| Jersey City | $150 – $252 | +14% |

Why CX-5 insurance costs what it costs
The low-deductible tier on a 2024 Mazda CX-5 in New Jersey is full coverage with the comprehensive and collision deductible cut from $500 to $250. Nothing about New Jersey's 25/50/25 plus $15,000 PIP floor changes — you are buying a smaller out-of-pocket on a first-party claim.
The CX-5 is a SUV in the mainstream MSRP tier, with near-segment-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.
This tier is the same stack as standard full coverage, with the first-dollar share shifted toward the carrier. The model prices that shift at 18% ($132 – $221 → $156 – $260), which is a filed-shape assumption, not a quote.
Newark is modeled 18% above the NJ average ($156 – $261/mo full coverage on this CX-5); Toms River is modeled 5% below at $125 – $210. Those city factors scale the same band as the hero — they are not a second rate file.

Is full coverage + low deductible the right tier for you?
- You would rather pay $156 – $260 than keep $500 liquid for a claim
- Repair bills on this vehicle tend to clear a $500 deductible in one visit
- You are already buying full coverage and want the first-dollar piece smaller
- You already keep $500 available and file claims rarely — the 18% modeled bump may not earn back
- You would rather put the $156 – $260 vs $132 – $221 difference into higher liability limits
- The CX-5 is near the end of its useful life and you are about to drop collision anyway
$500 vs $250 deductible on a CX-5
On a CX-5 this model prices a $250 deductible at $24–$39/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 |

Add-ons that are not automatic on full + low deductible coverage
These are typical market add-ons, not New Jersey mandates and not priced in our rate model. Confirm each line on a quote.
- Rental reimbursement
If this CX-5 is your only car, a shop visit without a rental add-on is an out-of-pocket week.
Not automatic on full coverage. Typical market price cited elsewhere on this site is $5–15/mo — confirm on the quote, do not treat that as a filed NJ rate.
- Loan/lease payoff (gap)
New or financed Mazda CX-5: actual cash value after a total loss can sit below the loan.
State law does not require gap. Lenders sometimes sell it at the dealership; price it against the same add-on on the auto policy.
- 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.
Carriers that commonly quote New Jersey

How to lower your CX-5 rate
- Raise your deductible to $1,000. On a CX-5 premium this is the single biggest lever you control directly.Saves ~$14–$26/mo
- Shop at least three carriers. Rates for the identical CX-5 profile differ by 2x or more between carriers in New Jersey.Saves up to $1,000+/yr
- Right-size your PIP. New Jersey is a no-fault state — if your health insurance already covers auto injuries, coordinating or trimming PIP limits cuts a mandatory coverage you may be double-paying.Saves 5–15%
- 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 New Jersey 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.
Mazda CX-5 insurance in New Jersey: FAQ
01How much more is the $250 deductible on a CX-5 in New Jersey?
This model prices it 18% above the $500-deductible full-coverage band: $132 – $221 → $156 – $260. That 18% is a file assumption (see methodology), not a carrier filing we scraped.
02What does New Jersey actually require to drive a CX-5?
New Jersey lists 25/50/25 plus $15,000 PIP as the liability floor. Full coverage is a market/lender product on top of that, modeled here at $132 – $221 for a 2024 Mazda CX-5.
03Does CX-5 insurance cost more in Newark than in Toms River?
In this model, yes — Newark is 18% vs the NJ average ($156 – $261/mo full coverage) and Toms River is -5% ($125 – $210). Same 2024 Mazda CX-5, same driver profile; only the city factor changes.
04Does a 5-star NHTSA rating lower CX-5 insurance in New Jersey?
This model applies a small credit for a 5-star overall NHTSA rating (the CX-5 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.
05When does dropping collision on an older CX-5 in New Jersey make sense?
When the car’s actual cash value is no longer worth a modeled $1,584–$2,652 a year in full coverage. A common rule of thumb is to drop first-party coverages when 10× the annual premium exceeds the car’s value — keep the liability portion either way. New Jersey still wants 25/50/25 plus $15,000 PIP on the road.
