DFM Forthing 7 REEV

Hybrid? Electric? Getting REEV right

REEV vehicles always drive electrically – the combustion engine only charges the battery. For insurance, the exact drivetrain still matters: it affects classification, possible EV discounts and casco modules. If the Forthing 7 is blanket-recorded as "petrol" or "hybrid", you lose money or cover.

We record the drivetrain precisely, cover the high-voltage tech (battery, charging electronics, cables) in casco and deliver all documents for registration via the individual approval. What remains of the special case is just the driving.

FAQ

Common questions about the DFM Forthing 7 REEV

Does the Forthing 7 REEV count as an EV or a hybrid?
Technically it always drives electrically – the petrol engine only works as a generator. For insurance we record it as a range-extender vehicle with e-component cover; where insurers grant EV discounts, we collect them for you.
Are charging accessories covered?
In good tariffs, yes: charging cables and sometimes the private wallbox can be included in casco. We list these modules separately in the quote so you see the scope in black and white.
Do you insure other DFM Forthing models or further Chinese imports?
Yes – we continuously insure vehicles from Chinese manufacturers and other imports without HSN/TSN. See the overview on our car insurance page; for any other model, simply send a request.
