My home insurance costs about $375/year, and my home is much more valuable than my car. The reason it's comparatively cheap is because I'm much less likely to have an accident with my home than my car.

As a general rule, as risk goes down, the cost to insure against that risk also goes down. We will soon see discounts for automatic braking systems and lane keep assistance. Competition will drive the discounts.
