Car insurance is a mandatory insurance for every vehicle owner in Germany, which costs a lot of money. The cost of car insurance depends on various factors, such as the type of vehicle, vehicle use, place of residence, the age of the driver and the no-claims bonus category.
Due to these factors, it can happen that a newcomer to the road or a change of residence is classified in a higher no-claims class and therefore has to pay a higher insurance premium. Vehicle use also plays a role; if the car is used frequently, the risk of damage increases and so do the costs.
