Connected fleet insurance specialist Flock is to provide cover across Onto’s electric subscription cars under a new deal to support growth plans.

The new insurance policy will support the scaling-up of Onto’s fleet with a commitment to driver safety

Launched in 2017, the Onto EV subscription service claims to have the largest electric car fleet in the UK, having grown by 300% in 2022 and with more thanb 6,000 cars. It offers all-inclusive subscriptions, complete with insurance, servicing, breakdown cover and public charging, supporting fleets and drivers with a flexible switch to EVs.

The new policy will support the scaling-up of Onto’s fleet with a commitment to driver safety.

Vehicles will now be covered by Flock’s Connected Fleet Insurance policy while Onto will also get real-time driving safety insights, derived using data from vehicle telematics combined with other data sets, including decades of road accident data, crime reports, and real-time traffic flows.

Rob Jolly, CEO of Onto, commented: “When it came to choosing our fleet insurance partner, we wanted to work with a business that shared our focus on flexibility and top-quality customer experience – Flock certainly stood out as the obvious choice.

“We’re confident that Flock’s connected fleet insurance will continue to keep our customers safe and allow them to resolve any claims as efficiently as possible, as we continue to scale-up our electric car fleet with new models and grow our community of subscribers.”

Flock’s CEO, Ed Leon Klinger added: “We have long admired Onto as a frontrunner in the world of all-inclusive electric car subscriptions – today we are delighted to welcome them on board as a partner. Flock’s mission is to make the world quantifiably safer, and we can’t wait to support Onto’s continued growth while keeping driver safety at the heart of everything they do.”
