Model X Insurance

Just an update here. We have two cars, an X5 and MS, a Progressive Insurance policy, $900 for 6 months for both with high coverage and low deductibles. The MS made up roughly $600 of the overall premium. In swapping out the MS for the MX, it actually dropped our overall premium by about $30 total, so was same or a tiny bit less. The MS was just a 70D, the MX is a 90D.
 
I have 7 kids under 10 and often have 2-6 of them with me in the X. It's the easiest SUV I've dealt with as far as getting kids in and out and installing/uninstalling car seats. That said, it's not as easy as a van or mini-van ;)

The positive of the doors is that when they can open fully there is a lot of room to get kids in and they have smartly arranged them to adjust in a manner that let's you leave a kiddo in the car seat while you maneuver the second row forward for third row access.

The negative is that it's a bit of a spectacle and no more effective than the sliding door of a mini-van.

Nationwide has my cars and house. At first they couldn't add the X because it was > $100k. So theyngot it quoted through Progressive for $1300/6 months. The following day they were able to get underwriting approval from Nationwide to add the X to my existing policy. She expects it to be a lot cheaper but I'll find out the cost on Monday.

Nationwide is telling me they will not insure an X.
 
My State Farm agent just quoted me the following:

multi- $1048.43 or $175/mo
(Meaning we keep our hybrid sedan, this is how much the MX increases it)

single- $1251.21 or $208.54/mo
(Ditch our sedan and lose our multi-car discount)

I was surprised and found this very reasonable for a car that is ~$90k

Interesting. We've been with State Farm for well over 25+ years, but their rates are just outrageous right now. Even though they have a huge market share and a lot of capital to pay out for claims, it's just really bad in my opinion.

They're offering me at the cheapest double what others are, despite the exact same coverage I currently have plus an increase in the car being 20K more than the one I have now.
 
I have a Model S (P85) that I was paying $636 every 6 months. They told me that my Model X was just finished and awaiting delivery. I called to switch to the Model X once I pick it up and I was surprised the insurance went down to $585.
Is your Model X a P90D or regular 90D?
Performance cars always get higher premium, and your P85 would fall into that category, I think.
 
Full disclosure, as my handle on the forum indicates I am an insurance agent. I am independent and primarily write our business with Erie Insurance. My agency has insured several Tesla's. Everything from an S 60 to an S P90D with Ludicrous. My X90 is the first X we have insured and I am at just under $900 a year using a value of $115k. That $900 a year includes a coverage that is similar to lease/loan gap but provides a new replacement vehicle if a total loss occurs in the first 24 months (cost $180 a year but worth every penny). I don't get any special consideration with the rates I pay (State regulations don't allow that). Insurance policies are not created equally and some of the companies I have seen referenced on here make me fear for you guys. Be very cautious with some of the companies out there. A few of these companies could be a huge headache for you, especially on a total loss. You need a company or agent that knows what a Tesla is and how to properly value the vehicle for rating purposes. This is especially true if you have purchased one of the performance models.

I would agree, some of the companies that have been quoting me are simply skimping on stuff to get the price down.

I am getting quotes from $2K to $4K for six months.

I did look into Erie yesterday but they do not insure in my state.
