    1. This is perfectly normal for new cars/brands coming onto the market. It isn’t because they’re Chinese, it’s because insurers don’t have historic data on the performance and issues of these brands.

      So what I’m hearing is you wang the deets into [moneysupermarket.com](http://moneysupermarket.com) like always, and get dozens of quotes, like always. I literally did this, for a top-spec Jaecoo 7. Loads of quotes, from about £400 on up.

      They only asked five insurers, ffs.

      Bollocks article from CarWow, and shite reporting by The Graun.

      Why has The Guardian started posting so many anti EV stories recently?

      These things will be 2000% more reliable than a Range Rover.

      Insured my BYD absolutely fine, reasonable prices from multiple insurers.

      Seems to be a fair few EV’s where insurance is even more expensive.

      I’d suspect most of them are insured through a fleet scheme such as motability.

      We have just leased an electric VW transporter for our business. Previous diesel van insurance was about £350 a year. We had hell of a job getting insurance, was quoted nearly £3k from some companies. Other insurers said they won’t touch electric vehicles as they are often written off, instead of repaired.

      We eventually got cover for £1,500 for the year, but it took days of ringing around to find anyone who wasn’t taking the piss.
