ATLANTA, Nov. 16, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- The latest edition of the LexisNexis® Risk Solutions Insurance Demand Meter reports that quarterly year-over-year U.S. auto insurance shopping was up 1.2% in Q3 2022, up from -2.0% in Q2 2022, marking the first quarter-over-quarter growth since Q2 2021. The upward momentum occurred despite the fact that new vehicles sales remain depressed compared to pre-COVID annual trends, and significant temporary shopping decreases in late-September due to Hurricane Ian. LexisNexis Risk Solutions® observed that much of the Q3 shopping activity occurred in states where rate increases have been implemented in response to a surge in claims costs that began during the second half of 2021.

Key Points:

"We began Q3 with July trending down with the shopping growth suppression we've seen since Q3 2021, but shopping came roaring back later in the quarter.
The week Ian made landfall, shopping volumes in Florida decreased 40%, impacting country-wide shopping volumes the following week by -6%.
LexisNexis Risk Solutions will provide further information on the continued impact of Hurricane Ian on the U.S. auto insurance industry in its Q4 2022 Insurance Demand Meter.
