Re: EV Insurance
A lot of people don't bother to tell the insurance company its is special
or the company simply doesn't care. A rep for Progressive told me they
just consider Alternative fuel vehicles to be the same car with some
aftermarket modifications... EV's would probably fall under the same deal.
Remember that collision insurance will only cover the blue book value of
the car, you might want to get some "additional equipment" insurance to
help cover the EV parts. Although if you are in an accident and the
insurance company totals the car you can usually buy it for its parts
value (which is usually less than the cash they give you). The ev
components are likely to be salvageable and you can use them again in your
next conversion.
