No. A standard car insurance policy can be sufficient to cover you for taking your Electric Vehicle (EV) out on the road, as the risk factors involved in driving an EV can be the same as driving a non-EV. While it is not compulsory to have specialist insurance for electric vehicles, it will cover you for some specific features of an EV. GoSkippy’s EV cover offers coverage for EV-specific items such as, your EV charging cable, your EV battery and wall box.
