Each insurance provider uses a different formula to determine the insurance rates for each driver. Different factors contribute to the final outcome and one of those factors is the make and model of the car that the insured will be driving. Statistics on the car's performance as well as claims previously filed contribute to the rate for future drivers.
Chevrolet Crash Test Results
Crash worthiness is determined by performing tests on how a given car protects passengers during front-impact, side-impact and rear-impact crashes. The Chevrolet Equinox, for example, performed well in front-impact collisions, as did the Chevrolet Cobalt, the Chevrolet Malibu and the Chevrolet Uplander. However, the Chevrolet Aveo and the Chevrolet Silverado 1500 both performed poorly in rear-impact crashes. Poor results makes for higher insurance rates.

Chevrolet Insurance Claims
The number of insurance claims for injuries, collisions and thefts are also a factor for car insurance rates. For injuries, drivers of most Chevrolet models filed far fewer than average insurance claims, including the Suburban 2500, Suburban 1500, Tahoe, Blazer and Corvette. However, owners of the Corvette, Malibu Classic, and Sebring Convertible all filed far more than the average number of claims for vehicular theft.
Chevrolet Auto Insurance
Chevrolet drivers with cars who rate poorly in crash tests can improve insurance rates by installing safety devices. Those driving a car with high theft rates can lower their car insurance rates by installing anti-theft devices.
