Like insurance policies for other vehicle makes and models, there are a range of factors influencing your Toyota car insurance quote. This can include:

Your age. Generally, young or inexperienced drivers will be charged a higher premium, as they are statistically riskier drivers and thus more likely to potentially make a car insurance claim. 

Your gender. Similarly, male drivers are usually seen as riskier on the roads than their female counterparts, and will be hit with a slightly higher premium. 

Your postcode. Where you live can impact your Toyota car insurance quote, as different states, cities and even suburbs can have very different road crash statistics and crime levels and thus be seen as riskier places to drive and park your car. 

Your car’s colour. It may sound superficial, but the colour of your car can affect your insurance premium. This comes down to things like colour influencing visibility and thus impacting crash risk, or the probability that a certain colour car might be stolen. 

In the scheme of things, you may be able to find relatively affordable car insurance for Toyotas in Australia. Mozo’s 2020 Car Insurance Report found the national average cost of comprehensive car insurance was $952.
