Changing car insurance: How pensioners, commuters and new drivers can save

As a comparison by Check24 shows, consumers, especially new drivers, commuters, pensioners and electric car drivers, can save a lot of money by changing their vehicle insurance this year. According to the comparison portal, you can save several hundred euros by switching to a cheaper tariff. The exact amounts depend on various factors such as age, vehicle model and mileage.

One example from the comparison concerns a novice driver with a Smart Fortwo Coupe. You can achieve savings by changing insurance on January 1st, 2023. Another case concerns a commuter with an Opel Astra-J, where the savings potential is up to 790 euros. Pensioners can also save on car insurance, for example with a Mercedes-Benz E 200 CDI. Even electric car drivers can benefit from changing insurance, as the example of a Fiat 500 e shows.

Given the rising prices in the motor vehicle insurance industry, it is advisable to regularly compare rates and change providers if necessary. According to Michael Roloff, managing director of motor vehicle insurance at Check24, premiums are expected to increase by an average of over ten percent. This is due to rising spare parts prices and more expensive cars. It is therefore likely that consumers are no longer looking for cheap contracts, but rather for policies where price increases are limited. It is therefore worth comparing tariffs to save money in the long term.
