Asda, part of the Wal-Mart family, is one of the many popular supermarket chains expanding its brand into the UK car insurance field. With Asda car insurance (also known as ‘Asda motor insurance’) it hopes to offer value for money as well as additional features and benefits for the consumer.

Asda’s car insurance is split into two categories – Asda Financial Services Car Insurance and Asda Online Exclusive Car Insurance. Each form of Asda car insurance has its own benefits. For example, with Asda Financial Services Car Insurance it will search 20 insurers on your behalf to find the best price and there is a customer service helpline. With Asda Online Exclusive Car Insurance you can manage your policy online.

There are several other advantages to the Asda Online Exclusive Car Insurance, including a guaranteed no-claims discount and RAC cover included as standard.

Both policy types come with several optional extras including the chance to take out a hire car for up to 14 days if your car is stolen, written-off or awaiting repairs at a garage. You can also take out up to £50,000 in legal protection.
