THIS IS INCLUDED
Interested in insuring an electric car? This way, please.
 
Here is everything you get with our vehicle insurance:
Third-party liability insurance for your car is compulsory. In fact, you can only register your car with the certificate of insurance.
Third-party liability insurance covers damage that you cause to others with your car. For example, if you touch your neighbour's garden fence when manoeuvring.
Good to know:
  • Flexible deductible: You decide for yourself how much you want to contribute to the costs in the event of a claim.
  • Modular coverage: Supplement your car liability insurance with our additional coverages and choose exactly the protection you need.
  • "Own damage" insurable: If you wish, our car liability insurance will also cover damage that you cause to your own property with your car. For example, if you overlook your child's bicycle while reversing out of your garage.

ELVIA Car Insurance Comprehensive Insurance

Damage to your own car can happen quickly. In these cases, our comprehensive insurance comes into play. 

Our partially comprehensive insurance covers damage that neither you nor another driver has caused (e.g. hail, theft or marten bites).

Fully comprehensive insurance comprises partially comprehensive and collision coverage. It also covers damage to your own vehicle that you cause yourself. For example, if you hit a pole during a parking manoeuvre.

Good to know:
  • Partner garages: If you have your car repaired by our partner garages in the event of a claim, your premium will be lower. You also benefit from our convenient pick-up and delivery service.
  • Enhanced current value: In the event of a write-off, we pay more than the value of your car at the time of the accident.
  • Flexibility: Choose your deductibles and supplement your comprehensive insurance with our additional coverages.
Our insurance for your car is modular and can be flexibly adapted to your needs. Choose from the following additional modules:
Icon Strasse

We assist you quickly and without any red tape in an emergency – be it a breakdown, an accident or theft, 24 hours a day and also in neighbouring countries. Standard coverage includes, for example, the following services:

  • We recover your vehicle and tow it away.
  • We pay for your overnight stay and your journey home.
  • We deliver the necessary spare parts.

 

For even more support, there is our additional "Assistance Top" coverage. This covers the following services, for example:

  • We cover the costs of a rental or replacement car during the repair of your vehicle (including additional costs for a navigation device or child seats).
  • We provide you with our interpreting service in the event of communication problems abroad.
  • We also guarantee the return journey home of your cat or dog

Find more information in our assistance guide.

Ampel Icon

It's easy to make mistakes. With this option, we waive the reduction in indemnity if you caused an accident through gross negligence. You can find more information in our guide on gross negligence.

Icon Auto

This supplement to the partially comprehensive cover insures damage that unknown persons cause to your parked car – and do not report. You can find more information in our 
guide to parked-vehicle damage. 

Icon Haus

This supplement to the liability insurance covers damage to your personal belongings caused by your car. Regardless of whether it is your fault or someone living in the same house.

The premium for your car insurance depends on a number of factors. On the one hand, of course, it is based on the types of cover you select. Third-party liability on its own generally costs much less than fully comprehensive/collision insurance. Your personal details, such as the canton you live in, are also a factor. And, of course, the vehicle to be insured. The rule here is usually: the higher the horsepower, the higher the premium.

Of course you can also discuss our quote with one of our advisors if you still are not sure which insurance is right for you. 
Just moved from Germany to Switzerland? First of all, welcome! As you have probably noticed, things work a little differently here. In Switzerland, car insurance is simply called «Autoversicherung» rather than «KFZ-Versicherung». Our advisors will be happy to explain to you in person over the phone what else you should consider in terms of insurance when moving to Switzerland. And if you are not yet familiar with the local conventions, our legal protection insurance could be worthwhile. With this affordable cover, you have experienced lawyers at your side at all times to provide help when you need it. The policy is completely digital and can be cancelled monthly.
No. Additional drivers do not have to be specially declared. Our car insurance covers the vehicle listed in the policy. Everyone who possesses a valid driving licence may drive the insured vehicle and is insured accordingly, including new drivers. The important thing is to correctly name the most frequent driver when you take out your policy.
No. You simply need a transferable licence plate that you can use for both vehicles. Please contact us if you would like a transferable licence plate.
No, breakdown assistance costs CHF 48 per year and must be concluded separately.
Yes, fully comprehensive insurance automatically includes partially comprehensive cover. The latter can also be insured separately, however.
Partially comprehensive insurance covers losses that you have no control over, such as hail damage, severing of cables by martens or glass breakages. You can find more information on partially and fully comprehensive cover here.

In the event of a claim, we will organise the repairs for you at one of our certified partner companies. This includes:

  • a convenient collection and delivery service
  • a replacement vehicle for the duration of the repair work
  • a three-year guarantee on the repairs

For events that are not insured, such as vehicle services or defects that are covered by the guarantee, you can go to any garage you like.

Residents of Switzerland are generally insured against accidents by their employer or their health insurer. The accident insurance component of car insurance is a form of supplementary cover for children, pets and people from other countries. Our accident insurance pays immediately and covers medical costs, including on a private ward.
No, we only insure vehicles that are registered as private cars.
No. But if you have the glass damage repaired by our partner Carglass, the deductible will not be applied.
