Owning a Tata Harrier comes with the risk of expensive damages in accidents. Without adequate insurance, these costs can drain your savings. Car insurance for your Harrier is crucial, ensuring financial safety and compliance with the Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, mandating at least third-party coverage for driving on Indian roads. With insurance, you're protected financially and legally, thereby alleviating the burden of unforeseen expenses, and allowing you to drive confidently.

You can choose from three types of car insurance plans for your Tata Harrier:

1. Third-Party Car Insurance

A third-party car insurance covers any costs that may arise if you have an accident that causes injury or damage to someone else's property. It's usually cheaper than comprehensive insurance, but doesn't cover any damage to your own car.

2. Comprehensive Car Insurance

Comprehensive car insurance covers both the damage to your own car as well as any damage you may cause to someone else's car or property. It's a bit more expensive than third-party insurance, but it provides more extensive coverage and can be a smart choice for protecting your investment in your car.

3. Own Damage Car Insurance

Own Damage Cover is a type of insurance that offers protection to your vehicle against accidents, collisions, vandalism, fire, and other risks. It covers the expenses for repairing or replacing your vehicle, giving you financial security and peace of mind in case of any damage.

Third-party car insurance covers any injuries or damages to a third party that are caused by your insured Tata Harrier. A comprehensive car insurance policy will cover third-party damages as well as damages incurred to your own car. These can be due to:

• Accidents

• Natural calamities

• Theft

• Fire

• Explosions

• Terrorist acts, etc.

Some of the expenses that are excluded from your Tata Harrier insurance are: 

• Natural wear and tear

• Damage to tyres (unless caused by accident)

• Damage occurring to the car on account of driving while intoxicated or while not owning a valid driving licence

• Damage or loss to the car while it was being driven outside the permitted geographical limits, etc.

You can buy certain add-on covers to increase the scope of coverage of your Tata Harrier insurance policy. Here are some common add-on covers in car insurance:

• Zero Depreciation Cover:

This cover ensures that you receive the full value of your car or its parts without considering depreciation, offering comprehensive protection against the loss of value over time.

• No Claim Bonus Cover:

By abstaining from filing claims during insurance years, you become eligible for a bonus upon renewal, which may manifest as a reduced premium or increased coverage.

• Engine Protection Cover:

This cover is crucial as it provides insurance for engine damage, which is typically not covered by standard car insurance policies, offering added financial security for your Tata Harrier.

• Return to Invoice Cover:

In case of total loss, this cover helps bridge the gap between your car's invoice value and its depreciated value (IDV), ensuring you receive the full invoice value for your Tata Harrier.

Regular servicing keeps your vehicle in good condition, potentially reducing insurance premiums.

Accumulate NCB rewards by not filing claims during the policy term, leading to lower renewal premiums.

Cover minor repair costs out of pocket to retain NCB rewards and keep premiums down.

• Install Approved Anti-Theft Devices

Lower insurance premiums by fitting ARAI-approved anti-theft devices in your Tata Harrier.

• Compare Premium Quotes Online

Before purchasing insurance, compare premium quotes online from various providers to find the best plan for your needs.

• Maintain Battery Health:

Regularly check your car's battery and clean the terminals using a wire brush to remove any buildup, ensuring a reliable power supply for smooth operation.

• Monitor Coolant Levels:

Check your car's coolant levels monthly and refill as needed to prevent overheating and maintain the engine at its ideal operating temperature.

• Air Filter Inspection:

Regularly inspect the air filter and replace it if it looks dirty or clogged to ensure proper airflow and optimise engine performance.

• Engine Warm-up:

Before hitting the road, gently start the car for a few minutes to allow the engine to warm up gradually. This promotes better lubrication and enhances engine efficiency.
