O mare companie de asigurări a decis să refuze clienții cu mașini electrice chinezești. Care este motivul? • Newsweek România

A major Dutch insurance company, Univé, has decided to refuse insurance policies for electric vehicles from eight Chinese manufacturers due to supply chain issues. The company cites difficulties in obtaining spare parts, which often need to be shipped from China, leading to high repair costs and long wait times. Univé will only offer basic liability coverage for some other brands, reflecting growing frustration among insurers regarding the challenges of insuring vehicles from newer, less established manufacturers. The decision is influenced by past experiences with supply issues, particularly with Tesla, which have raised concerns about the economic viability of repairs for minor damages.
