Have you finally had enough of scraping nickels together to pay your insurance bill each month? Your situation is no different than millions of other consumers.
Unbelievable but true, most insurance customers kept their policy with the same company for more than four years, and virtually 40% of consumers have never shopped around. Most drivers in Arizona can save roughly $730 each year, but they just don’t understand the amount of savings they would get if they switch to a new company.
Consumers have so many insurers to pick from, and even though it’s nice to have a choice, it makes it harder to compare rates and find the lowest cost insurance.
It’s important to quote other rates yearly since rates trend upward over time. Just because you found the best premium rates on Kia K900 insurance in Phoenix a year ago you can probably find a better price now. Forget anything you know (or think you know) about insurance because we’re going to show you the only way to reduce your cost while increasing coverage.
Get cheap Kia K900 insurance in Phoenix with discounts
Car insurance is not cheap, but there may be some discounts that you may not know about. Many discounts should be triggered when you complete an application, but lesser-known reductions have to be asked for before they will apply.
- Bundle and Save – If you have multiple policies and insure them both with the same insurance company they may give you a discount of up to 20% off your total K900 insurance premium.
- Low Mileage Discounts – Maintaining low annual mileage may enable drivers to earn slightly better rates than normal.
- Active Service Discounts – Being deployed with a military unit could mean lower prices.
- Defensive Driver – Taking time to complete a course that instructs on driving safety may get you a small discount and easily recoup the cost of the course.
- Discount for Good Grades – Being a good student may save you up to 25%. The good student discount can last until age 25.
- Anti-lock Brakes – Cars, trucks, and SUVs with ABS braking systems or traction control have fewer accidents so you can save 10 percent or more.
- Driving Data Discount – People who choose to allow their insurance company to scrutinize vehicle usage by using a telematic data system such as Progressive’s Snapshot and State Farm’s In-Drive could possibly reduce rates if they show good driving skills.
Discounts reduce rates, but you should keep in mind that many deductions do not apply to the whole policy. Most cut the price of certain insurance coverages like liability and collision coverage. Just because you may think you would end up receiving a 100% discount, it’s just not the way it works.
A few popular companies and a partial list of their discounts are included below.
- Progressive has savings for multi-policy, online signing, good student, homeowner, multi-vehicle, continuous coverage, and online quote discount.
- GEICO offers discounts for membership and employees, anti-theft, driver training, defensive driver, and good student.
- State Farm has discounts for multiple autos, driver’s education, student away at school, safe vehicle, and Drive Safe & Save.
- Esurance offers discounts including paid-in-full, DriveSense, anti-theft, claim free, homeowner, online quote, and multi-car.
- The Hartford discounts include air bag, anti-theft, defensive driver, bundle, vehicle fuel type, driver training, and good student.
Before you buy a policy, ask every company to apply every possible discount. Some discounts listed above might not be available to policyholders in every state.

Auto insurance coverage options for a Kia K900
Understanding the coverages of your auto insurance policy aids in choosing the right coverages for your vehicles. Policy terminology can be confusing and coverage can change by endorsement. Listed below are typical coverage types available from auto insurance companies.
Medical payments and PIP coverage
Coverage for medical payments and/or PIP reimburse you for short-term medical expenses like pain medications, prosthetic devices and nursing services. They are utilized in addition to your health insurance program or if you lack health insurance entirely. Medical payments and PIP cover not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants as well as if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP is not an option in every state but can be used in place of medical payments coverage
Comprehensive auto coverage
Comprehensive insurance coverage pays for damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first have to pay a deductible then the remaining damage will be covered by your comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive coverage pays for things like hail damage, damage from getting keyed, fire damage and vandalism. The maximum payout a auto insurance company will pay at claim time is the actual cash value, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
Coverage for collisions
Collision insurance will pay to fix damage to your K900 from colliding with another car or object. A deductible applies and then insurance will cover the remainder.
Collision insurance covers claims like backing into a parked car, damaging your car on a curb, hitting a parking meter and colliding with a tree. This coverage can be expensive, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from older vehicles. Drivers also have the option to bump up the deductible on your K900 to bring the cost down.
UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage
Your UM/UIM coverage protects you and your vehicle when the “other guys” either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered losses include injuries sustained by your vehicle’s occupants as well as your vehicle’s damage.
Since many Arizona drivers have only the minimum liability required by law (which is 15/30/10), their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. That’s why carrying high Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist coverage is very important. Normally your uninsured/underinsured motorist coverages are similar to your liability insurance amounts.
Auto liability
This coverage will cover injuries or damage you cause to other people or property in an accident. It protects YOU against claims from other people, and does not provide coverage for damage to your own property or vehicle.
Liability coverage has three limits: bodily injury for each person, bodily injury for the entire accident, and a limit for property damage. Your policy might show limits of 15/30/10 which stand for a $15,000 limit per person for injuries, a limit of $30,000 in injury protection per accident, and property damage coverage for $10,000. Alternatively, you may have a combined single limit or CSL which limits claims to one amount rather than limiting it on a per person basis.
Liability coverage pays for claims like medical services, loss of income, funeral expenses, medical expenses and pain and suffering. How much liability coverage do you need? That is your choice, but buy as much as you can afford. Arizona requires minimum liability limits of 15/30/10 but you should think about purchasing higher limits.
Persistence is the key to cheaper rates
Lower-priced insurance in Phoenix is definitely available on the web and also from your neighborhood Phoenix agents, so you need to quote Phoenix car insurance with both in order to have the best price selection to choose from. Some companies may not provide internet price quotes and most of the time these small insurance companies provide coverage only through independent agents.
We’ve covered many ways to lower your Kia K900 insurance prices in Phoenix. It’s most important to understand that the more price quotes you have, the higher your chance of finding low cost Phoenix car insurance quotes. You may even discover the best price on insurance is with a company that doesn’t do a lot of advertising. Smaller companies may have significantly lower rates on certain market segments as compared to the big name companies such as Allstate and Progressive.
