Car Insurance

New Zealanders love their cars, so set yourself on the right road with our car insurance.

What do we offer?

Car Insurance

Under the hood or out on the open road, sometimes things can take a wrong turn for car owners. We'll look after your car with our car insurance options, so you can focus more on what drives you in life instead.

We cover your private vehicles like cars, motorcycle or trailer, and even cover caravans too.

We have a range of car insurance products, so you can find the one that fits you best:

  • full cover for damage to your car and damage you cause to someone else’s car or property.
  • third party fire and theft which provides coverage if your car is damaged by fire or stolen and your liability for damage you cause to someone else. 
  • third party only for damage you cause just to someone else's car or property.

Each car insurance policy comes with various automatic and optional benefits.
