Finding the cheapest insurance for a Ford Fusion hinges on many factors such as how old the vehicle is, if you have recent claims, and driving violations and tickets. Colorado drivers pay on average $1,324 annually to insure their Fusion, but that figure is calculated based on a 30-year-old married male driver with both comprehensive and collision coverage and $100 deductibles.
When estimating a car insurance rate like we just did, the issue is that you may not be 30 years old (or even male), maybe you are single instead of married, or maybe you want more liability coverage than is required by law in Colorado. Auto insurance is unique to each driver, so the way we recommend to find the most affordable coverage for your Ford is to do your own rate comparisons. Rate quotes are easy and you will receive price comparisons from some of the best insurers in Colorado.
The trim level of your Ford has an effect on the coverage cost, so the price to insure a Fusion S 4-Dr Sedan will cost $272 less than the insurance cost for the high end Fusion Sport AWD 4-Dr Sedan model, as shown below.

Full coverage versus liability-only
Finding cheaper insurance is probably important to the majority of vehicle owners, and one way to lower the cost of insurance for a Ford Fusion is to only pay for liability coverage. The example below illustrates the comparison of auto insurance rates with and without physical damage coverage. The price estimates are based on no claims or driving citations, $500 deductibles, drivers are not married, and no policy discounts are applied.
On average, physical damage insurance costs an extra $2,273 per year more than just buying liability insurance. A very common question is if you should buy full coverage at all. There is no definitive formula for excluding full coverage on your policy, but there is a general school of thought. If the annual cost of your full coverage insurance is 10% or more of replacement cost minus your deductible, then it could be time to drop full coverage.
There are some circumstances where removing full coverage is not in your best interest. If you still owe a portion of the original loan, you are required to maintain full coverage as part of the loan requirements. Also, if you cannot afford to purchase a different vehicle if your current one is damaged, you should not eliminate full coverage.
The diagram below demonstrates how choosing different deductibles can influence premium costs when trying to find cheap insurance for a Ford Fusion. The data is based on a married male driver, full coverage, and no discounts are applied.
The data above shows that a 30-year-old driver could cut expenses by $378 a year by changing from a $100 deductible to a $500 deductible, or save $570 by using a $1,000 deductible. Even younger drivers, like the 20-year-old, could roll back prices up to $1,138 every year just by choosing larger deductibles. If you do decide to increase your deductibles, it is essential to have plenty of savings on hand to cover the extra out-of-pocket expense, which is the main drawback of higher deductibles.
