SAN FRANCISCO, CA– August 12, 2004–
Esurance, a direct-to-consumer personal auto insurance company, announced the recent launch
of its auto insurance program in Nevada. Gary Tolman, Esurance President & CEO, stated,
"It's only fitting that Esurance, one of the fastest growing auto insurance companies in
the U.S., now does business in Nevada, home to some of the fastest growing metropolitan
areas in the U.S."
Esurance's entry into the
state benefits Nevada consumers. Tolman continued, "Though it's great for our
business to get into Nevada's rapidly growing $1.3 billion auto insurance market,
it's particularly great for consumers. Anytime additional companies enter a state's
auto insurance market, the enhanced competition helps keep rates reasonable." In
addition to competitive rates, Esurance offers Nevada drivers additional savings
in the form of auto insurance discounts. Two of Esurance's most notable discounts
provide extra savings to drivers who own their own home or pay their auto insurance
premium in full.
Tolman also advised Nevada
consumers to shop around. "Whenever consumers see that there's any activity in
the auto insurance marketplace, they should get new auto insurance quotes to see
if they can save money on auto insurance." To make auto insurance shopping easier
for consumers, Esurance offers the fastest quotes online, along with instant quote
comparisons.
Consumers interested in
getting auto insurance quotes or in Esurance's Nevada auto program should visit
the company's award-winning Web site, www.esurance.com, or call the company's 24/7
service center. Nevada polices are underwritten by Esurance Insurance Company,
rated A (Excellent) by A. M. Best.
