How Much Does It Cost to Insure a Dodge Grand Caravan?
Average insurance rates for a Dodge Grand Caravan — and any other vehicle — depend on the policy type and coverage level you choose. Most states require you to maintain certain minimum amounts of liability insurance to legally drive.[1]
But while it’s less expensive than full coverage, a liability policy doesn’t cover damage to your vehicle in an accident. Full coverage, on the other hand, typically includes comprehensive and collision coverage that protect your vehicle.
The table below shows the average monthly rates for a Dodge Grand Caravan with different coverage levels, as well as how each compares to the national average for all vehicles, according to Compare.com data.
Vehicle ▲▼ | Average Monthly Premium: Liability ▲▼ | Average Monthly Premium: Full Coverage ▲▼ | Average Monthly Premium: All Policies ▲▼ |
---|---|---|---|
Dodge Grand Caravan | $81 | $148 | $114 |
All vehicles | $107 | $197 | $152 |
We found that Grand Caravan drivers pay an average monthly rate of $81 for liability-only coverage and $148 for full coverage.

Let’s take a look at how your age affects the cost of your auto insurance.
Dodge Grand Caravan Insurance Rates by Age
One of the most important rating factors insurers use for auto insurance is your age. Young drivers typically pay the most because of inexperience behind the wheel and risky behaviors that increase the risk of accidents, according to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA).[3]
But with age comes maturity, driving experience, and more responsible driving, often resulting in lower insurance premiums. Rates tend to increase for seniors older than 70, though. As you age, your reaction time slows, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC),[4] which can be a risk factor for accidents.
The following table shows the average monthly Dodge Grand Caravan premium for each age group, the cheapest insurance company, and its corresponding premium.
Age Group ▲▼ | Average Monthly Premium ▲▼ | Cheapest Insurer ▲▼ | Cheapest Insurer’s Average Monthly Premium ▲▼ |
---|---|---|---|
Teens | $215 | Certainly | $97 |
20s | $147 | Certainly | $67 |
30s | $114 | Certainly | $52 |
40s | $105 | Certainly | $47 |
50s | $94 | Certainly | $43 |
60s | $88 | Certainly | $40 |
70s | $95 | Certainly | $43 |
Unsurprisingly, teen drivers pay the most among Grand Caravan drivers, averaging $215 per month, according to Compare.com data. But fortunately, rates drop substantially in your 20s and 30s, trending down through your 60s. Then, there’s a slight increase starting in your 70s.
Dodge Grand Caravan Insurance Rates by Driving Record
Your driving record is another factor that significantly affects your insurance policy premium. If you have a ticket, accident, or DUI on your record, you’re more likely to file claims, making you riskier to insure. Insurance companies charge more for high-risk drivers to cover that risk.
The table below shows the average monthly rate to insure a Grand Caravan if you have a clean record and what you’ll pay if you have a history of infractions. It also includes the cheapest insurance company for each driving profile and its average monthly rate, according to Compare.com data.
Driving Record ▲▼ | Average Monthly Premium ▲▼ | Cheapest Insurer ▲▼ | Cheapest Insurer’s Average Monthly Premium ▲▼ |
---|---|---|---|
Clean record | $114 | Certainly | $52 |
Speeding ticket | $159 | Certainly | $72 |
At-fault accident | $166 | Certainly | $75 |
DUI | $188 | Certainly | $85 |
Insurance rates rise quite a bit if you cause an accident or get a DUI, and having a blemish on your driving record can make it harder to find a cheap rate.
It may be worth shopping around, starting with Certainly. Our research shows it has the cheapest average premium for high-risk drivers, regardless of driving history.
Dodge Grand Caravan Features and Options That Affect Insurance Rates
The Dodge Grand Caravan has below-average insurance rates. Several factors contribute to these lower rates, including:
Widely available parts: Although Dodge discontinued the Grand Caravan in 2020, the most recent generation dates back to 2008.[5] Such a long run usually means parts are readily available and affordable, making repairs cheaper, which typically drives down rates.
Solid safety ratings: The NHTSA[6] and IIHS[7] report better-than-average safety ratings for the Dodge Grand Caravan, which makes the model less expensive to insure.
Reasonable price: Insurers consider a car’s value when determining rates for a specific vehicle model. The Grand Caravan was affordably priced brand new, and its purchase price has gone down ever since, making it a cheap vehicle to insure.
Vehicle type: Minivans like the Dodge Grand Caravan typically cost around 25% less to insure than a typical car, according to our data.
How to Get Cheaper Car Insurance for Your Dodge Grand Caravan
Here are a few tips to help you get cheaper Dodge Grand Caravan car insurance:
Buy only the coverage you need. If you can afford to pay out of pocket to repair or replace your Grand Caravan, you may need only liability coverage instead of full coverage.
Drive safely. Avoiding tickets and accidents is the best way to ensure you get a good rate on auto insurance.
Consider telematics. Allowing your insurer to track your driving habits could help you save big on insurance premiums.
Bundle policies for savings. If you bundle your renters or home insurance with your Grand Caravan car insurance policy, you can get a multi-policy discount and save up to 25%.
Shop insurance rates often. Insurance rates vary by company and change frequently. Comparing car insurance quotes from multiple companies whenever your policy renews can ensure you always get the cheapest rate for your coverage needs. An auto insurance comparison site can help you compare rates faster and more easily.
