Zurich Australia partners with Tesla

Zurich Australia announced an agreement with Tesla to be the preferred electric vehicle insurance provider for its customers in Australia.

Through the new arrangement, existing and new Tesla owners can access the ‘InsureMyTesla’ EV offering, provided solely by Zurich using its ‘Edge’ technology, directly through the Tesla app.

Among other benefits, ‘InsureMyTesla’ covers all vehicle repairs including glass, charging equipment and batteries using Tesla’s accredited repair network. The product is available to all Tesla Model 3 & Model Y customers through the Tesla App.

Zurich has acted as Tesla’s preferred insurance provider in Switzerland since 2016.

“EV uptake in Australia is rapidly growing as consumers continue to recognize the importance of lowering their environmental impact. Ensuring these customers receive quality insurance protection is critical for supporting the national transition journey. Zurich and Tesla share a common pursuit to drive a more sustainable future, invest in cutting edge technology and provide leading products and services to a loyal customer base. With shared global strength paired with deep local expertise, this is a natural alignment that will benefit many Australians on our roads.” – Justin Delaney, Chief Executive Officer, Zurich Australia & New Zealand.

“Zurich has a long-standing reputation for protecting its customers in Australia and across the globe. As the preferred provider for InsureMyTesla, Zurich offers Tesla customers affordable and convenient insurance, all accessible within the Tesla App. With InsureMyTesla, Tesla ownership becomes even more secure, giving more Australians the confidence to switch to Electric Vehicles.” – Thom Drew, Tesla Country Director, Australia & New Zealand.
