eDrivo Car Insurance: Tailored insurance for electric cars
09 Jul 2025|7,242 views
Income Insurance's eDrivo Car Insurance provides coverage that's tailored to the unique characteristics of electric cars.
As Singapore shifts towards sustainable forms of transportation, electric vehicles (EVs) are continually growing in popularity with more and more drivers switching from internal combustion engine (ICE) cars to fully electric.
EVs contribute positively not only to individual users but also to the environment, and society. Apart from a smoother and quieter ride, they don't produce any tailpipe emissions. This helps reduce localised air pollution, especially around residential areas.
EVs are clearly unlike ICE cars, and that is why they need insurance coverage that's tailored to them. These needs are exactly what eDrivo Car Insurance, which offers comprehensive coverage for EVs, is designed for.
Why do EVs require specialised coverage?
It is important to get suitable coverage tailored for your EV, not just a regular car insurance, which may not be sufficient for your electric car.
Think of insurance policies for ICE cars as 'off-the-rack' clothes for casual wear. On the other hand, eDrivo Car Insurance is a tailored suit. It's a better fit because it matches what an EV needs.
Unlike ICE cars, the biggest component in an EV is its battery pack, which according to this Reuters article, accounts for around 40% of the vehicle's cost.
With eDrivo Car Insurance, you get peace of mind as it gives unlimited battery replacement1 coverage in the event it is damaged in an accident, so you don't have to worry about paying to replace your battery pack.
You can also rest assured that your EV is protected against loss or damage due to malicious cyber acts with eDrivo Car Insurance's cyber hacking coverage2.
Charging on the go
Although most EVs today offer a driving range of 400km, with some even able to deliver over 500km, your busy lifestyle could cause you to forget to charge your vehicle. Income Insurance understands this, which is why eDrivo Car Insurance offers Emergency Mobile Rescue3 service.
So should your EV's battery run out of juice while you're on the move, you won't have to run around to find assistance because a mobile charging station vehicle will be sent your way.
Income Insurance's service provider will arrive at your location to provide DC fast charging until your battery reaches up to 20% capacity. Within Singapore, that's more than enough range for you to reach the nearest, or even the most convenient charging station, safely.
Choosing eDrivo Car Insurance means safeguarding your EV with a policy that's tailored to its unique features. This lets you embrace the benefits of EVs with peace of mind.
