Insurance is getting out of hand

I've been looking at options for my 2015 P90D Model S.
Started around 3 years ago with CommInsure at ~$200 a month.
Moved from CommInsure to RACV last year when they upped rates to around $350 a month.
RACV Renewal is now around $320 Inc GST a month.

Age 41, Rated 1, No Accident History last 3 Years Agreed Value $80,000. $2000 Excess.

Thankfully I'm saving $$$ on Fuel with 8c kwh Electricity otherwise it starts becoming a concern!!

Just got quoted by MB Insurance direct at $450 a month. So there goes a cheaper option.

Just as a further point... If I was to do similar quotes with other EV's at around a similar value its completely different.
For Example
2022 Jaguar I Pace 90000 Agreed Value $2000 excess comes in at $158 Inc GST
2023 BYD Seal $80,000 Agreed Value $2000 Excess: $115 Inc GST
2022 BMW iX $$90000 Agreed Value $2000 Excess: $115 Inc GST
 
I got this quote from Shannons today.
I need to look into it further but it beats RACV by about $20.

I’ve been getting quotes for M3LR agreed at around 75k - ranging from $1700-$3000 pa. Windscreen cover, $1100 excess and no hire car (I’ve got enough other cars and I hate loan cars). Pretty wild the variance, but I’m finding that with my other cars too, even renewals sometimes off the charts, AAMI quoted me $4k to insure a bloody Volvo that everyone else was around $1,000 for - I put the quote through a few times to make sure it wasn’t I’d entered something wrong

My insurance broker obtained a price for me from MB Insurance. At the time I checked if he was earning his fee, and my online price direct was almost double what he achieved.
