Honda takes over the top two spots with the family-friendly Odyssey LX minivan jumping four spots from last year to claim number one. The popular CR-V LX climbed one spot to number two.
It’s the Odyssey’s first time in the top spot, though it has been runner up twice, once in 2010 and again 2014. And it has always made Insure.com’s top 10 cheapest vehicles to insure. This isn’t the first minivan to make it to the top. The first was the Chrysler Town & Country LX in 2011 and next the Toyota Sienna LE in 2012.
“It’s no surprise that a family vehicle such as a minivan has taken over the top spot,” says Penny Gusner, consumer analyst for Insure.com. “The Odyssey has a five-star crash rating from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and is relatively inexpensive to repair, and the driver carting around children tends to be more cautious than the person driving a muscle car.”
