How It Works

Electric vehicles typically cost 15-25% more to insure than comparable gas cars. The main reasons are higher repair costs (specialized battery and electronics components), higher vehicle values, and fewer qualified repair shops. However, insurance costs are trending downward as EVs become more common and repair infrastructure improves. Some insurers now offer EV-specific discounts or lower rates for vehicles with advanced safety features (which most EVs have). Shopping around between insurers can save 20-30%, and bundling home and auto insurance often provides additional discounts.
