Choose The Right Hyundai GAP Cover For You

Whether your Hyundai is a brand-new Tucson or an i20 with a few years behind it, 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 Hyundai and what you would like the cover to protect. The information below explains how GAP insurance could apply across different types of Hyundai, while Hyundai GAP insurance lease options may also be available for qualifying agreements.

New & Used Hyundai 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 Hyundai

Hyundai drivers have come to expect reliability over the years. From the mighty Hyundai Tucson to the fancy Genesis, these cars are built to last and keep families on the move. But even the cars with the best Hyundai tech can’t outrun depreciation.

If your car’s written off or stolen, your insurer will only pay its market value. That will cause your finances to stall and break down.

Hyundai GAP insurance may potentially bridge the shortfall between what your main insurer pays and what you originally paid for the car, or what’s left on your finance agreement. It may help you replace your Hyundai without dipping into your savings or downsizing to a cheaper model.

Why use InsureWorks to arrange Hyundai GAP insurance

  • Don’t get caught out: The value of your Hyundai will drop like a stone as soon as you roll off the forecourt. GAP may help reduce the financial shortfall caused by depreciation.
  • New and used: Whether you’ve opted for a brand-new Hyundai or opted for a second-hand deal, GAP insurance options are usually available.
  • Don’t lose to thieves: Hyundai cars can also attract thieves. Depending on the policy terms, GAP may also cover the shortfall if your car is stolen and not recovered.
  • Straight to the point: The process is made easy, so you’re not left messing about and scratching your head. InsureWorks arranges simple cover.

How Hyundai GAP Insurance works

  • 1. Your Hyundai is written off or stolen, so it’s time to make a Hyundai GAP coverage claim. It’s not something that anyone wants to think about when you’ve got a shiny new motor on the drive, but the risk is there. If it happens, you’ll be glad you’ve planned ahead.
  • 2. Your motor insurer pays the market value. Standard motor insurance only pays what your Hyundai is worth at the time of the claim, not what you originally paid.
  • 3. If a claim is accepted, Hyundai 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! No stress. The potential payout may help reduce the financial impact, so you can look for your next Hyundai.

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 […]
