Insurance protection: comprehensive insurance for electric cars - this is what matters
Above all, one car part deserves attention when choosing the insurance tariff. Otherwise, it can become expensive, warn experts.
The Bund der Versicherten (BdV) advises electric vehicle owners to take out a comprehensive comprehensive insurance policy. The BdV experts recommend an all-risk coverage for the battery, which should be insured at its new value and include disposal costs in the event of a total loss. The policy should also cover consequential damage from animal bites up to at least 20,000 euros and short-circuit damage up to at least this amount.
Additionally, insurance against damage from overvoltage or operating errors, as well as breakdown assistance and protection for a wallbox, are considered sensible.
