EV Expert Appraiser After a No-Fault Accident
With electric vehicles, the high-voltage battery determines the extent of the damage — and hidden cell damage goes undetected without specialist diagnosis. An independent, specialized appraiser secures your full claim. If the accident was not your fault, all costs are borne by the opposing liability insurer — €0 for you.
The Battery Is Decisive — Have It Professionally Assessed
After a no-fault accident, you have the right to choose your own independent appraiser freely (§ 249 BGB). For electric vehicles, high-voltage diagnosis is critical: even moderate damage can affect the battery or its protective structure and determine whether repair or total loss applies. The appraiser's fees are covered by the opposing liability insurer (BGH VI ZR 67/06).
