Every car sold in the UK is assigned to one of 50 insurance groups by Thatcham Research and the ABI. Group 1 typically represents the lowest insurance cost, and group 50 the highest. Insurers generally use these groups as one factor when calculating your premium, alongside your age, location, driving history, and other personal details. For example, the Toyota Yaris hybrid typically sits around Group 14, while the RAV4 hybrid moves up to Groups 27 to 30.
Insurance groups set by Thatcham Research and the ABI.
Toyota models typically range from Group 1 (Aygo) to Group 48 (Land Cruiser), so insurance costs can vary significantly depending on which Toyota you drive. A city runabout may sit at the bottom of the scale while a large SUV could sit near the top.
Insurance groups are only one of several factors. Insurers may also weigh up your age, where you live, your annual mileage, your driving history, and any modifications to the car. Two drivers insuring the same Toyota Yaris could receive very different quotes based on their personal circumstances.
Whether you choose fully comprehensive, third party fire and theft, or third party only cover can also affect your premium. Comprehensive cover is often competitively priced compared to third party only.
The most reliable way to find your price is to compare quotes from multiple insurers.
Based on typical Thatcham insurance group ratings, these four Toyota models sit in the lowest group bands and may be worth shortlisting if keeping the premium down is a priority.
1. Aygo (Groups 1-9)
Typically one of the most affordable Toyotas to insure. A city car with a 1.0-litre engine, so it tends to sit at the bottom of the Toyota range for insurance.
2. Yaris Cross (Groups 13-14)
A compact crossover with a hybrid powertrain. Sits in a narrow group band across most trims, making the running cost easier to predict.
3. Yaris (Group 14)
The self-charging hybrid supermini sits at Group 14. A popular first family car with strong fuel economy and modest insurance costs.
4. C-HR (Groups 14-16)
A compact crossover with a hybrid option. Groups sit close to the Yaris range and could suit drivers wanting more presence without moving into higher-group SUVs.

Get QuotesToyota has several models that may be practical first cars for new drivers. The Aygo (Groups 1-9) and Yaris (Group 14) both sit in lower insurance groups and are widely available on the used market.
A telematics policy could help new drivers demonstrate safe driving habits, which may lead to lower premiums over time. Black box devices or app-based policies typically monitor braking, cornering, and time of day, and reward safe driving with a lower renewal price.

Seven practical steps that could help reduce your Toyota insurance premium.
Compare quotes from multiple insurers
Prices for the same car and driver can vary significantly between providers. Comparing quotes is typically the most effective way to find a competitive deal.
Choose your model carefully
An Aygo (Groups 1-9) could cost noticeably less to insure than a RAV4 (Groups 27-30). Selecting a lower-group model may make a bigger difference than any other single choice.
Consider a telematics policy
A black box or app-based policy could reward safe driving with lower premiums, particularly for younger drivers.
Compare hybrid trim levels
Toyota's hybrid lineup (Yaris, Corolla, C-HR, RAV4) typically sits in moderate groups. Choosing a self-charging hybrid over a plug-in version could affect your group in some cases, so it is worth quoting both.
Increase your voluntary excess
A higher excess typically means a lower premium, but make sure you could afford to pay it if you needed to make a claim.
Think about where you park
Parking off-road, in a garage, or on a driveway could reduce your premium compared to parking on the street.
Pay annually if you can
Monthly instalments could add interest to the overall cost, so paying upfront may save you money over the year.
