Zurich introduces vehicle protection products tailored for electric vehicles

Zurich North America announced an enhanced suite of vehicle protection products designed to meet the unique needs of electric vehicle (EV) owners. The comprehensive set of products provides coverage from the repair or replacement of high-voltage rechargeable batteries to roadside assistance for recharging EV batteries that run out of power mid-trip. The suite of products covers nearly all manufacturers including Tesla, Rivian and Polestar.

The offering represents new investment in products and services to support Zurich’s automobile dealership customers and has the potential to help dealerships diversify their revenue streams through the F&I office and the service lane.
