How much is Lexus RX insurance in Maine?
For the driver profile in our methodology, a 2024 Lexus RX costs between $35/mo at the state minimum and $231/mo for low-deductible full coverage. Most owners land in the full-coverage row — lenders and lessors require it.

| Full CoverageMost owners | Adds damage to your RX, theft, glass | $117 – $195 | $1,404 – $2,340 |
| Full Coverage + Low Deductible | Same, with less out of pocket per claim | $138 – $231 | $1,656 – $2,772 |

What Maine requires to drive a RX
Maine lists 50/100/25 plus 50/100 UM as the liability floor. That is what makes a RX legal to drive — not full coverage, not a $500 deductible, and not a particular carrier.
- Liability floor
- 50/100/25 plus 50/100 UM
- Fault system
- Maine is a tort (at-fault) state — the driver who causes a crash is who liability pays for.
- PIP
- PIP is not a required minimum in this state.
- Uninsured motorist in the minimum
- UM/UIM is listed with this state’s minimum package in our registry.
RX insurance cost by model year
Newer models cost more to insure — a 2024 RX runs about 17% more than a 2020 — because comp and collision track replacement value and parts cost. Liability barely moves with age.
| Model year | Full coverage / mo | Liability / mo | vs. 2024 |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2024 | $117 – $195 | $49 – $82 | — |
| 2023 | $111 – $185 | $49 – $81 | −5% |
| 2022 | $106 – $177 | $48 – $80 | −9% |
| 2021 | $102 – $170 | $47 – $79 | −13% |
| 2020 | $97 – $162 | $46 – $77 | −17% |
RX vs. comparable vehicles
How the RX stacks up against the vehicles shoppers most often cross-shop it with. Same coverage, same driver profile.
| Vehicle | Full coverage / mo | vs. RX | Why it differs |
|---|---|---|---|
| Lexus RX | $117 – $195 | — | Above-average claim severity |
| Tesla Model Y | $117 – $195 | — | Model Y's certified-shop repair network keeps its claims pricier. |
| BMW X5 | $117 – $195 | — | X5's German parts pricing lifts collision severity. |
| Audi Q5 | $117 – $195 | — | Q5 rates close; Audi repairs run modestly higher per claim. |
RX insurance cost by Maine city
Portland drivers pay about 8% above the state average while Augusta runs 5% below. City pricing follows claim frequency — dense-metro traffic and repair costs carry the surcharge.
| City | Full coverage / mo | vs. ME average |
|---|---|---|
| Portland | $126 – $211 | +8% |
| Lewiston | $122 – $203 | +4% |
| South Portland | $119 – $199 | +2% |
| Bangor | $115 – $191 | −2% |
| Augusta | $111 – $185 | −5% |
Why RX insurance costs what it costs
Minimum coverage on a 2024 Lexus RX in Maine is the 50/100/25 plus 50/100 UM package — bodily injury and property damage you cause, up to those caps. It does not pay to repair or replace this RX. Maine requires that package (or a listed alternative) to drive legally.
The RX is a SUV in the luxury / EV MSRP tier, with above-average claim severity in our model and a 5-star NHTSA overall rating in our registry. It is not on the NICB top-100 most-stolen list in our registry, so theft is not a modeled comprehensive surcharge here.
On this RX the modeled ladder in Maine runs $35 – $58 at minimum, $49 – $82 at higher liability, and $117 – $195 once comprehensive and collision attach — that last jump is the car showing up on the bill.
Portland is modeled 8% above the ME average ($126 – $211/mo full coverage on this RX); Augusta is modeled 5% below at $111 – $185. Those city factors scale the same band as the hero — they are not a second rate file. UM/UIM is listed with Maine's minimum package in our registry.

Is minimum coverage the right tier for you?
- Title is free and clear on a RX you can afford to replace without an insurer
- You accept that Maine's 50/100/25 plus 50/100 UM caps may be below a serious injury claim
- Mileage and parking exposure are low enough that you are choosing to self-insure the car
- Anyone still financing or leasing the RX — this tier is not what a lender typically accepts
- Anyone who cannot pay a RX repair bill without insurance
- Anyone whose assets exceed Maine's 50/100/25 plus 50/100 UM caps
$500 vs $250 deductible on a RX
On a RX this model prices a $250 deductible at $21–$36/mo above the $500 deductible. You save $250 per comprehensive or collision claim; you pay the extra premium every month whether you claim or not.
| Tier | Deductible | Monthly | Annual | In this file |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Standard full coverage | $500 | $117 – $195 | $1,404–$2,340 | Default first-party deductible in this model |
| Low-deductible full coverage | $250 | $138 – $231 | $1,656–$2,772 | Priced at 1.18× the $500 band in rates.ts |
Add-ons that are not automatic on minimum coverage
These are typical market add-ons, not Maine mandates and not priced in our rate model. Confirm each line on a quote.
- Roadside assistance
Useful on a SUV you drive far from a dealer network — towing, lockout, flat.
2024 vehicles may still have factory roadside; stacking two roadside products rarely helps.
- Medical payments (MedPay)
Maine does not require PIP, so MedPay is the usual small first-party medical add-on for occupants.
It is not a substitute for health insurance, and it is not required in this state.
Carriers that commonly quote Maine
These are carriers we have real logos for and that commonly quote Maine. We do not publish a per-carrier RX price — that would be a fabricated quote. The range on this page is the modeled band, not “from $X at GEICO.”

How to lower your RX rate
- Raise your deductible to $1,000. On a RX premium this is the single biggest lever you control directly.Saves ~$12–$23/mo
- Shop at least three carriers. Rates for the identical RX profile differ by 2x or more between carriers in Maine.Saves up to $1,000+/yr
- Clean up billing. Paid-in-full, paperless, and autopay credits stack — small individually, real together, and none are applied unless you ask.Saves 3–8%
- Ask about safety-tech discounts. Automatic emergency braking, lane keeping, and anti-theft equipment all carry filed credits with some carriers — none are applied unless you ask.Saves 3–8%
- Report your real mileage. Commuting under ~10,000 miles a year moves you down a rating band with most carriers, and pay-per-mile programs go further if you drive little.Saves 5–15%
- Bundle home or renters. Multi-policy is the largest standing discount most carriers file — typically 10–20% off the auto side.Saves 10–20%
About these numbers
Sources. Rate ranges are modeled from average premiums published by the Maine Department of Insurance and industry rate data, adjusted per vehicle using NICB theft rankings, NHTSA safety ratings, MSRP tier, and repair-severity data. They are estimates, not filed quotes.
Rating profile. Unless noted: a 35–55-year-old driver with a clean record, average credit where states allow it, 12,000 annual miles, and standard $500 comprehensive and collision deductibles. Your rate will differ — that is the point of quoting.
Ranges, not averages. We publish a band rather than a single average because the spread between carriers for the same driver routinely exceeds 2x — a lone number hides the gap that makes shopping worth your time.
What this model does not do. It does not publish age-band prices, ticket/DUI/credit surcharge tables, per-carrier quotes, J.D. Power ranks, NAIC complaint indexes, or IIHS/HLDI scores. Vehicle knobs are only the four in the rate model: MSRP tier, NICB theft rank, NHTSA stars, and repair-severity tier. The $250-deductible band is the $500 band × 1.18.
Lexus RX insurance in Maine: FAQ
01Does Maine's 50/100/25 plus 50/100 UM minimum pay to fix my RX?
No. That package is liability for other people. A damaged 2024 Lexus RX is only paid for if you buy collision (crash) or comprehensive (non-crash). Those lines start at the full-coverage tier, which models at $117 – $195/mo on this page.
02What does Maine actually require to drive a RX?
Maine lists 50/100/25 plus 50/100 UM as the liability floor. Full coverage is a market/lender product on top of that, modeled here at $117 – $195 for a 2024 Lexus RX.
03Does RX insurance cost more in Portland than in Augusta?
In this model, yes — Portland is 8% vs the ME average ($126 – $211/mo full coverage) and Augusta is -5% ($111 – $185). Same 2024 Lexus RX, same driver profile; only the city factor changes.
04Does a 5-star NHTSA rating lower RX insurance in Maine?
This model applies a small credit for a 5-star overall NHTSA rating (the RX is a 5). It is one of four vehicle modifiers next to MSRP tier, theft rank, and repair tier — not a standalone “safety discount” we can quote as a percent off your bill.
