Have your say: Electric vehicle batteries, legislation, and insurance

Written by Steve Molloy

The rapid adoption of electric vehicles (EVs) is transforming the automotive landscape, bringing with it a host of new opportunities and challenges for insurers.

Among the most pressing topics is the management of EV batteries—both in terms of evolving legislation and the claims process.

As regulations surrounding battery recycling, replacement, and safety continue to develop, insurers are finding themselves at the forefront of complex conversations about risk assessment, repair costs, and customer expectations. The long-term impact on policy wordings, premium calculations, and claims handling procedures remains an open question.
