Singapore-based insurer NTUC Income and automotive marketplace Carro have partnered to launch a usage-based motor insurance policy.

The product, which will be available beginning November 28, will use a ‘pay-as-you-drive’ model, which calculates premiums based on the distance the vehicle is driven. It uses vehicular telematics technology to track the distance driven each month.

According to Carro, in cases where there are leftover ‘un-driven’ kilometres from the previous month’s subscription, the rebates will be used to offset the fees for the following month. Carro’s subscription packages include 1,500 kilometres per month, and rebates earned annually from un-driven distances can reach SG$800, it said.

The subscription package includes insurance, road tax, regular vehicle maintenance, and 24-hour road assistance.
