FAQ
Your questions answered.
Why can EV insurance be different?
Electric vehicles use battery systems, high-voltage components and vehicle-specific technology that can affect assessment and repair considerations. The significance of those factors varies by vehicle, damage and insurer.
What does EV insurance cover?
Cover depends on the insurer, policy wording, selected options, exclusions, limits and eligibility. Read the applicable product documentation before acquiring cover.
Can I enquire about EV insurance through EVITAL?
Yes. You can submit an EV insurance enquiry to EVITAL. An enquiry is not an insurance application, quote, recommendation or confirmation of cover.
Important information
EVITAL provides general information about electric vehicle insurance and facilitates insurance enquiries. EVITAL is not an insurer and does not issue insurance policies or provide financial product advice. Where appropriate, EVITAL may refer an enquiry to a third-party insurance provider or intermediary and may receive a referral fee or other commercial benefit. Submitting an enquiry is not an application for insurance and does not provide insurance cover. If a specific insurance product is offered, review the relevant Product Disclosure Statement (PDS), Target Market Determination (TMD), policy wording, exclusions, limits and eligibility before making a decision.
