With the world going green to protect the environment, electric cars have become need of an hour. They are the future of four-wheelers as they save fuel costs and also keep the environment clean. Today, electric cars have become popular as many people are opting for these environment-friendly vehicles. However, before driving a vehicle on Indian roads, just like any other car, there is a mandatory requirement for car insurance for electric vehicle too.
The Motor Vehicles Act of 1988 requires every electric car to carry valid electric car insurance coverage when driving on Indian roads. Just like a driving license is necessary, so is car insurance for every car owner.
Similar to the car insurance policy for petrol and diesel cars, the EV car insurance policy offers financial protection to your vehicle against liabilities such as accidental damage, fire, natural calamities, riots, theft of the insured vehicle and third-party injuries or damages to their property. For instance, if you are involved in an accident, and your car causes physical injury to another individual, you will incur a financial liability for the injury that your car caused. The EV insurance policy will take care of this financial liability. It will compensate the individual for the financial loss if your car is damaged and needs repairs, the e-vehicle insurance policy will pay for the repair costs.
Depending on the type of electric auto insurance policy you choose, if you suffer a covered loss, the EV car insurance policy will pay compensation for the financial loss that you suffer. The insurance for EV cars will, thus, secure you financially and also take care of the mandatory requirement of driving the car.
