AXA Affin General Insurance recently has unveiled its first Telematics Motor insurance in Malaysia, the AXA FlexiDrive.
The launch was held at Ciao Ristorante KL, and was officiated by Emmanuel Nivet, Chief Executive Officer of AAGI, with Guest of Honor Professor Dr. Wong Shaw Voon, Director-General of Malaysian Institute of Road Safety Research (MIROS).
“At AXA, our purpose is to empower people to live better lives. We are committed to providing better value and experience to our motor insurance customers, while contributing to improved road safety in Malaysia. According to MIROS and PIAM statistics, one road accident occurs every minute and one car is stolen every 24 minutes in Malaysia. I am confident that AXA FlexiDrive will help us make strides in improving road and vehicle safety in Malaysia, which is a shared goal we have with our Guest of Honor, Prof. Dr. Wong, and MIROS,” said Nivet.
Using telematics technology and innovation, AXA FlexiDrive now helps you to better understand your driving behavior and what could affect your motor insurance premium, including:
(i) Up to 20% Safe Driving Discount: by tracking driving behaviors including Speed, Mileage and Harsh Driving, customers can accumulate premium discounts which they enjoy upon their next renewal.
(ii) Enhanced safety on the road: In the event of accidents, an alert will be automatically triggered. Upon verification, emergency medical assistance will be dispatched to the exact crash location, should the impact exceed the pre-determined severity threshold.
(iii) 24/7 vehicle security and theft recovery: receive real-time alerts when any vehicle sabotage or damage is detected; in cases of theft, upon receiving the police report, AXA will work with the police to recover the stolen vehicle.
AXA has also developed the AXA FlexiDrive mobile app to enable customers to view their Safe Driving Discounts, receive personalized driving tips, and check their car battery status, all at the convenience of the customers’ finger tips!
With motor insurance detariffication now in effect, AXA FlexiDrive is the smarter choice that gives Malaysian drivers greater control over their own motor insurance, enabling them to influence their own premium, improve driving habits, and keep their cars secure. The best part is, customers can enjoy all these added benefits at no additional premium – just pay a standard comprehensive motor insurance premium, and start enjoying all the benefits of AXA FlexiDrive with complete peace of mind.
