and labor rates raise collision claims.
  • Recalls & complaints: 3 NHTSA recall campaigns and 14 owner complaints across its latest three model years. Recalls don't change premiums directly, but open recalls should be fixed.

How we estimate this

We start from the state's average liability, collision and comprehensive premiums published by the NAIC, then apply a location factor (population density and commute time from the Census ACS, weather hazard scores from FEMA's National Risk Index), a vehicle factor (HLDI insurance-loss data where available, otherwise vehicle segment), and a driver-profile multiplier. Results are rounded ranges for comparison, not quotes. Read the full methodology.
