Finding cheaper insurance for your Kia Soul can be difficult, but you can learn the following methods to save time.
There are both good and bad ways to shop for insurance coverage and we’ll show you the absolute fastest way to quote coverages on a Kia and find the best price possible either online or from local insurance agents.
If you have a policy now or need a new policy, you can learn to get lower rates while maximizing coverage. Pricing affordable coverage is not that difficult. Consumers just need to understand how to compare rates online.
The fastest way that we advise to compare insurance rates from multiple companies is to realize most of the bigger providers participate in online systems to provide you with free rate quotes. To start a quote, the only thing you need to do is provide information like whether you have decent credit, if your license is active, whether you drive to work or school, and your job. That rating information gets sent immediately to many of the top insurers and they return cost estimate quickly.

Car insurance companies don’t necessarily list every discount in a way that’s easy to find, so the below list has some of the best known as well as the least known discounts you could be receiving when you buy insurance online.
It’s important to note that most credits do not apply to your bottom line cost. Some only reduce the price of certain insurance coverages like medical payments or collision. So even though they make it sound like you can get free auto insurance, you won’t be that lucky. Any qualifying discounts will reduce your insurance coverage premiums.
Larger insurance coverage companies and the discounts they provide are detailed below.

Part of the auto insurance buying process is learning some of the factors that go into determining the level of your policy premiums. When consumers understand what impacts premium levels, this allows you to make educated decisions that could result in cheaper rates.
The list below includes some of the most rate-impacting factors used by companies to determine your rate level.
When choosing coverage, there really is not a perfect coverage plan. Your needs are not the same as everyone else’s.
For instance, these questions might help in determining whether your personal situation will benefit from professional help.
If you’re not sure about those questions, you might consider talking to a licensed insurance agent. If you don’t have a local agent, simply complete this short form. It’s fast, doesn’t cost anything and may give you better protection.
Understanding the coverages of insurance helps when choosing appropriate coverage for your vehicles. The terms used in a policy can be ambiguous and even agents have difficulty translating policy wording.
Collision coverage covers damage to your Soul resulting from a collision with another vehicle or an object, but not an animal. You have to pay a deductible and then insurance will cover the remainder.
Collision insurance covers claims such as colliding with a tree, hitting a parking meter, crashing into a building and sideswiping another vehicle. This coverage can be expensive, so analyze the benefit of dropping coverage from vehicles that are 8 years or older. Drivers also have the option to choose a higher deductible in order to get cheaper collision rates.
Personal Injury Protection (PIP) and medical payments coverage reimburse you for expenses for EMT expenses, nursing services and hospital visits. The coverages can be used in conjunction with a health insurance policy or if there is no health insurance coverage. They cover all vehicle occupants as well as if you are hit as a while walking down the street. PIP is only offered in select states and gives slightly broader coverage than med pay
Comprehensive insurance pays for damage that is not covered by collision coverage. You first have to pay a deductible then your comprehensive coverage will pay.
Comprehensive insurance covers things such as a broken windshield, damage from flooding, damage from getting keyed, rock chips in glass and falling objects. The most your insurance company will pay is the ACV or actual cash value, so if the vehicle’s value is low it’s probably time to drop comprehensive insurance.
This coverage provides protection when the “other guys” do not carry enough liability coverage. This coverage pays for injuries to you and your family and damage to your 2014 Kia Soul.
Since a lot of drivers carry very low liability coverage limits, it doesn’t take a major accident to exceed their coverage limits. For this reason, having high UM/UIM coverages is very important. Most of the time the UM/UIM limits are identical to your policy’s liability coverage.
Liability insurance will cover damages or injuries you inflict on other’s property or people in an accident. This insurance protects YOU from legal claims by others. It does not cover your injuries or vehicle damage.
It consists of three limits, bodily injury for each person injured, bodily injury for the entire accident and a property damage limit. You commonly see values of 100/300/100 that means you have $100,000 in coverage for each person’s injuries, a per accident bodily injury limit of $300,000, and $100,000 of coverage for damaged propery. Alternatively, you may have a combined single limit or CSL which combines the three limits into one amount and claims can be made without the split limit restrictions.
Liability coverage protects against claims such as repair bills for other people’s vehicles, legal defense fees, bail bonds and funeral expenses. How much coverage you buy is a personal decision, but it’s cheap coverage so purchase as high a limit as you can afford.
We covered some good ideas how to save on 2014 Kia Soul insurance. The key concept to understand is the more rate quotes you have, the better likelihood of getting low cost insurance. Consumers may even find the best premium rates are with an unexpected company.
Drivers who switch companies do it for any number of reasons including unfair underwriting practices, high rates after DUI convictions, questionable increases in premium and poor customer service. It doesn’t matter why you want to switch choosing a new company is not as hard as you think.
When shopping online for auto insurance, it’s not a good idea to buy poor coverage just to save money. Too many times, an insured dropped liability limits or collision coverage only to regret that a couple dollars of savings turned into a financial nightmare. Your objective should be to find the BEST coverage at an affordable rate, not the least amount of coverage.
