As a  car owner, one of the big questions that is constantly on your mind – which type of Auto Insurance is the best choice for me? We understand that it can be quite confusing, but let us break it down for you in simple terms.

When it comes to protecting your vehicle, We have different Auto Insurance options available for you but today we would focus on only three,  Comprehensive, Autobase, and Third-party. Each one offers its own unique benefits, so let’s take a closer look at them one by one.

Comprehensive Insurance: The Complete Coverage

This is the top-tier option when it comes to Auto Insurance. With comprehensive coverage, your vehicle is protected against a wide range of scenarios – theft, vandalism, natural disasters, and even collisions on the road.

The best part? If something does happen, we got you covered. We will take care of the repairs or even replace your car if the damage is beyond repair. Sounds pretty sweet, right? The only downside is that Comprehensive Auto Insurance is the most expensive option, after all they say “better soup, na money cook am”.

Third-party Autobase Insurance: The Sweet Spot

Okay, so just imagine you want that comprehensive protection, but the price tag is just too much for your pocket? No worries – That is where the Leadway Third-Party Autobase Insurance comes in.

Autobase is a hybrid between comprehensive and third-party coverage. You still get that wide-ranging protection, but at a more affordable cost. And the best part? Autobase even covers the repairs to your own car, up to 500,000 Naira. Now, that’s a sweet deal if you ask me.

Some of you might be wondering, “But how do I know if Autobase will work for me?” Well, in our opinion, Autobase is the best of both worlds. You get third-party coverage like Third-party Auto Insurance and on top of that, Leadway will be there to take care of your car if anything happens. It’s not every day that you’ll need to use that 500,000 Naira, but it’s great to know that it’s there for you if you do.

Third-Party Insurance: The  Requirement

Now, this one is just the basic, the bare minimum when it comes to Auto Insurance in Nigeria. With third-party coverage, you’re only protecting the other people – if you damage their vehicle or injure them, that’s what you’ll be covered for. Basically, it’s protecting them, not you.

It’s the cheapest option, for sure, but if an accident happens and your car gets wrecked, you’ll have to cover those repair costs yourself. Not the best scenario, we must say.

Choosing the Right Coverage for You

Alright, so now you know these three Auto Insurance products available at Leadway. But how do you decide which one is the best fit for you?

It all comes down to a few key factors, like your driving habits, the value of your car, and of course, your budget. If you’re a cautious driver and your car is relatively new, comprehensive or Autobase might be the way to go. But if you don’t mind paying for personal repairs and you want to be a bit more risky on the road, Third-party Auto Insurance could be a more suitable option for you.

Let us give you a quick example to help explain this better. Let’s say your car is worth around 3 million Naira. If you have comprehensive insurance and something happens, Leadway will replace it for you. But if you only have third-party coverage, and your car gets damaged, you’ll have to use your own money to get it repaired. Not the best situation, right?
