Mercedes-Benz Insurance: Costs, Coverage and Savings

Over the past year, Jerry has helped 21,508 Mercedes-Benz drivers find smarter coverage and real savings. By analyzing actual Mercedes policies, we know what owners are paying and what to expect at every level of protection.

Competitive annual prices for Mercedes-Benz drivers are currently around:

  • $1,106 for basic coverage.

  • $3,466 for standard coverage.

  • $3,767 for premium coverage.

But that’s just a benchmark. Your own rate depends on the model you drive, where you live, your age and your driving record.

On average, Mercedes-Benz drivers pay between $3,083 and $6,932 annually for full coverage, with an average premium around $5,898. That’s well above the national average of $4,054, largely due to higher repair costs, advanced technology and luxury materials.

Already insured? Jerry pulls live quotes from top insurers so you can easily compare and see if you’re getting the best price and coverage. If we find a better deal, you can switch right away, even before renewal time. Jerry does the legwork to cancel your old policy and help get any refund you’re owed.

Based on Jerry customers with clean driving records who found savings in the past 12 months. Savings vary by state, coverage, driver profile and other factors.

Key takeaway: Even two Mercedes drivers in the same area can see big price differences. Jerry compares top insurers in real time to help you find fair pricing for premium protection.

What’s the best insurance for a Mercedes-Benz

Owning a Mercedes is about precision, comfort and performance. Protecting that investment takes coverage designed for luxury vehicles, not just state minimums.

If your Mercedes 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 Mercedes-Benz drivers carry at least 250/500/250 liability with collision and comprehensive coverage. While higher than most state minimums, it’s the level of protection luxury owners expect and often need.

No matter your lender, budget or insurer, there are plenty of coverage options that can help safeguard your Mercedes-Benz. Here are some of the most common, what they cover and why Mercedes drivers choose them.

Higher liability limits

Mercedes vehicles are powerful and high-value, so at-fault accidents can be costly. Over half (53%) of Jerry Mercedes drivers choose higher-than-minimum coverage.

Full coverage

Comprehensive and collision protect your car from theft, weather and damage you cause. The vast majority (65%) of Mercedes drivers opt for full coverage to safeguard performance and design.

OEM parts coverage

Keeps your Mercedes running like new after a crash with genuine OEM parts and certified technicians. Typically available for vehicles between three and ten years old.

New car replacement

Replaces your Mercedes with a new model if it’s totaled early in ownership, and is especially useful for recent models with high replacement values.

Roadside assistance

Covers towing, jump-starts and lockouts. Mercedes includes complimentary roadside assistance for up to four years, but many drivers extend coverage.

Rental reimbursement

Covers a rental car while your Mercedes is being repaired. Most insurers offer 30 to 45 days of coverage depending on your plan and location.

Gap insurance

Covers what’s left on your loan or lease if your Mercedes is totaled. About 39% of all drivers add gap coverage when financing.

4 smart ways Mercedes-Benz drivers can lower insurance costs

Finding the right insurance means balancing cost and confidence. For Mercedes owners, that balance depends on your model, coverage limits and how insurers price luxury performance vehicles.

Jerry’s experts help Mercedes-Benz drivers lower premiums without compromising on coverage. Here are our top tips.

How to saveTypical savings

Tip 1: Compare quotes before buying or renewing

Not every insurer prices Mercedes coverage accurately. Some overcharge for repairs, while others reward the brand’s strong safety record. Comparing quotes before renewal helps you find a fair rate for premium protection.

Here’s where Mercedes-Benz drivers who saved most often switched last year after comparing rates with Jerry:

National General14%26%
Bristol West11%25%
Assurance America9%28%
Alpine Rio6%20%

Based on Jerry customers with clean driving records who found savings in the past 12 months. Savings vary by state, coverage, driver profile and other factors.

Why it matters: Mercedes drivers can save up to 28% by comparing quotes. Jerry shows real prices in real time so you can find your best rate before you buy.

Tip 2: Stack discounts for more savings

Luxury drivers often qualify for multiple discounts, like multi-policy bundles, low-mileage savings or safe driver programs. But insurers don’t always apply them automatically.

Jerry checks every option to make sure you get the full savings.

Key takeaway:  Discounts can add up to more savings than raising deductibles alone.

Tip 3: Match your coverage to your Mercedes

From the C-Class to the EQS, every Mercedes has unique insurance needs. Many drivers buy more than the minimum required, maintaining full coverage and higher limits on new or leased vehicles, then adjusting deductibles as the car ages.

Minimum

$77$176/mo

Offers the legal minimum limits, which vary by state.

Full

$210$476/mo

Includes minimum liability plus collision and comprehensive coverage.

Standard

$256$570/mo

Increases liability limits, adds things like UM/UIM, medical, towing & more.

Preferred

$282$620/mo

Raises liability further, lowers deductibles and expands extra coverages.

Why it matters: Most Mercedes drivers carry full coverage and higher limits to protect their investment. Jerry experts recommend 250/500/250 for strong, luxury-level protection without overspending.

Tip 4: Try telematics to personalize your rate

Telematics programs use a mobile app or plug-in device to track driving habits like braking, speed and mileage. They then adjust your rate based on how you drive. For Mercedes owners, these programs can cut premiums by up to 6%, especially for smooth, controlled drivers.
