The right insurance depends on what you drive, how you drive, and what you want to protect. Here’s a practical framework to build your Flex Lease insurance à la carte.

- Collision: Helps address damage to your leased vehicle from a crash.
- Comprehensive: Helps with non-collision incidents (for example, weather-related or theft).
- Personal accident/medical: Helps cover certain injury-related costs for you and your passengers.
