It’s true. They are surprisingly cheap to insure. The current theory is that they are new and insurance companies don’t have enough data yet. Everyone expects rates to skyrocket as more $40k repair bills come in.

I kind of doubt rates will go up like that. It's not like BMWs, Audis, etc are much cheaper to repair (by "authorized repair shops" at least), and those similarly are not wildly more expensive to insure.
