Does NRMA Insurance cover my electric vehicle (EV), hybrid or plug-in-hybrid vehicle (PHEV) battery?

Our Comprehensive Basics, Comprehensive and Comprehensive Plus Car policies cover your battery for loss or damage caused by a covered incident (such as fire, collision, crash, theft, attempted theft or storm). However, mechanical, structural, electrical, hydraulic or electronic breakdown or failure are not covered under our policies.

For example, if your battery is damaged due to a collision or crash it may be covered. However, we don’t cover your battery if it breaks down due to wear and tear.
