Transporting and Underwriting EVs

Electric Vehicles (EVs) are on everyone's lips, especially cargo insurers.


EV fires during transportation have raised concerns on how to safely transport what is supposed to be environmentally friendly.

We have put together a sheet to help give an overview on Transporting and Underwriting EVs.

This sheet is especially relevant for
cargo insurers,
EV importers and exporters,
logistics and supply chain experts,
and general enthusiasts on the subject matter.

In it, you will find
an introduction to EVs and battery safety, a pre-transportation checklist,
loading and securing EVs, and more.

The sheet also covers risk factors influencing premiums such as
repair costs,
driver profile,
claims experience,
vehicle value, and power.

Additionally, it includes an insurance risk profile for sea shipment and mitigation strategies.
