Penny Gusner, a Consumer Analyst for the website, is our guest on this episode of The Weekly Driver Podcast.

Gusner talks with co-hosts Bruce Aldrich and James Raia about the cheapest cars to insure in every state and how the results were determined. She details how cars are built and how other factors fit into the equation. Road quality, technology, weather, etc., all contribute to a vehicle’s insurance rate.

“Most new vehicles are loaded with technology and that can lead to a safety discount, but all of that technology also comes with increased repair costs,” said Gusner. “In luxury vehicles, due materials used, a teak wood interior is much more expensive to repair than a plastic one.”
