If you’re thinking of driving towards a greener future, here’s what you need to know about electric car insurance.
Saga Standard is a straightforward Comprehensive cover that includes these features:
Saga Select gives you Comprehensive cover with some great features, such as:
Saga Plus includes plenty of additional features. So all that's left for you to do is hit the road and enjoy the journey.
There are three different types of car insurance cover:
Third party insurance is the legal minimum you need to drive your car in the UK, but many people find that Comprehensive cover will give them the most peace of mind.
The ins and outs of what is and isn’t covered will depend on the car insurance policy you choose, so you should always read your policy documentation carefully. However, there are a few things that are generally excluded. These include:
You cannot drive a car without insurance, so if you own a car in the UK, at minimum you need to have third party insurance. You must also insure your car if you don’t drive it, but keep it parked on the street, in a driveway or in a garage.
There are very few instances where you don’t need car insurance, which include:
The police are able to check on the spot if your vehicle is insured. If it isn’t it can be seized and then disposed of unless you get valid insurance and pay charges for its return.
When you take out car insurance, an underwriter will work out how much of a risk there is of you making a claim. They take into consideration a wide range of risk factors, such as:
How much of a risk these are is down to historical statistics. A combination of these factors determines whether the underwriter will be prepared to cover you and at what cost. The more of a risk you’re thought to be, the more expensive your car insurance price will be.
Saga offers comprehensive car insurance for the over 50s. Which includes the following:
We replace child car seats with a brand new one after an accident, even if there's no apparent damage to it.
If you have four or more years’ NCD, we’ll protect it against two fault claims in a three-year period (automatically included for eligible customers who choose the Saga Plus or Saga Select cover levels).
Yes, you and any drivers named on the policy are. Both Saga Select and Saga Plus include cover for driving in EU countries for an unlimited amount of time. Saga Standard includes cover to drive in the EU for up to 90 days in any policy year. We also include some other countries – check which countries are covered.
For most countries we cover, you don’t need a green card anymore.
Yes, you can drive a car that you don’t own or that isn’t insured by you or your spouse or partner, but only on a third-party basis.
Third-party is the most basic level of car insurance, and means that if you have an accident that’s your fault, your insurance will only cover the cost of repairing the other person’s car and their medical expenses. Damage to the car you’re driving or any injuries to you won’t be covered.
You’ll also need to have the permission of the car’s owner to drive it, and it must be insured in its own right.
It's worth checking your Policy Schedule for any endorsements, as exclusions may apply due to certain occupations.
Yes, we offer insurance cover for a wide variety of electric cars.

Yes, we include windscreen cover with Saga Plus, Saga Select and Saga Standard. And if you claim for this it won’t affect your No Claim Discount.
With Saga Plus and Saga Select, as long as you use one of our approved repairers and they don’t need to replace your windscreen, you won’t even have to pay for it (Saga Standard has a £25 excess for repairs).
If your windscreen does needs replacing, and you use a Saga approved repairer, you’ll have to pay a £75 excess (£100 excess with Saga Standard).
Different T&Cs apply if you use someone we haven’t approved – you can find more about this in the ‘Broken glass’ section of your policy book.
Our flagship Saga Plus cover level comes with 3-year fixed price car insurance. This means you get a price that won't go up for three years if nothing changes and the freedom to leave any time you like during the policy year with no cancellation fee. And if you make any mid-term changes like a new car or revised mileage you won't be charged an admin fee either.
