No, Direct Auto is not the same as National General, but the two companies are related, as Direct Auto Insurance is a subsidiary of National General Holdings Corporation. National General has owned Direct Auto since 2016, though Direct Auto mainly operates independently from National General. Additionally, Direct Auto and National General have separate headquarters, in different cities.
