I bought Lixiang - see for yourself: they started selling protection against hackers in Russia.
Russian insurance companies have started offering electric vehicle owners insurance against cyber threats. The new policy is designed to protect against the consequences of hacker attacks, including the hacking of car remote control systems, Rosgostrakh representative Artem Martyanov said.
The expert recalled cases of hacking of Lixiang electric vehicles, when fraudsters intercepted the owners' accounts, gained access to control the car and demanded a ransom for its return.
Normal comprehensive insurance does not cover such risks. That's why insurers develop special policies that also provide protection against spontaneous combustion of the battery and evacuation to a charging station.
According to Martianov's forecast, in 5-10 years, insurance cases with cars will be arranged not so much by mechanics but by programmers.
