Traditional insurance used to charge similar premiums on vehicles of the same model, age, and brand, even if they were not used equally. This approach was unfair to car owners who barely used their cars. Thankfully, it is changing as insurers are rapidly adopting vehicle technology in the insurance segment. Today, most modern vehicles feature advanced vehicle technology, such as telematics, built-in safety sensors, and connectivity systems. Insurers use these tech features to get real-time vehicle data, including driving speed, braking patterns, mileage, and more. It gives a granular understanding of how a car is used, how it performs, and how safely it’s driven. Insurance companies can use this data to create individualised risk profiles, enabling them to provide personalised car insurance coverage.

Usage-Based Insurance and Pay-As-You-Drive (PAYD) Models

Many Indian car owners today find themselves paying full insurance premiums even when their cars spend most days parked in a parking lot. You’ll mostly see it with individuals who have suddenly shifted from on-site to work-from-home routines. It can also apply to you if you have only short city commutes or own a second vehicle which is used occasionally. This disproportionate premium has created a disconnection between how much you drive and what you should have ideally paid for insurance. Hence, insurers have started providing usage-based insurance where your premiums are calculated based on how much you drive and your precise driving behaviours. This new approach is more transparent and fair, which is why it’s growing in popularity across the country. If you’re new to usage-based car insurance, this blog will give you all the information you need to understand this insurance approach fully.
