Mazda Models Our Insurers Can Cover

Mazda has stuck to making cars that are nice to drive rather than chasing every trend, which is part of why owners keep them. Our insurers can offer Mazda GAP insurance across the range, from the Mazda2 and Mazda3 to the CX SUVs, the MX-5 and the electric MX-30. Whether you paid in full, chose PCP, signed a lease agreement or bought used, we can help you compare cover.

GAP insurance doesn’t care if you’re leasing. We can still arrange cover. A write-off could leave you with more than an empty driveway. If you’re comparing Mazda GAP coverage lease options, our insurers may be able to help cover the shortfall between your motor insurance payout and the amount still due under your lease agreement.

Mazda2, Mazda3

Hatchbacks for city driving, commuting and first cars, with the Mazda3 doing family duty as well.

Mazda CX-30, CX-5

The mid-sized SUVs that make up most Mazda sales in Britain. Popular on PCP and common on the school run.

Mazda CX-60, CX-80

The larger SUVs, including plug-in hybrid versions worth checking before you quote.

Mazda MX-5

The two-seat roadster. Usually a second car, often low mileage and worth protecting the invoice price on.

Mazda MX-30

Mazda’s electric model, subject to the electric vehicle price limit on PCP and cash purchases.

Choose The Right Mazda GAP Cover For You

Whether your Mazda is a brand-new CX-5 or an MX-5 that only comes out when the weather behaves, our insurance providers may have an RTI GAP option available. Following an accepted total-loss claim, it could help reduce the financial difference between your motor insurer’s settlement and the original invoice price, subject to the policy terms and claim limit.

The policy that may suit you depends on how you bought your Mazda and what you would like the cover to protect. The information below explains how GAP insurance could apply across different types of Mazda, while Mazda GAP insurance lease options may also be available for qualifying agreements.

New & Used Mazda GAP Coverage

New or used?

Depreciation affects new and used cars alike, so GAP could help protect the price you paid. Cover is available on vehicles up to ten years old, bought within the last 180 days and priced from £5,000.

Petrol & Diesel

Petrol or diesel?

Petrol and diesel models lose value steadily, but the gap between what you paid and what your insurer settles can still be significant. GAP could help reduce that difference if an eligible vehicle is written off or stolen.

Hybrids

A bit of both

Hybrid and plug-in versions often carry a price premium over the equivalent petrol model, which means a larger shortfall to cover if the worst happens. GAP could help protect the eligible invoice price paid for the vehicle.

Fully Electric

Plugged in

Electric models lose value quickly, and the shortfall after a total loss can be larger than expected. On PCP and cash purchases, electric vehicles are covered up to a £50,000 vehicle price. Lease and contract hire have no such restriction.

GAP Cover For Mazda

Mazda has always delivered on driving pleasure. Every model has a smart design that combines practicality and a need for speed. Somehow, a Mazda always seems fun to drive. But even Mazda’s finest design cannot outrun depreciation. 

The value starts to slide the moment you climb into your Mazda for the first time. If it is written off or stolen, your insurer will only pay the current market value rather than what you originally paid. Losing out financially hurts more than getting drenched with the roof down on your MX-5.

That’s where Mazda GAP insurance comes in. It may cover the shortfall, which potentially prevents you from being left out of pocket.

Why use InsureWorks to arrange Mazda GAP insurance

  • Protect against depreciation: Your Mazda is built for driving pleasure, not for financial shocks. Mazda GAP insurance may help reduce the financial shortfall.
  • New and used: Whether you’ve opted for a brand-new Mazda or opted for a second-hand joyride, GAP is available for both options.
  • Don’t lose to thieves: Mazda cars attract all kinds of car enthusiasts, and unfortunately, thieves are no different. 
  • Simple cover, no faff:  No jargon, no confusion. Just straightforward cover that does exactly what it says on the tin.

How Mazda GAP insurance works

  • 1. Your Mazda is written off or stolen. No one wants to be in this position, but it does happen. Being prepared means you won’t take a financial hit and can be back on the road sooner.
  • 2. Your motor insurer pays the market value. Standard motor insurance only pays what your Mazda is worth at the time of the claim, not what you originally paid.
  • 3. If a claim is accepted, Mazda GAP Insurance may top this up to the agreed level. This may cover the shortfall, depending on the policy terms.
  • 4. Hit the road again! Quick, simple, and stress-free. The potential payout may help you financially so you can look for a new Mazda.

My Porsche Taycan 4S GAP Insurance Claim

The Challenge In July 2023, I was involved in an accident that left my car a total write-off. The vehicle was just over 12 months old, and like most cars, it had already depreciated in value. The main insurer’s payout offer wouldn’t have even covered the outstanding finance. This would’ve left me with a nasty […]

Mazda GAP Insurance FAQs

We know you might have questions, here are the four we hear at Insureworks all the time.

If you’re considering Mazda GAP insurance, you may want to think about when the cover starts. This is because depreciation starts from the moment the car rolls off the forecourt. If your car is written off or stolen soon after purchase, there may still be a financial shortfall between your motor insurer’s payout and what you paid or still owe. GAP insurance may help cover some or all of that shortfall, depending on the policy terms.

If your Mazda is stolen or written off, GAP insurance covers the difference between your insurer’s payout and what you originally paid or still owe on finance.

GAP is not a legal requirement, but some drivers often consider Mazda GAP insurance when leasing a car. If your leased car is written off or stolen, there may still be an amount due under your finance agreement after your motor insurer’s payout. Paying for a car that is sitting in the scrapyard is not usually an ideal scenario. GAP may help cover some or all of that shortfall, depending on the policy terms.

Popular Mazda models include the city-friendly Mazda2, family-focused CX-60, and the fancy MX-5. A wide range of Mazda models are eligible for GAP insurance. Always check the policy terms and eligibility criteria. We can usually help you find cover for your car.
