Why Nexon EV Owners Need Specialised Insurance
The Nexon EV isn’t just another car—it’s powered by advanced lithium-ion batteries, complex electronics, and dedicated charging equipment. Repair and replacement costs for these components can be much higher than those for regular petrol/diesel cars.
Here’s why a tailored insurance plan is crucial:
● Battery replacement costs: A new EV battery can cost ₹5–7 lakh, depending on capacity.
● Charger expenses: Replacement of a home or portable charger can cost ₹40,000–₹60,000.
● Specialised garages: Repairs often require authorised EV service centres.
● Towing requirements: EV breakdowns may need specialised towing arrangements.
With Zurich Kotak, Nexon EV owners get access to EV-specific add-ons and services, ensuring financial safety against these unique risks.
