Insuring the Hongqi E-HS9 – when 0901/000 stops every online calculator

The E-HS9 is the electric flagship of Hongqi, the luxury marque of the FAW group. Its German registration papers usually show only 0901/000 instead of a real type code – and that's where every comparison calculator ends. We insure the E-HS9 anyway: fairly classified, with battery cover – including the matching eVB number for registration.

0901/000
A placeholder, not a type code: TSN 000 simply means "not type-approved" – we classify manually.
Luxury class
A roughly 5.2-metre electric SUV with all-wheel drive – rated in line with comparable European luxury SUVs.

Why 0901/000 becomes a problem – and how we solve it

Unlike many imports, the E-HS9 often does carry a manufacturer key number in its papers – but the type code field only shows the placeholder 000. For tariff calculators that is as good as no number at all: behind 0901/000 there is no specific vehicle with type classes, so the calculation aborts or produces useless results. That is exactly where comparison portals and many insurers fail.

We rate the E-HS9 by its technical data instead: power, vehicle value, segment. As an all-wheel-drive luxury SUV it is classified in line with comparable European premium EVs. For casco cover we focus on what matters in a luxury electric car: a properly set vehicle value, high-voltage battery cover including charging accessories, and – if you wish – new-price or purchase-price compensation for the first years.

With the E-HS9, vehicle value is the added factor: a luxury EV of this size needs casco cover that actually reflects it. We document the value via purchase contract, first registration and equipment, and negotiate new-price or purchase-price compensation for the first years on request.

The usual variables apply on top – no-claims class, regional class, annual mileage, driver circle. None of them are needed for the request: in the form you state only the model. We issue the eVB number as soon as you are happy with our quote.

FAQ

Common questions about the Hongqi E-HS9

Why do my E-HS9 papers only show 0901/000?
The 0901 is a manufacturer key number; TSN 000 is a placeholder meaning "no German type code". It is entered when the vehicle is registered without a German type approval – for example via the individual approval. For insurance this means: no type classes, the classification has to be done manually from the technical data. That is precisely what we do.
Is the E-HS9 battery covered in casco?
Yes, if set up correctly: we make sure the battery is covered including consequential damage (e.g. overvoltage, rodent bites) and charging accessories. Given the vehicle value of the E-HS9, a new-price or purchase-price clause for the first years is also worthwhile.
How much does insurance for the Hongqi E-HS9 cost?
That depends on drivers, region and cover level. Classified correctly, the E-HS9 sits at the level of comparable European luxury EVs – the feared "exotic surcharge" comes from the wrong process, not from the car. Just tell us the vehicle – you usually receive our quote within 24 hours.
Is full casco worth it for the E-HS9, or is partial casco enough?
At this vehicle value, full casco is almost always the right call for the first years: it also covers self-inflicted damage and vandalism. In the quote we calculate both variants with different deductibles so you can see the price difference.
Do you insure other Hongqi 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.
Your E-HS9 is waiting for its plates?

Just tell us which model it is.

We ask for nothing beyond the model. Quote usually within 24 hours – the eVB number follows as soon as you agree.
