Tesla prices have gone up $10000 - $30000 in Canada due to tariffs (April 2025)

I don't think many Canadians will be buying even if they were almost giving them away.

 

wow, that's great to see!

 

And yet they are still turning a profit. Kind of flies in the face of what some say. I guess leftist extremists better pick up the pace & set more stores on fire & randomly shoot into the buildings - people inside be damned. Virtue signaling a la destructiveness. Found their calling

 

Also heard they lost their government rebates due to cheating (creative book-keeping).

YMMV

 

hmmm. guess they're all cheating?
Thank you Captain rumor mill.
Tesla And EV Market Could Take Hit With End Of EV Tax Credit
Any tax incentives for any manufacturer turn on what parts are made and what percentages.

 

Sometimes the rumor mills are correct.....
Tesla Canada says its shady $43 million incentive grab was a misunderstanding
Must be a world record; selling 8653 units in 72 hours. Didn't know their Canadian dealership had that kind of capacity....

FWIW: this is the same guy that claimed he could save the USA government more than a TRILLION dollars a year through DOGE.

 

hype is the name of the leon game

 

Need to teach Trump a new word, "embargo." That will clean up anything not killed off by his latest word, "Tariff."

According to the follow-up link backlogged paperwork legally allowed them to dump tons of free money applications into the system. Notice it was competing dealerships, not the government that were bitching about it.
As for this "news" feed - wow LOL really shocked with Electrek. From their post:

It's creepy either way when media outlets stoop to editorial zing / low class hyperbole like Hitler or Libtards. Is it any wonder centrists jumped ship to the dark side?

 

It’s a wonder to this centrist

 

Canadians are not supporting F'Elon Musk at any price.

 

Thank you Captain superlatives. Our nieces / nephews are in Toronto & they (2) recently bought teslas. Should have said hair on fire leftist extremists don't buy them. They are a minority (Tesla Owners in general) within a minority (woke virtue signaling extremists).

I wouldn't read too much into it. This is just the defensive strategy their lawyers (lairs) came up with to defend their clients (dealerships). They're probably currently negotiating terms of fine (settlement, depending on strength of gov't case), no-wrong-doing, and a NDA; so no-ones the wiser.

That's how the game is played - you get caught; come up with an excuse and/or blame others. Just like a child...... Unfortunately; business entities don't go to jail for fraud. They just get fined and/or lost of business license. Then they just spring back up under a new name and ownership title.

Sorry for the 'downer' in advance....

 

There appears to be lean times ahead, but 2024's profits will likely hold them over till musk gets out of helping the feds rain in obscene deficits;
