Factors Affecting Electric Scooter Insurance Premiums

Make and Model

It is the biggest factor influencing electric scooter insurance premiums. High-end and premium electric scooters with advanced features attract higher premiums due to their higher market value and repair cost. Conversely, insurance for economic models comes at a lower price.

Year of Manufacturing

Age or year of manufacturing of your e-bike is also taken into account when calculating the premium cost. Generally, latest models attract higher premiums due to their increased market value. On the other hand, premiums are lower for older models due to their depreciation.

Installation of Safety Devices

The installation of safety devices, such as anti-theft devices and motion sensors, reduces your risk of financial loss. As a result, you can reduce your EV insurance premiums.

Add-on Cover

The number of add-ons in your electric moped insurance plan can increase your premiums. However, they are exceptional at increasing coverage of your policy.

Annual Vs Multi-Year Policy

Electric scooty insurance price for 1 year is usually lower than that of multi-year and long-term policies. However, you can avail yourself of heavy discounts when buying multi-year policies.

Type of Policy

The selection of a two-wheeler insurance policy can also impact your premium cost. For example, electric scooty insurance third-party price is decided by the IRDAI based on the battery capacity. It is usually lower than comprehensive EV scooter plans.
