NZI Car Insurance
With more than four million cars driving on New Zealand’s roads, car insurance has become a mandatory part of getting from A, to B. However, not all insurance policies are created equal. Here, Canstar compares how NZI’s vehicle cover stacks up against other insurers.
What car insurance policies does NZI offer?
NZI has a choice of three levels of car insurance:
- Full cover: for damage to your car and damage you cause to someone else’s car or property
- Third party fire and theft: provides coverage if your car is damaged by fire or stolen and your liability for damage you cause to someone else
- Third party: only for damage you cause just to someone else’s car or property
NZI offers its customers two policy choices:
Distinction motor vehicle
A premium policy that comes with added benefits, such as alternative transport and cover for your legal liability for injury and property damage, along with unlimited call-outs under NZI Roadside Assist.
Echelon motor vehicle
When taken out with full cover, this policy covers you for keys and locks, road clearing costs and comes with no excess for windscreen claims.
