Based in Traverse City, Michigan, Hagerty is an automotive lifestyle [1] and membership company [2] and the world’s largest provider of specialty insurance for collectible vehicles. [3] [4] Hagerty operates in the U.S., Canada, U.K., and Germany. [5]

History

  • Proposing revision to tighten the article and provide updated information on the company’s leadership, programs and acquisitions. Updated, this section would read as follows:

Frank and Louise Hagerty founded the company in 1984 with a focus on insuring collector boats. [6] In 1991, the company added coverage for classic cars. [7]

In 2000, McKeel Hagerty, son of Frank and Louise, became CEO. [8] Under McKeel Hagerty’s guidance, the company developed an automotive media arm by launching Hagerty magazine [9] (ISSN 2162-8033), covering the classic and enthusiast vehicle market. In 2020, the magazine was renamed Hagerty Drivers Club Magazine. [10]

Hagerty published its first annual Hagerty Price Guide in 2008, a valuation tool [11] that informs [12] classic car buyers on how to best navigate the digital automotive age. [13] Hagerty also originated both the Historic Vehicle Association (HVA) [14] and the RPM Foundation. [15]

In 2017, the company adopted saving driving and preserving automotive culture for future generations as its corporate mission. [16] To support the mission, Hagerty launched Hagerty Drivers Club, [17] offering members access to events, automotive discounts, roadside service [18] and more. In 2017, Hagerty also acquired DriveShare. [19] The company became the owner and organizer of the Greenwich Concours d'Elégance [20] and established MotorsportReg.com [21] and Hagerty Garage + Social [22] in 2019. The California Mile and the Concours d’Elegance of America were acquired in 2021. [23]
