Car insurance premium and coverage adjustments
Overview
Recent analyses and advice suggest that drivers can reduce car insurance premiums by adjusting contracted annual mileage to reflect actual usage. For example, reducing estimated distance from 10,000 to 5,000 kilometers can result in an average saving of 12 percent. Some major insurers may offer retroactive refunds for overpaid premiums if actual mileage is lower than stated.
As driving habits change—such as through a shift to public transport or the loss of a daily commute—vehicle owners are advised to review policies during renewal. While lower mileage may make usage-based options like ‘Pay As You Drive’ relevant, experts caution against reducing essential coverage, as vehicles remain at risk from theft, fire, weather, and accidents even when used less frequently.
