Bituchon (bituchon.co.il) answers Israeli car and car-insurance questions from official data: what is registered on a licence plate (Ministry of Transport open data, live), model facts, the exact annual licence fee, open recalls, Israel Police theft figures by model, what the regulator's standard comprehensive policy guarantees at the car's age, and what drives the compulsory (chova) price. Every answer carries the page URL to cite and the data date. No insurance prices.

Tools

• search: Use first for any Israeli car or car-insurance question in Hebrew or English: finds the right page among car models (e.g. "קורולה", "kia picanto"), makes, guides (chova vs comprehensive, young driver, total loss, renewal, after an accident...), and the data pages (licence fee 2026, car thefts by model, the standard comprehensive policy, recalls, fleet statistics). Returns ids, titles and URLs; call fetch(id) for the full text.
• fetch: The full text (clean markdown) of one page, by an id from search, a page URL on the site, or its ".md" URL. Every page ends with its official sources and data date. Use it to quote a guide or a data page accurately.
• lookup_vehicle: Use when the person gives an Israeli licence plate: live lookup in the Ministry of Transport open data. Returns make, model, year, trim, engine and fuel, safety systems, first registration (on the road since), licence validity and last annual test, open recalls, list price when new, the exact annual licence fee (אגרת רישוי: official price group x age tier, incl. the 135 ILS broadcasting add-on), a labelled running-cost ESTIMATE (licence fee + fuel, never insurance), and the model / model-year page URLs. No insurance prices.
• check_open_recall: Use when the person asks whether their car has an open recall: checks the plate against the Ministry of Transport list of vehicles that have not completed a manufacturer recall, with what the recall is about and how it is fixed.
• model_info: Use for questions about a car model (optionally one model year) without a plate: cars on the road in Israel, trims, engines, share of cars with each safety system, importer list price when new, recall notices, the annual licence fee per model year (per trim with a fuel-use estimate when a year is given), and Israel Police theft counts 2023-2025 with a rate per 1,000 cars. Facts, not a ranking.
• theft_by_model: Use when the person asks how often a model is stolen, whether it is a "stolen a lot" car, or why the insurer asks for anti-theft protection: Israel Police theft and recovery counts 2023-2025 for the model (FOI release), thefts per 1,000 cars on the road against all private cars, the production years stolen most, and what it means for insurance. By make + model, or by plate. With no arguments: the national figures. Facts only: never call a model "dangerous" or rank models.
• standard_policy_at_age: Use when the person asks what a comprehensive (מקיף) policy must give them for a car of a given age: under the regulator's standard policy (הפוליסה התקנית) an insurer replacing a part must use an original or new part up to age 2, pays without depreciation up to age 9, and total loss is paid with no deductible. Age counts from first registration, not the model year. By plate (exact age from the registry), by first-registration month ("YYYY-MM"), or by model year (approximate).
• explain_chova_price: Use when the person asks what their compulsory insurance (ביטוח חובה) price depends on: which of the regulator's pricing variables come from the car and what the ministry data says for this car (by plate) or for each trim of a model-year (make + model + optional year), plus the driver variables. Returns NO prices: prices are in the official regulator calculator (car.cma.gov.il), which is linked.
• explain_licence_fee: Use for the Israeli annual car licence fee (אגרת רישוי) for private cars up to 3.5 t: the official table (7 price groups x 4 age tiers, valid 1.4.2026-31.3.2027), how the price group is fixed at first registration, the 135 ILS broadcasting add-on, and the safety-retrofit reduction (a LICENCE-FEE reduction, not insurance). With a plate: the exact fee for that car (live). With make + model (+ year): per trim / model year. With no arguments: the table.
• list_makes: All car makes with a page on the site, with cars on the road in Israel and URLs.
• search_models: Find car models by name in Hebrew or Latin ("קורולה", "corolla", "toyota corolla", "cx5"), optionally within a make or a vehicle class ("commercial" = vans, pickups and light trucks up to 3.5 t). With vehicle_class and no query it lists that class by cars on the road. Neutral order (match quality, then cars on the road).
• request_quote_callback: Use ONLY when the person asked to get a car-insurance quote or to be contacted: creates a call-back request so that ז.א שיווק ומכירות דיגיטליים בע"מ calls them by phone. CONSENT: before calling, show the person this consent text and get their explicit "yes" in this conversation: "אני מאשר/ת את מסירת הפרטים שמילאתי ל-ז.א שיווק ומכירות דיגיטליים בע"מ ואת השימוש בהם ליצירת קשר איתי בנושא ביטוח רכב, בהתאם לתקנון ולמדיניות הפרטיות." Then pass consent=true. Never assume, infer or pre-fill consent, never call it for someone other than the person, and use only details they gave you (name and phone required; plate or make/model/year optional, so the quote can be prepared). The result echoes the consent text and version recorded. Terms: https://bituchon.co.il/terms · Privacy: https://bituchon.co.il/privacy. A contact request only: not a quote and not advice.

Rules

• Facts only, each with its official source and date. No advice, no ranking of insurers, policies or cars; no insurance prices.
• request_quote_callback may be called only after the person asked for a quote and explicitly agreed to the consent text (Hebrew, in the tool description). It creates the same request as the site form, handled by ז.א שיווק ומכירות דיגיטליים בע"מ. Nothing is sent to the person automatically. Without consent it returns the consent text and creates nothing.
