Comprehensive car insurance is the only type of car insurance that will cover your own car as well as other people's property. If you want to protect your own vehicle against accidental damage then comprehensive cover is what you're after.
Our car insurance experts have selected a bunch of comprehensive car insurers that we consider best in class, based on extensive research. Whether you prioritise price, features, customer service or something else — there's a pick for you. Remember, the below should be used as a guide only and you should always read the product disclosure statement (PDS) to know if it's right for you.

How we picked theseWe analyse over 30 car insurance products across insurance providers, and rate each one for price and features. We collect up to 36 quotes per product, for male and female drivers in New South Wales, Victoria, Queensland, South Australia, Tasmania and Western Australia. Quotes are collected for 20 year olds, 30 year olds and 60 year olds, assuming an excess of $850 for a 2020 Toyota Corolla 4 door sedan model, with an average 15,000 kms driven each year. We use your responses to our quiz to pair you with the closest price profile and while we are not allowed to display actual quotes, our price score aims to serve as an indicative guide to how cost competitive a product might be for you.
Our feature score assesses each product for more than 15 features across loss and damage coverage, repairs and assistance coverage, personal items coverage and policy coverage. Features we assess include but are not limited to legal liability, essential repairs, new car replacement, car hire events, roadside assistance, agreed or market value, windscreen damage and natural disaster coverage.
Depending on your answers to our car insurance quiz, we upweight the relevant price score or feature score to generate a dynamic Finder Score (80% weighting on the primary selection between Price or Feature). Finder Score, Price Score and Feature Score are only to be used as indicative guides and are not product recommendations.
To give you an idea of how much comprehensive car insurance might cost, we've broken down prices by different ages. However, the best car insurance for you may be determined by more than cost.
Keep in mind, costs differ based on your individual circumstances.
