Tesla Increases Prices in Canada By Up To $9,000
Tesla has officially raised the prices of its entire lineup in Canada, implementing an increase that impacts every Model 3, Model Y, Model S, and Model X variant. The price adjustments, which went into effect recently, have left many Canadian Tesla enthusiasts shocked and disappointed.
The price increase varies across the different models, with some seeing a modest bump of a few hundred dollars, while others have been hit with increases of up to $9,000. This sudden and significant price hike has caught many customers off guard, especially those who were considering purchasing a Tesla in the near future.
One of the most affected models is the Model 3, Tesla’s popular electric sedan. The price of the entry-level Standard Range Plus variant has gone up by $2,000, while the Performance variant has seen a staggering increase of $5,000. This means that potential buyers will now have to shell out more money to own a Tesla Model 3 in Canada.
Similarly, the Model Y, Tesla’s compact SUV, has also seen price increases across its lineup. The Long Range variant now costs $3,000 more, while the Performance variant has gone up by $5,000. These price hikes may deter some customers from making a purchase, as the cost of owning a Tesla in Canada continues to rise.
For those interested in Tesla’s luxury models, the Model S and Model X, the price increases are even more substantial. The Model S Long Range has seen a price increase of $6,000, while the Performance variant now costs $9,000 more than before. The Model X has also seen similar price hikes, with the Long Range variant increasing by $7,000 and the Performance variant going up by $9,000.
It is unclear why Tesla has chosen to raise prices in Canada at this time. Some speculate that it may be due to supply chain issues or increased production costs. Regardless of the reason, the price increases have left many Canadian Tesla fans feeling frustrated and uncertain about the future of electric vehicle ownership in the country.
As Tesla continues to dominate the electric vehicle market, it remains to be seen how these price increases will impact sales and customer satisfaction. For now, Canadian Tesla enthusiasts will have to weigh the increased costs against the benefits of owning a Tesla, and decide whether the investment is still worth it.
