We are in the final stages of finalizing our lease arrangements and for tax purposes we are going to lease our Model S as we can use it as a business deduction with our company. When I called our insurance agent (State Farm) to inquire about leasing a Model S and when I said it will be leased for my business she hinted that it will have to be done separately thereby most likely disqualifying me for a multi car discount for our other car and possibly having to pay higher for both cars.
How have others handled this? I heard that when you lease a Tesla for a business deduction, tesla sort f still considers the car to be a Personal Lease but with the businesses' name added to the lease paperwork so that your business can register the vehicle with the MVA. How does this affect your insurance? Can you still get insurance for the car under your personal policy since your name is on the lease or do you have to get special business insurance?
I appreciate any insight from someone who has been through this route...
