Finder Score for car insurance

We 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.

What additional cover options are available?

On top of standard inclusions, TrueCover has a few optional add-ons:

  • Hire car cover. If your car is involved in an incident, it will cover a hire car for up to 14 days, up to a daily rate of $50 per day. This is a similar level of coverage to other insurers, though some have a higher daily rate of around $70.
  • Car contents cover. It will cover up to $2,000 for the loss or damage to personal items during an incident. Some policies automatically include cover for personal belongings.
  • Windscreen cover. This will cover you for up to $1,000 for the repair or replacement of your front windscreen. TrueCover will reduce your excess to $50 for this.
