Tesla Insurance Expands, Now Available In 11 States

Tesla has expanded its insurance program to Utah and Maryland, taking the total number of states where it is available to 11. Tesla initially launched its insurance program in California in 2019, claiming that it is up to 30 percent cheaper than competing providers.

The service was expanded to Texas last year and has since been made available in several other states, including Arizona, Colorado, Illinois, Nevada, Ohio, Oregon, and Virginia.

The insurance is based on real-time driving scores in most of the states except for California, where local regulations do not permit it.

While the in-house insurance was only available in one state for the best part of two years between 2019 and 2021, Elon Musk laid out ambitious plans for the service last year.
