The global motor insurance market size was valued at USD 911.64 Billion in 2024. Looking forward, IMARC Group estimates the market to reach USD 1,685.92 Billion by 2033, exhibiting a CAGR of 7.1% from 2025-2033. North America currently dominates the market owing to the rise of usage-based insurance (UBI) powered by telematics, increasing digitalization through mobile apps and online platforms, and the integration of artificial intelligence (AI) to enhance risk assessment, claims processing, and customer service, all leading to more personalized and efficient offerings.
Motor insurance is an automotive insurance policy that offers coverage to the owner of cars, two-wheelers, commercial trucks, and other road vehicles against financial losses caused by accidents or physical damages. It also includes protection against legal liabilities arising due to an accident and resulting in death, body injuries, or property damage to a third party. Nowadays, insurance companies are offering different plans and add-ons, such as cashless claims, depreciation cover, 24/7 road assistance, and towing facility, to provide better coverage and assistance during the claiming process.
Vehicles have currently become a crucial means of transportation around the world. However, a significant rise in the number of private cars has escalated the risk of road accidents and vehicle damage. This represents one of the key factors catalyzing the demand for motor insurance across the globe. Apart from this, governing agencies of various countries are mandating businesses to purchase a motor insurance policy for their commercial vehicles, such as auto-rickshaws, cabs, school buses, tractors, vans, and trucks. Moreover, the increasing use of commercial vehicles for inter-city passenger tour and travel, and heavy-duty vehicles for bulk transportation of goods is creating a positive outlook for the market. Besides this, insurers are offering online insurance solutions with hassle-free and fully digital insurance comparing, buying, and renewing platforms. This, in confluence with the growing internet penetration and the rising reliance on smartphones, is promoting the adoption of motor insurance worldwide. Furthermore, the introduction of usage-based vehicle insurance (UBI) that employs individualized data gathered by the Internet of Things (IoT) sensors to determine insurance premiums is anticipated to influence the market positively.
