Tesla launched its own insurance offerings in California several years ago, and began to expand to additional states late last year. Tesla insurance is now available in a handful of states, with the company saying it hopes to offer it in most U.S. states by the end of the year as it gains approval on a state-by-state basis.
In states other than California, Tesla offers insurance based on real-time collection of driving data, determining premiums by factoring in how much you drive and a Safety Score that incorporates five different factors to gauge how safely you drive.
The Tesla app can be found for free on the App Store [Direct Link].

I don't see electric cars taking off until the issue of batteries is resolved. Having a car totaled after only 8-10 years because the battery is worn out is horrible. 22k for a replacement battery is like 3 engine AND transmission replacements.
In addition, as soon as its cold out battery levels drop sometimes to double digits. (in extremely cold areas). Nothing is close in terms of energy capacity per unit then gas and even more so diesel.
You are assuming that a battery will die after 8-10 years and that it would be $22k for a replacement.
Battery warranties are 8-10 years depending on the manufacturer and yes a $120k car will have a $22k battery replacement if you dont live in a service area, but that is proportional to the cost of the car.
A battery replacement on an entry level Tesla is not close to $22k and a battery replacement on a VW is not close either.
Biggest design overhaul since iOS 7 with Liquid Glass, plus new Apple Intelligence features and improvements to Messages, Phone, Safari, Shortcuts, and more. Developer beta available now ahead of public beta in July.
