In anticipation of the start of the factory and the massive distribution of the company's cars in Texas, Tesla is expanding further in the state and will soon provide Tesla Insurance here.
Tesla Insurance is the perfect insurance for Tesla car owners at competitive prices, designed to provide lower rates of up to 20%, and in some cases up to 30%. Tesla introduced insurance to its customers in California in 2019 with the promise to expand to other US states.
At the end of January 2021, The state insurance department approved a revised policy form submitted by Redpoint County Mutual Insurance Co. for a Tesla Insurance Program for private passenger autos, according to the Insurance Journal. This means that Texas will soon join the list of states offering unique insurance from the manufacturer.
Redpoint specializes in private passenger car insurance through independent management agencies. According to the documents, Tesla's insurance program will be distributed through the Tesla Insurance Services of Texas Inc. (Tesla), an MGA formerly known as Samson General Agency.
Tesla Insurance provides unique car insurance based on a driver profile that is automatically generated on Tesla's cloud servers. By using information about the driver, driving style and manner, accidents, etc., the company can provide appropriate discounts that actually make the company's branded insurance much more beneficial than any other insurance company.
Since Tesla Insurance is currently only offered in California, Texas could be the first state to follow. It looks like the company wants to take care of its customers in the states where its car factories are located, which is a smart move.
In August 2020, Tesla opened new vacancies related to insurance in Germany and established an insurance brokerage company in China, which hinted that the company was about to enter these countries' insurance markets. Everything indicates that Tesla seeks to prioritize the launch of insurance services in those areas where the company's manufacturing facilities are located.
