Choose The Right GAP Insurance for Your Mercedes

Whether your Mercedes is fresh from the showroom, new-to-you, fuel-powered, hybrid or fully electric, GAP cover can help reduce the financial sting if it’s stolen or written off. Because sadly, even a Mercedes can depreciate faster than you can say “heated seats.”

New & Used

Fresh plate or pre-loved prestige?

RTI GAP could help if your insurer’s payout doesn’t quite match what you paid. Because “it was worth more to me” rarely works as a claims argument.

Petrol & Diesel

Classic Mercedes drive

From A-Class runarounds to E-Class motorway machines, petrol and diesel Mercedes models still know how to lose value.

Hybrid

Bit electric, a bit fuel, very grown-up.

Lower emissions, clever tech and the comfort of a backup engine. Hybrid models can still come with a very Mercedes price tag, so RTI GAP could help protect what you paid.

Fully Electric

Silent, smooth, and suspiciously quick.

From EQA to EQS, electric Mercedes models are packed with tech, comfort and instant torque. GAP cover could help reduce the financial shock if your EV is stolen or written off.

Mercedes are market leaders

Mercedes has been the market leader for comfort, class, and technological innovations throughout the history of motoring. From the smart A-Class to the powerhouse AMG range, every model has been designed to strike a balance between performance and luxury.

When you’re inside a Mercedes, it simply feels different. You can’t beat that powerful pull as you accelerate away, and then the effortless glide as you cruise along the motorway. It’s more than just a car.

But even the most advanced Mercedes models can’t outrun depreciation. As soon as you pull away, the value starts to slide. There’s nothing that can be done to pump the brakes on depreciation, but Mercedes GAP insurance may provide a safety net for your bank account.

How Mercedes GAP Insurance works

1. Your Mercedes is written off or stolen. Whether it’s an accident or theft, it’s a nightmare scenario, but it’s worth thinking about so that you can prepare for the worst.
2. Your motor insurer pays the market value. Standard insurance only covers what your Mercedes is worth today, rather than what you paid for it originally. That value drops faaaast, so you could end up being caught out financially.
3. If a claim is accepted, Mercedes 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! Simple, clear, and no faff. The potential payout may help you replace your Mercedes or clear your finance, so you can get back on the road without a financial sting.

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 […]

Mercedes GAP Insurance FAQs

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

GAP is not a legal requirement, but some drivers often consider Mercedes 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.

If your Mercedes is stolen or written off, GAP insurance may help cover some or all of the difference between your motor insurer’s payout and what you originally paid or still owe on finance. This is depending on the policy terms.

If you’re considering Mercedes 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.

From the compact A-Class and CLA to the impressive AMG range, Mercedes have plenty of models available. A wide range of Mercedes models are eligible for GAP insurance. Always check the policy terms and eligibility criteria. We can usually help you find cover for your car.
