The current US auto insurance market cycle looks different from those of the past. In 2025, insurers faced a more complex landscape driven by shifts in driving behavior, affordability pressures, vehicle technology and claims outcomes. As the market softens, insurers are balancing short-term expansion with long-term profitability—and sustainable growth will come from targeting the right customers with the right price.

Our panel of experts discussed key auto insurance trends for 2026, with insights to help:

  • Identify emerging risks as driving behavior, vehicle mix and claims dynamics shift.
  • Compete more effectively as consumer behavior reshapes growth strategies. 
  • Grow with greater precision using richer data and more refined segmentation.

  • Moderator: John Weber, senior associate editor, AM Best
