Our new RANGE ANXIETY INSURANCE RESCUE 24/7 recharging service is an insured product that, unlike traditional breakdown cover, provides the insured driver with a roadside emergency recharge if they run out of charge mid journey, or arrive at an out of service public charge point in their EV. In the event of such an incident, the driver simply calls the 24/7 phone number, quotes their registration number for validation, and an emergency recharge unit is dispatched to their location. Our target ETA is 90 minutes, and once on scene 30 minutes recharge will provide approximately 10 to 15 miles range, which our technician will ensure is sufficient to get you to the nearest operational public charging point.
Do I need RANGE ANXIETY INSURANCE ?
Range anxiety insurance is a type of coverage that some insurance companies offer to electric vehicle (EV) owners, which helps alleviate concerns about running out of charge and being stranded on the road.
Whether you need range anxiety insurance depends on your driving habits and the type of EV you own. If you mostly use your EV for short trips within the range of a single charge, or if you have a long-range EV with a reliable charging infrastructure in your area, you may not need this type of insurance.
However, if you frequently drive long distances or travel to areas with limited charging infrastructure, range anxiety insurance could provide you with peace of mind. This type of coverage may offer benefits such as towing services, rental cars, or emergency charging services to help you reach the nearest charging station in case you run out of power.
Ultimately, the decision to purchase range anxiety insurance is up to you and your individual circumstances. It's a good idea to consider your driving habits, the availability of charging infrastructure in your area, and the cost and coverage of the insurance before making a decision.
