Zuno General Insurance Unveils Fuel Guard: An Industry-First add on Built for the Future of Car Protection
Mumbai: Zuno General Insurance, a new-age digital insurer committed to making insurance easy, friendly and transparent, has introduced Fuel Guard, an industry-first car insurance add-on designed to give customers an additional layer of protection as India moves towards greater adoption of approved blended fuels.
With increasing adoption of blended fuels, vehicle technologies are evolving too. Fuel Guard is designed to provide additional protection for specified engine and fuel-system components in the event of accidental and unforeseen damage caused directly by manufacturer-approved blended fuel, giving car owners added peace of mind.
The cover is eligible for private cars registered on or after 1 April 2023, where the vehicle manufacturer has approved the specific blended fuel being used. The vehicle must also be maintained as per the manufacturer’s prescribed maintenance schedule, with no unauthorised engine or fuel-system modifications. Fuel Guard can be opted for with applicable private car package, stand-alone own damage and bundled policies, including 3-year long-term policies.
Shanai Ghosh, MD & CEO, Zuno General Insurance, said, “At its core, Fuel Guard is built around a simple idea: as the mobility ecosystem evolves, insurance protection needs to evolve with it. At Zuno, we continuously look at how changes in mobility are shaping customer expectations and ownership experiences. Fuel Guard reflects our effort to translate those insights into simple, practical solutions that make protection more relevant in everyday life.”
With Fuel Guard, Zuno further strengthens its focus on customer-centric motor protection, building on its innovation-led approach through offerings such as Zuno SmartDrive, and introducing solutions that address specific aspects of vehicle ownership as customer needs evolve.
