Minneapolis, MN (12/3/2011) -
Polaris has chosen Progressive(r) Insurance
as its preferred ATV, Side x Side, snowmobile
and neighborhood vehicle insurer. By joining
forces, Progressive-one of the country's leading
insurance providers-and Polaris-a leader in
the power sports industry-are making it easier
for riders to get coverage that protects them
and their vehicles, both on and off their
property.
"We're working together so it's not
only easier for Polaris owners to
buy affordable insurance, but to really understand
what they're
buying," said Progressive Product Manager,
Charlotte Elek. "We're
available anytime by phone; and our website
is filled with
information to help Polaris owners make even
smarter choices about
coverage that protects them and their vehicle."
"We are very excited to partner with
Progressive," said Polaris
Financial Services Manager Kelly Clawson.
"They will be able to serve
our riders with years of power sports knowledge
and experience."
In addition to making it easy to understand
and buy coverage,
Progressive helps Polaris owners save and
manage their money
through a variety of features:
A variety of discounts-Customers save if
they own a home, have a
clean driving record, complete a safety course,
pay in full-and more.
Disappearing deductibles-Customers reward
themselves with a 25
percent reduction in their deductible for
each claim-free renewal
period. After four claim-free renewals, the
deductible disappears
altogether. Progressive offers this currently
in 24 states, and will roll
it out to all states in coming months.
Easy payment options-Customers can choose
to pay in full; or pay in
installments by electronic funds transfer,
mail, online or over the
phone.
