Compare insurance coverage price quotes online
Getting a more affordable price on 2016 Ford Fusion Hybrid insurance doesn’t have to be difficult. Drivers just need to spend a little time to compare rate quotes to find the company with affordable insurance quotes. Shoppers can get rates using a couple different methods.
One of the simplest ways to find low rates would be an industry-wide quote request form like this one (opens in new window). This quick form keeps you from doing separate quotation requests for every prospective company. A single, simple form will return quotes from multiple companies.
A more difficult way to obtain and compare quotes online consists of visiting each company website and go through the quote process again. For examples sake, we’ll pretend you want comparison quotes from USAA, Farmers and Geico. To get each rate you have to take the time to go to each site and punch in your information repeatedly, and that explains why we recommend the first method.

More affordable rates with these car insurance discounts
Insurance can be prohibitively expensive, but you might be missing out on some discounts that can drop the cost substantially. Many of these discounts will be applied automatically when you quote, but some discounts are required to be inquired about prior to receiving the credit.
- Use Seat Belts – Drivers who require all vehicle occupants to use a seat belt can save 10% or more off the medical payments premium.
- Pay Early and Save – If you pay your entire premium ahead of time instead of making monthly payments you can avoid monthly service charges.
- Life Insurance – Not every insurance company offers life insurance, but if they do you may earn lower car insurancerates if you buy a life policy as well.
- Military Discounts – Having a deployed family member could qualify you for better prices.
- Early Switch Discount – Some insurance companies reward drivers for signing up before your current expiration date. You can save around 10% with this discount.
Remember that most discount credits are not given to all coverage premiums. Some only reduce individual premiums such as liability and collision coverage. Despite the fact that it seems like all those discounts means the company will pay you, that’s just not realistic.

How insurance providers calculate Ford Fusion Hybrid insurance costs
Lots of things are considered when you get your auto insurance bill. Some are pretty understandable such as traffic violations, although some other factors are not quite as obvious like your continuous coverage and annual miles driven.One of the most helpful ways to save on insurance is to to have a grasp of the rating factors that go into determining the level of your policy premiums. When you know what positively or negatively determines base rates, this helps enable you to make changes that can earn you lower rates.
- Insurance rates in urban areas – Living in less populated areas of the country is a good thing when it comes to insurance. Less people living in that area means a lower chance of having an accident in addition to fewer liability claims. People in densly populated areas have more road rage incidents and more time behind the wheel. More time behind the wheel translates into higher accident risk.
- High deductibles cost less – Physical damage insurance, otherwise known as comp (or other than collision) and collision, protects your Ford from damage. Some coverage claims could be running into the backend of another car, vandalism, and having your car stolen. Deductibles for physical damage state the amount of money you are required to spend in the event of a claim. The more you pay before a claim is paid (deductible), the lower your rates will be on Fusion Hybrid coverage.
- Pleasure use or commuting – Driving a lot of miles every year the higher your rate. A lot of companies apply a rate based on their usage. Autos that sit idle most of the time receive better premium rates as compared to vehicles used primarily for driving to work. Double check that your insurance coverage states the right rating data. Incorrect rating for your Fusion Hybrid may be wasting your money.
- Is you occupation costing you more? – Did you know your job can affect your rates? Jobs such as judgesair traffic controllers and medical professionals are shown to have the highest rates attributed to high stress levels and long work hours. Conversely, careers such as scientists, students and the unemployed receive lower rates on Fusion Hybrid coverage.
- How much liability protection – Your policy’s liability coverage provides coverage if ever you are responsible for causing damage or personal injury in an accident. It provides for a legal defense to attempt to prove you were not liable. Liability insurance is quite affordable when compared to the cost of physical damage coverage, so do not cut corners here.
Auto insurance can get complicated
When choosing proper insurance coverage for your personal vehicles, there really is not a cookie cutter policy. Every situation is different and a cookie cutter policy won’t apply. For example, these questions might help in determining whether or not you might need professional guidance.

- What is roadside assistance coverage?
- Where can I find high-risk insurance?
- How do I insure my teen driver?
- Do I have coverage when pulling a U-Haul trailer?
- Am I covered when renting a car or should I buy coverage from the car rental agency?
- What happens if I owe more than my 2016 Ford Fusion Hybrid is worth?
- Does my policy cover my teen driver if they drive my company car?
- Is business property covered if stolen from my car?
If you don’t know the answers to these questions, then you may want to think about talking to a licensed agent. To find an agent in your area, complete this form or you can also visit this page to select a carrier It is quick, free and can help protect your family.

Car insurance coverage options for a 2016 Ford Fusion Hybrid
Learning about specific coverages of a car insurance policy can help you determine the right coverages for your vehicles. Car insurance terms can be difficult to understand and reading a policy is terribly boring. Shown next are typical coverage types found on the average car insurance policy.
Collision protection
This coverage will pay to fix damage to your Fusion Hybrid resulting from a collision with a stationary object or other vehicle. A deductible applies and the rest of the damage will be paid by collision coverage.
Collision insurance covers things like scraping a guard rail, hitting a parking meter, crashing into a building, colliding with another moving vehicle and hitting a mailbox. This coverage can be expensive, so consider removing coverage from older vehicles. It’s also possible to choose a higher deductible to save money on collision insurance.
Auto liability insurance
Liability coverage provides protection from damage or injury you incur to people or other property that is your fault. This coverage protects you from claims by other people. It does not cover 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 liability limits of 50/100/50 which means a $50,000 limit per person for injuries, a total of $100,000 of bodily injury coverage per accident, and $50,000 of coverage for damaged propery.
Liability insurance covers claims like pain and suffering, medical services, medical expenses, court costs and emergency aid. The amount of liability coverage you purchase is a decision to put some thought into, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as large an amount as possible.
Comprehensive auto coverage
This covers damage OTHER than collision with another vehicle or object. You first have to pay a deductible and the remainder of the damage will be paid by comprehensive coverage.
Comprehensive can pay for things such as hitting a bird, a broken windshield and damage from a tornado or hurricane. The maximum payout your car insurance company will pay is the market value of your vehicle, so if your deductible is as high as the vehicle’s value it’s not worth carrying full coverage.
UM/UIM (Uninsured/Underinsured Motorist) coverage
Your UM/UIM coverage gives you protection when other motorists either have no liability insurance or not enough. Covered losses include hospital bills for your injuries and damage to your Ford Fusion Hybrid.
Since many drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, their liability coverage can quickly be exhausted. So UM/UIM coverage is very important.
Medical payments and PIP coverage
Med pay and PIP coverage kick in for immediate expenses like hospital visits, funeral costs and ambulance fees. The coverages can be used to cover expenses not covered by your health insurance plan or if you do not have health coverage. Coverage applies to not only the driver but also the vehicle occupants in addition to if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP coverage is not available in all states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
Saving money makes a lot of cents
When trying to cut insurance costs, never sacrifice coverage to reduce premiums. In many instances, consumers will sacrifice uninsured motorist or liability limits only to find out they didn’t have enough coverage. The ultimate goal is to get the best coverage possible at an affordable rate, but do not skimp to save money.
Throughout this article, we presented many tips how you can save on 2016 Ford Fusion Hybrid insurance. The most important thing to understand is the more rate comparisons you have, the more likely it is that you will get a better rate. Consumers could even find that the most savings is with the least-expected company. Smaller companies may cover specific market segments cheaper as compared to the big name companies such as Allstate or State Farm.
Some insurance companies may not provide rates over the internet and usually these regional carriers prefer to sell through independent insurance agencies. Lower-priced insurance coverage can be sourced both online and from local agencies, and you should compare price quotes from both in order to have the best price selection to choose from.
