Tesla Rental with Insurance Included
Every Frontier Tesla rental includes basic liability insurance at no extra cost. Unlike traditional rental agencies that pressure you into $30-50/day insurance add-ons, our $65/day rate covers the car and insurance. No surprises, no upsells.
Insurance Included — No Add-Ons Needed
At most car rental agencies, the "$50/day" rate quickly balloons when they add insurance, fees, and surcharges. Here's how Frontier Tesla is different:
- Basic liability insurance — included in the $65/day rate
- No pressure at a counter — there's no counter. Everything is online
- No "loss damage waiver" upsell — we don't play that game
- No "supplemental liability" add-on — liability is included
The price you see at checkout is the price you pay. Insurance is baked in.
What the Insurance Covers
Our included insurance provides basic liability coverage for your rental period:
- Third-party liability — coverage for damage you may cause to other vehicles or property
- Basic coverage — protection during normal use of the vehicle
Before you pick up the car, you'll sign a liability waiver that outlines the terms of coverage, your responsibilities, and what constitutes normal use.
If you want additional coverage beyond what's included, you can use your personal auto insurance or your credit card's rental car coverage (many credit cards include this benefit).
Your Responsibilities
While insurance is included, there are some responsibilities to keep in mind:
- Security deposit — a $500 refundable deposit is collected at booking. This covers incidentals and is returned within 30 days if the car is returned in good condition
- Normal use — the car should be driven responsibly. No off-roading, racing, or use on unpaved roads
- Accident reporting — in the event of an accident, contact us immediately and file a police report if applicable
- Return condition — return the car in the same condition you received it. Normal wear and interior cleanliness is expected

Frequently Asked Questions
Is the insurance really included in the $65/day?
Yes. Basic liability insurance is included in the daily rate with no add-on fees. What you see at checkout is what you pay.
Should I also use my credit card rental insurance?
Many premium credit cards offer rental car collision coverage as a benefit. You can use this as additional coverage on top of our included insurance. Check with your card issuer for details.
What happens if there's an accident?
Contact us immediately. If anyone is injured, call 911 first. File a police report and we'll work with you on next steps. The included insurance provides basic liability coverage.
Is the $500 deposit related to insurance?
