Modern motor vehicle insurance for electric car drivers

When you choose If's car insurance, you can be confident that it takes into account the needs of electric car drivers down to the details of the insurance terms and conditions. We are thoroughly familiar with the risks of electric cars, and we carefully select repair partners who understand the latest technology.
Our competitive pricing is based on in-depth analysis of the risks. Therefore, the price of insurance for an electric car depends on factors such as your age, place of residence, the car’s properties and the mileage you estimate on an annual basis.
We reward you with bonuses for your motor third party liability insurance that quickly accrue for years without accidents. Just five years without claims gives you a full 80% bonus and bonus cover.

Electric car insurance needs to be tailored to your specific needs.

We have already insured over 100,000 electric cars in the Nordic countries over the last 15 years. That’s why we claim to know electric cars and the insurance they need better than many others. See below for answers to frequently asked questions.
Are the batteries and charging cable covered?
Traction batteries are covered by If's car insurance just like any other car parts. In the event of collision or other accidents, their damage is covered under the insurance as usual.
At the same time, charging cables are also covered by our Casco insurance policies.
Where and how will any electric car failures be repaired?
As a Nordic insurance company, If has a wealth of experience and researched knowledge on repairing electric car damages.
Repairing an electric car requires above-average expertise, which is why we require our repair partners to comply with the industry’s latest quality and occupational safety standards.
Our repair partners are also committed to the principles of sustainable development.
Can I also insure my charging station?
If you have insured your home with If’s extensive home insurance, the charging station is covered by your insurance policy.
Note that in blocks of flats or terraced houses, charging stations and their insurance are usually the responsibility of the housing company. However, if you have installed a charging station in the garage of a block of flats, for example, at your own cost and in accordance with permits, it is included in your home insurance just like in a detached house.
Another good reason to take out home insurance from If alongside a Casco insurance is that this will give you a 15% discount on all the insurances you centralise with us.
