What’s the best car insurance for a FIAT?
FIATs are built for efficiency and personality, not excess. Your insurance should reflect that, but protecting your car doesn’t mean overpaying for coverage you don’t need.
If your FIAT is leased or financed, your lender will require full coverage. You may also need gap insurance, which helps pay off your loan if your car is totaled.
Jerry recommends that FIAT drivers carry at least 100/300/100 liability with collision and comprehensive coverage. It’s higher than most state minimums, but it’s smart protection for vehicles that balance agility with practicality.
Here are the most common coverage options FIAT drivers choose and why they matter.
Higher liability limits
Compact size doesn’t eliminate risk, especially from at-fault accidents. Nearly half (41%) of Jerry FIAT drivers choose higher-than-minimum liability limits to protect against costly accidents.
Full coverage
Comprehensive and collision cover theft, weather and at-fault damage. Around 35% of FIAT drivers carry full coverage for extra peace of mind.
OEM parts coverage
Keeps your FIAT in peak condition after a crash, with manufacturer-approved parts and skilled technicians. Typically available for vehicles between three and ten years old.
New car replacement
Replaces your FIAT with a new one if it’s totaled early in ownership. Especially valuable for newer models like the 500e.
Roadside assistance
Covers towing, jump-starts and lockouts. FIAT offers five years of complimentary roadside assistance on new vehicles, but many drivers extend it for added security.
Rental reimbursement
Pays for a rental car while your FIAT is being repaired. Most insurers offer 30 to 45 days of coverage, depending on your plan and state.
Gap insurance
Covers the remaining balance on your lease or loan if your FIAT is totaled. About 39% of all drivers add gap coverage when financing a vehicle.
Accident forgiveness
Keeps your rate from rising after your first at-fault accident. Without it, FIAT drivers see premiums rise by nearly 46% on average.
