Unique selling points

Avantage Bon Conducteur (ABC) offers up to -30% off the premium, stacking with the standard bonus-malus, available from day one even for young drivers.

Driver bodily-injury protection is included in every formula (even the entry-level Eko), with no deductible, and extends to borrowed/rented vehicles and cycling.

0km roadside assistance with no distance franchise from the Tiers Intégral formula upward, a level of service usually reserved for comprehensive ('tous risques') policies elsewhere on the market.

Deductible waived as a loyalty reward ('Cadeau de franchise') after 3 consecutive claim-free years on the 'Intégrale' formulas.

The car insurance offer received the 2024 'Label d'Excellence' award from Les Dossiers de l'Épargne for the quality of its guarantees.

Key conditions

Driver restrictions

Coverage requires the driver to hold a valid category B driving licence. Novice drivers (licence held under 3 years) and young-driver programmes (under 31, less than 2 years' licence, no prior claims) benefit from dedicated 'Avantage Jeune' terms and preventive-driving courses that accelerate bonus progression.

Claim notification deadline

Theft must be declared within 2 business days (plus a police report), natural catastrophe claims within 30 days of the ministerial order, and all other claims within 5 business days.

Bonus-malus rules

In addition to the statutory bonus-malus (CRM) coefficient, Crédit Agricole applies its own 'Avantage Bon Conducteur' (ABC) discount, currently advertised as up to -30% on the premium (older archived materials referenced a -20% ceiling), stacking with a -10% discount for low-mileage drivers (<7,000 km/year) and -5%/-10% for existing home/multi-policy clients.

Territorial scope

Coverage applies in mainland France, overseas departments/regions, EU member states, the UK, Vatican, San Marino, Monaco, Liechtenstein, and other non-EU states shown on the green card. For stays exceeding 3 months outside the EU/UK, only third-party liability applies. Natural catastrophe, technological catastrophe and terrorism-attack guarantees are limited to metropolitan France.
