In brief
You insure an electric van — such as an e-Transporter, e-Sprinter, e-Transit or Master E-Tech — largely as you would an ordinary van, with one important difference: the battery makes up a large part of the value. It is best insured, together with the charging cable, under the own-damage cover. Third-party liability cover is, as always, compulsory by law.
Also consider the charging point at your business or at home, the business use and the replacement value as new. At Finass Verzekert we compare several insurers and look for one with good conditions for electric vans.
Pay attention to insuring the battery and charging cable, cover for the charging point, the use (private or business), tools and equipment in the load space, and the replacement value as new. We advise you independently and arrange everything.
Independent, personal, sorted quickly
We compare your van insurance across dozens of insurers, explain where the real differences lie, and arrange the switch from start to finish — without you having to chase it yourself.

What does insuring an electric van cover, and what does it cost?
The structure of the cover in three parts, with an overview per situation below.
Third-party liability + fire and theft
Alongside third-party liability cover, protection against damage to your own car from external causes you cannot prevent.
- Fire and storm damage
- Theft and burglary
- Windscreen breakage and glass damage
- Collision with animals
Comprehensive insurance
The most complete cover, including damage through your own fault, with the battery and charging cable insured as well and preferably on a replacement value as new basis. For an electric van, the obvious choice.
- Hail damage
- Damage through your own fault
- Vandalism
- Unknown party at fault

This overview concerns our service, not the cover. What is actually covered is set out in the policy conditions and on the insurer's insurance card (verzekeringskaart); you receive both before you take out cover.
What does your premium depend on?
- No-claims years: the most decisive factor
- Make, model and list price
- Cover and excess chosen
- Annual mileage
- Age of the regular driver
- Postcode area
Insurers weigh these details differently. That is where your saving is.

Frequently asked questions
This is what people ask us most.
Is the battery of my electric van insured as well?
Under own-damage cover (third-party liability plus third-party, fire and theft, or comprehensive) the battery is insured as well. Because the battery represents a large part of the value, this matters. We make sure the battery and charging cable are correctly stated on the policy.
Are my charging cable and charging point covered?
The charging cable is insured under the own-damage part. For the charging point or wallbox at your business or at home an additional module is often needed. We explain how to cover both properly.
What does electric van insurance cost?
That depends on the value of the battery, the payload, the use and the cover chosen. By comparing several insurers through Finass Verzekert you will find the most competitive premium.
Which cover should I choose for my electric van?
Because of the value of the battery, comprehensive cover, preferably on a replacement value as new basis, is usually the obvious choice. For an older electric van, third-party liability plus third-party fire and theft may be enough. Calculate your premium using the tool.
Are my tools in the load space covered?
Not as standard. With additional equipment and tools cover you insure the items in the load space against damage and theft. We arrange it as part of the package.
Does my insurance also apply abroad?
Yes, Dutch policies provide cover in the EU and neighbouring countries as standard. Charging on the way falls outside the insurance, but breakdown assistance can take you to a charging point. We advise you on this.
Every situation is different. For these situations we have a separate page.
