Land Rover is the SUV division of Jaguar Land Rover, an automaker with roots in the United Kingdom. Its vehicles have a long history as the gold standard in off-roading capability among European marques. Today, it offers a diverse line-up of SUVs from the rough-and-tumble Defender to the ultra-luxury Range Rover and everything in between. Its vehicles can differ dramatically in value, performance, repair requirements and part replacement costs, all of which influence insurance pricing. Other factors such as theft experience, vehicle usage, storage, driver history, and postal code can all affect the insurance offer for a particular Land Rover SUV.
Using MyChoice internal quote data, this page reviews Land Rover premiums by model and Ontario city, compares new and used estimates and positions the brand among luxury rivals. It also points to coverage questions around high vehicle values, deductibles, rental transportation and depreciation protection.

Land Rover Insurance Cost and Safety Questions
How much does it cost to insure a Land Rover in Ontario?
Based on MyChoice’s internal quote data, Ontario drivers should budget approximately $3,500 to $4,100 per year for Land Rover insurance. Specific quotes will vary based on the vehicle, the driver’s history, postal code, theft frequency, and other factors.
How safe and reliable are Land Rover vehicles?
According to the J.D. Power 2026 U.S. Vehicle Dependability Study, Land Rover is the third-least reliable brand among those assessed. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has not assessed any newer Land Rover models, which is not unusual for higher-priced and lower-volume vehicles. Land Rover offers some safety and driver assistance features, though not all are standard and it lacks some of the more advanced technologies offered by other automakers such as a hands-free highway driving assist system.
