No.
There are two EC classifications for quadricycles - Light Quadricycles (up to 4kW) and Heavy Quadricycles (up to 20kW and 450kg).
Anything above that is a Car, a Light Commercial Vehicle or an Agricultural Vehicle.
The difference in insurance costs will be governed by:
- The performance of the vehicles
- Their desirability for theft
- Their cost to repair after a minor accident
- Their cost to replace if written off
- The likelyhood / size of other possible claims (e.g. third party damage, or passenger injuries).
The quad is less expensive, less desirable, probably slower, can't carry 4 passengers, and will cause less damage to anything it hits.

Only if you remove the roof!
