New Delhi: Zuno General Insurance has achieved a milestone in the Indian motor insurance space with the launch of the first of its kind Zuno Smart Drive Policy. The newly launched policy has a feature that allows automatic crash detection on a real-time basis. The ability to detect the accident in real time is set to change the complete landscape of motor insurance in India.
The Zuno Smart Drive Policy includes the feature of automatic detection that is enabled through advanced mobile telematics, which bridges the gap between technology and emergency response. The policy aims to transform the traditional insurance practices into smart, intelligent, and proactive ones. The new proactive safety solutions automatically sense accidents and give the inputs to the emergency response team, thereby eliminating the need for customer inputs. The new measure aims to accelerate response time and provide the safety solution on a real-time basis. This would help save the lives of customers while simultaneously reducing post-crash stress.
“With real-time crash detection, we’re taking a decisive leap forward—moving from reactive support to proactive safety,” MD & CEO of Zuno General Insurance, Shanai Ghosh, said. “Zuno Smart Drive is an insurance that watches out for you, supports you in critical moments, and puts your safety first,” he added.
A lot of road accidents
The feature comes at a critical time, as the country is already reeling with higher casualties in road accidents. As per the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways, India witnessed 168,000 fatalities and 461,000 road accidents, around a 12 percent increase from the previous year. The need for faster emergency responses amid critical situations like these is more required than ever.
Zuno already possesses the unique and India’s first “Pay How You Drive” model with no extra cost. The model pays the driver with higher ratings in safety incentives and policy discounts. Behavioral analysis, such as speed braking and driving consistency, is being tracked, and the incentives are decided based on that directly through the help of Zuno mobile app with no requirement of external hardware.
The latest innovation places Zuno as a forward-looking insurer that focuses on customer-centric innovation. Zuno, earlier known as Edelweiss General Insurance, boasts of over 7 million customers and has got a strong network of digital distribution.
Zuno General Insurance launched India’s first real-time crash detection motor insurance policy, Zuno Smart Drive. This innovative policy uses advanced mobile telematics to automatically detect accidents and alert emergency services, drastically reducing response times and improving safety.
