It's the Guardian, not the Sun. They have quotes from the insurers themselves.
> John Lewis Financial Services told us: “Our underwriter has temporarily paused offering new policies and renewals on fully electric vehicles while they analyse the risks and costs entailed. This decision does not affect any existing policies in force, or hybrid vehicles.”
- tim333 3y agoThey also give the general figures - 'typical' £959 electric £848 petrol, so it's more the headline that is kind of scary. Though those prices still seem quite high to me. I've paid between £75 and £310 per year to insure a petrol car in the UK over the last decade. But I don't claim much.
- brianwawok 3y agoDid your 75 policy include fixing your car in an accident? In the US at least; the only policies that low only fix the other persons car - not yours, and cannot be used if the car had a loan.
- tim333 3y agoI think it did but I was surprised by the price there as it's not normally that cheap. It was a second car with 'classic car' insurance. I went on a comparison site and got a quote for more than that which I didn't do anything with, and then some guy called me offering to insure for £75. I guess it was a promo to get new customers probably.
