smart is #7: Top 20 Least Expensive to Insure

The plastic interchangeable body panels win again! Take that Fiat 500/iQ/Ka...

Insure.com - The most and least expensive 2009 vehicles to insure

"You'd think the Fortwo would be easily totaled in any crash, resulting in high insurance losses. But Hazelbaker notes that the Fortwo "has very low collision losses. They’ve done something no one else is doing: They are shipping body panels for repair pre-painted. So Joe’s Body Shop just has to bolt them on." Mercedes has packed it with safety equipment like side airbags and stability and traction control. In addition, an older demographic is attracted to the Fortwo, and experienced drivers incur lower insurance losses, which holds down premiums tied to the vehicle."
