What is multi-car discount?
A multi-car discount is a price reduction an insurer may offer when more than one eligible vehicle is insured on the same policy or account.
Also called: multiple vehicle discount

How it works
Eligibility, discount size, household rules, and vehicle types vary by insurer and state. The lowest discounted policy is not always the best coverage match.
Example
A household moves two eligible cars to one policy and receives a discount on specified coverages.
Why it matters
Combining vehicles can simplify billing, but drivers and coverage choices still need individual review.
What to check on your policy
Confirm which vehicles and coverages receive the discount and compare the full premium before and after combining policies.
