Unique selling points
Combined liability sum of EUR 100 million per claim event, far above the statutory minimum cover limits.
Mallorca cover is included in the liability insurance for temporarily rented cars, motorcycles or campers abroad for up to six weeks.
24-hour breakdown and accident assistance hotline available year-round via the Autoschutzbrief.
No-claims-class protection add-ons ('Rabattretter' and 'Rabattschutz') can shield policyholders from a full premium downgrade after a claim.
Coverage limits

Defence Against Unfounded Claims
Covered
If claims made against the policyholder are unfounded, in whole or in part, the insurer defends against them at its own expense; the AKB does not state a separate sum insured or cap for this defence cover.
Section: A > A.1 > A.1.1
Sind Schadenersatzansprüche unbegründet, wehren wir diese auf unsere Kosten ab. Dies gilt auch, soweit Schadenersatzansprüche der Höhe nach unbegründet sind.
Green Card / International Motor Insurance Card
Covered
If the insurer has issued an international insurance card (Green Card), liability cover also extends to the non-European countries listed on it, unless the country name is struck through; the scope of cover then follows the destination country's legally required level.
Section: A > A.1 > A.1.4
Haben wir Ihnen die Internationale Versicherungskarte ausgehändigt, gilt: Ihr Versicherungsschutz in der Kfz-Haftpflichtversicherung erstreckt sich auch auf die dort genannten nichteuropäischen Länder, soweit Länderbezeichnungen nicht durchgestrichen sind.
Autoschutzbrief (Roadside Assistance)
Optional
Roadside and breakdown assistance is provided under the separate, legally independent 'Autoschutzbrief' contract (with Kasko-Anbindung), covering help after breakdown or accident, towing, recovery, replacement transport and a 24-hour service line; it is not automatically included in the MTPL contract but sold alongside it.
Section: A > A.3 Autoschutzbrief
Nach Eintritt der in A.3.5 bis A.3.9 genannten Schadenereignisse unterstützen wir Sie mit unseren Service-Leistungen oder erstatten die von Ihnen aufgewendeten Kosten im Rahmen dieser Bedingungen.
Driver Accident Cover
Optional
No limit stated
Accident cover for the driver is offered under the separate Kfz-Unfallversicherung contract (A.4) and/or the 'Fahrerschutz' surcharge module listed among the add-on options; sums insured are set individually on the policy schedule and are not stated in the general sources.
Key conditions
Driver restrictions
The vehicle may only be used by an authorised driver who uses it with the knowledge and consent of the person entitled to dispose of it, and only with the driving licence required for that vehicle class; 17-year-olds under the 'begleitetes Fahren' scheme may only drive accompanied by a person named on their certificate, and not if that companion is impaired by alcohol or other intoxicants.
Claim notification deadline
Any event that could give rise to a claim must be reported to the insurer within one week; if a claim is asserted against the policyholder by a third party, this must also be reported within one week of the claim being raised.
Bonus-malus rules
Premiums follow a no-claims class (SF-Klasse) system based on claim-free years, with annual reclassification each January, defined downgrade steps per claim, and optional add-ons such as 'Rabattretter' (limited downgrade protection from SF 25 upward) and 'Rabattschutz' (surcharge-based full downgrade protection from SF 4 upward).
Territorial scope
Cover applies within the geographic borders of Europe and the non-European territories belonging to the European Union; the scope of cover follows the level legally required in the country visited, but at least the level agreed in the contract.
