9 Best Car Insurance in Oregon of 2026

By the Rankozo research desk · Updated November 11, 2026 · Next review December 26, 2026

PEMCO is the best car insurance company in Oregon for most drivers in 2026 because it sells car insurance only in Oregon and Washington and offers up to 20% off for safe driving through PEMCODOMETER. Allstate suits drivers who want a low published price: Oregon customers who bought online paid $81 a month on average for liability only, as of November 2026. Low-mileage drivers should quote Lemonade Car, estimated at $1,022 to $1,062 a year in Oregon, and AARP members over 50 should quote The Hartford, from $97 a month.

How this ranking works

One method for every tool. We compared documented features and published prices; we did not run hands-on tests. Value carries the most weight.

This list is for Oregon drivers comparing insurers on local rates, claims service and coverage options. We compared documented features, discounts, claims access and published prices on each insurer's own pages in November 2026. Rankozo weights value at 40%, features at 35% and ease of use at 25%. Oregon is an at-fault state, and every policy must include liability of $25,000 per person, $50,000 per accident and $20,000 for property damage, plus $15,000 of personal injury protection and uninsured motorist coverage of $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident. Allstate, Progressive, The Hartford, Lemonade and Liberty Mutual publish Oregon price figures on their own pages, and we quote them; the others need a quote. PEMCO's site blocked our automated checks, so its facts come from an archived copy of its own auto page. GEICO, USAA, Nationwide, American Family and Farmers pages did not load for us and are left out.

The verdict

PEMCO is the first quote to get in Oregon: it writes policies only for Oregon and Washington, works through local agents and offers up to 20% off for safe driving. Allstate is the best second quote because it publishes an $81 monthly Oregon average for liability-only online buyers. Teachers and first responders should add COUNTRY Financial, comparison shoppers should check Progressive's $125.11 Oregon average, AARP members should quote The Hartford, and low-mileage drivers should try Lemonade's per-mile pricing. State Farm is the agent pick for families with teen drivers, and Liberty Mutual and Travelers round out the list.

    Best forOregon drivers who want a Northwest insurer with local agents

    PEMCO is the regional pick on this list. The Seattle mutual sells customized car insurance only to Oregon and Washington residents and says it has served the Pacific Northwest for more than 75 years. Its auto page spells out the Oregon rules directly: personal injury protection and uninsured or underinsured motorist coverage are required here and PEMCO offers both. The PEMCODOMETER My Driving Discount runs in the Go PEMCO app, watches speed and phone use for 91 days and can cut the premium by up to 20%; every driver on the policy can join and earns a discount while being monitored. Discounts for educators, good students and defensive drivers stack with a multi-policy bundle. Licensed agents handle quotes and claims, and PEMCO says it has won more customer service awards than any other Northwest insurer. The weak spot is transparency: PEMCO publishes no Oregon price, and its live site blocked our checker, so confirm each discount on a real quote.

    • ✓Writes car insurance only for Oregon and Washington, so its agents work this market every day
    • ✓Says it has won more customer service awards than any other insurance company in the Northwest
    • ✓Covers occasional rental cars in the U.S. and Canada under your own policy
    • ✕No published rates, so you need a quote by phone, online or through an agent
    • ✕Rental company fee coverage is limited to Washington policyholders, not Oregon
    • ✕Its site blocked our automated checks, so we read an August 2026 archived copy of its auto page

    Oregon customers who bought online paid $81 a month on average for liability only, one driver and one vehicle

    Best forbudget drivers who buy online

    Allstate publishes the lowest Oregon price we found on an insurer's own page: customers in Oregon who bought online paid $81 a month on average for a liability-only policy covering one driver and one car. That number is a useful floor, but a liability-only policy leaves your own car uncovered, so quote collision and comprehensive too if the car is financed or worth much. Discounts are where Allstate is strongest. Drivewise can cut up to 30% based on driving data, a home and auto bundle saves 20% on average, and a second car on the policy saves 25%. Oregon drivers can also add rideshare coverage, EV coverage, rental reimbursement and roadside assistance. Allstate sells online and through agents, and its app holds the electronic ID card that Oregon accepts at traffic stops. The trade-off is that its best prices depend on stacking discounts and sharing driving data.

    • ✓Lowest published Oregon average on this list at $81 a month for liability only
    • ✓Oregon discounts include anti-theft device, defensive driver, good student and student away at school
    • ✓Switchers saved $900 on average, according to Allstate
    • ✕The $81 figure covers liability only, not collision or comprehensive
    • ✕Average applies to online buyers with one driver and one car
    • ✕Drivewise savings depend on sharing driving data
    Oregon average:
    $81 a month, liability only, online buyers
    Telematics:
    Drivewise, up to 30%
    Multi-car saving:
    25%
    Bundle saving:
    20% on average

    Bottom line: Allstate is the best choice for Oregon drivers who want a low published price because online buyers paid $81 a month on average for liability only. Families with two or more cars gain most from its 25% multi-car saving.

    Best forteachers, first responders and new drivers

    COUNTRY Financial is a less familiar name in Oregon, but it lists the state among the 19 where it sells car insurance and backs its policies with local representatives. Its discount list is unusually specific. Teachers and first responders can get the Occupation Discount of up to 15%, the DriverIQ program can save up to 25% for safe driving, and a home and auto bundle can save up to 30%. Newly licensed drivers who finish the Simply Drive course may qualify for a discount, which helps families adding a teen. Optional coverages include roadside assistance, MedPay and personal injury protection, which Oregon requires. COUNTRY says AM Best has rated it A or higher since 1933 and A+ or higher since 1976, and that 8 in 10 clients would recommend it. It publishes no price, and it notes that discounts vary by state, so confirm which apply in Oregon on a quote.

    • ✓Rated A or higher by AM Best since 1933 and A+ or higher since 1976
    • ✓8 out of 10 clients recommend COUNTRY Financial, based on its 2026 client survey
    • ✓Local reps help with quotes, coverage reviews and claims
    • ✕No published Oregon price

    Best fordrivers who compare prices online

    Progressive is the easiest insurer here to price before you talk to anyone. Its Oregon page says liability-only policies averaged $125.11 a month in 2025 and explains that Oregon requires more coverages than many states, which pushes premiums up. That is higher than Allstate's published average for online buyers, so Progressive is rarely the cheapest starting point, but its tools make comparison simple. AutoQuote Explorer lays out coverage options side by side, the Name Your Price tool works backward from a budget, and Snapshot rates you on real driving. Oregon discounts include multi-policy, multi-car and a discount for starting the quote online, and paying in full or using automatic payments lowers the price further. The multi-car discount can include a car at your address owned by a spouse, relative or roommate. Progressive says national switchers saved over $950 on average, but that figure is not specific to Oregon.

    • ✓Publishes an Oregon average rate, $125.11 a month for liability only in 2025
    • ✓Multi-car discount covers a car at your address owned by a spouse, family member or roommate
    • ✓National switchers saved over $950 on average, according to Progressive
    • ✕Its Oregon liability average is higher than Allstate's published figure
    • ✕Average excludes collision and comprehensive
    • ✕Savings claim is a national figure, not Oregon-specific
    Oregon average:

    Online, phone or independent agent
    Phone:
    1-855-347-3939
    Oregon discounts listed:
    Multi-policy, multi-car, online quote

    Bottom line: Progressive is the best choice for Oregon drivers who want to compare coverage online because it publishes a $125.11 monthly Oregon average and offers AutoQuote Explorer. Use it as a benchmark against PEMCO and Allstate.

    Best forAARP members over 50

    The AARP Auto Insurance Program from The Hartford is the pick for Oregon drivers over 50. The Hartford has insured AARP members in Oregon since 1984 and publishes a state price: customers here paid an average of $1,166 a year, or about $97 a month. Benefits for members include accident forgiveness, a disappearing deductible, new car replacement and 24/7 claim service, and optional coverages include roadside assistance and rental car reimbursement. Bundling auto and home can save up to 12% on the car policy and up to 20% on the home policy, and The Hartford says bundlers saved $963 on average. The program is aimed at AARP members, so younger households should compare PEMCO, Allstate or Progressive instead. Buying is direct by phone or online rather than through a local office.

    • ✓Publishes an Oregon price: as little as $97 a month, average $1,166 a year
    • ✓Has insured AARP members in Oregon since 1984
    • ✓Bundling customers saved $963 on average, according to The Hartford
    • ✕Built for AARP members, so younger drivers have better options
    • ✕No local agent network like State Farm or COUNTRY
    • ✕The $97 figure is an Oregon average, so your price can be higher
    Oregon average:

    In Oregon since:
    1984
    Bundle saving:
    Up to 12% on auto
    Claims:

    Bottom line: AARP Auto Insurance from The Hartford is the best choice for Oregon drivers over 50 because it publishes a $97 monthly Oregon price and includes accident forgiveness and new car replacement. Younger drivers should look elsewhere.

    Best forlow-mileage drivers

    Lemonade Car suits Oregon drivers who leave the car parked most days. Each month you pay a fixed base price plus your miles driven times a per-mile rate, and Lemonade estimates the average Oregon policy at roughly $1,022 to $1,062 a year. Safe driving data, including speed, braking and turns, can lower the price further, and Lemonade lists a three-year safe driving discount and a five-year accident-free discount. Because Lemonade sells renters, homeowners, pet and life insurance in Oregon, bundling is easy for households that already use it. Coverage options include collision, comprehensive, PIP, uninsured driver bodily injury and property damage, and temporary transportation for up to 30 days while your car is in the shop. Everything, including claims, runs through the app. Daily commuters will likely pay less with a flat-rate insurer, since every mile adds to the bill.

    • ✓Estimated Oregon average of $1,022 to $1,062 a year
    • ✓Three-year safe driving and five-year accident-free discounts
    • ✓Sells renters, homeowners, pet and life insurance in Oregon for bundling
    • ✕Monthly bill rises with every mile, so long commutes cost more
    • ✕App-first service, with no local agents
    • ✕Price estimate is an average, not a guaranteed starting rate
    Oregon estimate:
    $1,022 to $1,062 a year
    Pricing model:
    Base price plus per-mile rate
    Temporary transportation:
    Up to 30 days
    Oregon bundles:
    Renters, home, pet, life

    Bottom line: Lemonade Car is the best choice for low-mileage Oregon drivers because it bills a base price plus a per-mile rate, with an estimated Oregon average of about $1,022 to $1,062 a year. Long-distance commuters should compare flat-rate insurers.

    State Farm is the agent-first option for Oregon families. It has insured cars since 1922, lists over 19,000 auto insurance agents nationwide, and says it serves more than 96 million policies and accounts. Two programs matter most here. Drive Safe & Save can cut up to 30% for safe driving, and Steer Clear saves as much as 20% for drivers under 25 who have had no at-fault accidents or moving violations in three years, which makes State Farm a strong quote for households adding a teen. Bundling auto with renters insurance can save up to $900, and State Farm says switchers save $740 on average. Coverage options include liability, comprehensive, collision and uninsured or underinsured motorist. Claims can be filed online, in the app or by phone. State Farm does not publish an Oregon price, so you will need a quote from an agent or online to compare.

    • ✓Over 19,000 auto insurance agents nationwide
    • ✓Switchers saved $740 on average, according to State Farm
    • ✓Insuring cars since 1922

    Best fordrivers who want full coverage online

    Liberty Mutual is useful for Oregon drivers who need full coverage, because its Oregon page gives a concrete benchmark: the average cost of full coverage in the state is about $157 a month, or $1,884 a year, as of November 2026. That is a state average rather than Liberty Mutual's own starting price, and it is the highest monthly figure on this list because it includes comprehensive and collision. Discounts include RightTrack, which can save up to 30% for safe driving, an online purchase discount and a bundle discount, and Liberty Mutual says switchers could save over $700. You can buy online or work with a local agent. Its Oregon page also lays out the minimums clearly: 25/50/20 liability, $15,000 PIP and 25/50 uninsured motorist. Without a published Oregon starting rate, Liberty Mutual ranks below insurers that show their own prices.

    • ✓Publishes an Oregon full coverage benchmark of about $157 a month
    • ✓Switchers could save over $700, according to Liberty Mutual
    • ✓Oregon page explains the 25/50/20 minimums plus PIP and UM limits

    Bottom line: Liberty Mutual is the best choice for Oregon drivers buying full coverage online because RightTrack can save up to 30% and its Oregon page sets a $157 monthly full coverage benchmark. Compare it with Allstate and Progressive.

    Best fordrivers who use an independent agent

    Travelers fits Oregon drivers who already work with an independent insurance agent. You can buy through an independent agent, by phone or online. Discounts are fewer and less specific than at Allstate or State Farm. The Safe Driver Discount applies if your household has had no accident, violation or major comprehensive claim in three to five years, the good student discount needs a B average or better, and a multi-policy discount covers bundles with home, condo, renters and boat insurance. Claims can be reported 24/7 and tracked in a MyTravelers account. Travelers publishes no Oregon price and has no Oregon-specific page that we could load, so it ranks last here on value and transparency, but an independent agent can quote it alongside PEMCO and Progressive in one visit.

    • ✓Sold through independent agents who can compare it with other insurers
    • ✓Claims can be tracked online in a MyTravelers account
    • ✓Bundles car with home, condo, renters and boat policies
    • ✕No published price on its car insurance page
    • ✕Fewer named discounts than Allstate or State Farm
    • ✕Little Oregon-specific information on its site

    Good student:

    Claims:

    Ways to buy:

    Bottom line: Travelers is the best choice for Oregon drivers who shop through an independent agent because the same agent can quote it next to other carriers. Households with a clean record for three to five years qualify for its Safe Driver Discount.

What to check before you pay

01

Know what Oregon requires

Every Oregon policy needs 25/50/20 liability, $15,000 of personal injury protection and uninsured motorist coverage of $25,000 per person and $50,000 per accident. That makes the state minimum more expensive than in liability-only states, which is why Progressive's Oregon liability average is $125.11 a month.

02

Add collision and comprehensive for a financed car

Oregon does not require collision or comprehensive, but a lender usually does if you lease or finance. Liberty Mutual puts the Oregon average for full coverage at about $157 a month, so budget well above the liability-only figures.

03

Compare averages on the same basis

Published Oregon figures measure different things: Allstate's $81 is liability only for online buyers, Progressive's $125.11 is liability only for 2025, The Hartford's $97 is its customers' average, and Liberty Mutual's $157 is full coverage. Quote every insurer at the same limits and deductibles before deciding.

04

Pick a driving discount that fits how you drive

Commuters gain most from PEMCODOMETER (up to 20%), DriverIQ (up to 25%), Drivewise, Drive Safe & Save or RightTrack (up to 30% each). Drivers who rarely use the car should price Lemonade's base rate plus per-mile charge.

05

Ask about job and age discounts

COUNTRY Financial gives teachers and first responders up to 15% off, PEMCO has an educator discount, State Farm's Steer Clear saves up to 20% for clean drivers under 25, and AARP members get The Hartford's program with accident forgiveness.
