AXA REWARDS SAFE DRIVERS WITH AN AVERAGE OF 14% SAFE DRIVING DISCOUNT

- AXA Affin General Insurance Berhad (AAGI) rewards AXA FlexiDrive safe drivers with an average of 14% safe driving discount.

- AXA FlexiDrive was introduced a year ago as the first telematics car insurance with the objective to instil safe driving behaviour among drivers and ultimately make Malaysia roads safer for all road users.

KUALA LUMPUR, Nov 1 (Bernama) -- A year after the inaugural launch of the 1^sttelematics motor insurance in Malaysia, AXA FlexiDrive customers are rewarded with an average of 14% safe driving discount based on their safe driving behaviour.

Following the phased liberalisation of motor insurance in 2017, AAGI took the lead to disrupt the motor insurance space by offering telematics insurance that promotes safe driving behaviour among drivers and vehicle safety. AXA FlexiDrive was introduced with the intention to help drivers to be aware of their driving behaviour, offer good driving tips and allow them to take conscious effort to improve their driving habit.  AAGI believes that by making drivers aware of their driving skills and providing useful driving tips, drivers can improve their driving behaviour and make the roads safer for other road users.
 
Commenting on the achievement, Emmanuel Nivet, Chief Executive Officer of AAGI said, “According to the transport ministry, Malaysia has one of the highest accident and fatality rates in the region. We are very concerned and committed to do our part to encourage responsible driving and improve the road and vehicle safety in the country. We are proud and delighted that AXA FlexiDrive has made an impact and in just one year we have received many positive feedback from customers consisting of young or matured drivers, female drivers, parents etc. This proves how AXA FlexiDrive has significantly improved driving behaviours and enhanced the road and vehicle safety, adding value and great experience to all our customers. This is exactly what we hope to achieve in our effort to become a trusted partner to our customers.”

Using telematics technology and innovation, AXA FlexiDrive provides Malaysian drivers a greater control over their own motor insurance, records their driving behaviour and keeps their vehicles secure.

(i) Up to 20% safe driving discount: Safe drivers can enjoy up to 20% safe driving discount. The discount is earned and accumulated monthly based on drivers’ driving style, speed and mileage. Poor drivers will not be penalised but given personalised driving tips to improve their driving behaviour.
