I got two quotes online that were about the same, about $233. Then I talked to a real person from one of those, and it went up to $343.

After what happened to me with my recent adventures in insurance I really don't know what to think. I had always been with AAA and was paying around $150 per month when I added the Prius I haven't driven. It was around $185 before that because the multicar discount is more than liability on the parked Prius.

Then I asked around and everyone gave me the same price except Progresive which they said they could do it for $130 per month. Then after 6 months it rose to over $190 per month. I quickly switched back to AAA for $150 per month again.

As far as cars go, I found a 2018 Prius Prime with just over 100k miles and good CarFax report for just under $18,000, and it looks like there are more Primes like that one going for similar prices if one looks hard enough. That sounds like a better way to get back into the EV scene than the Tesla Model S.
