    place to buy winter tires for model X in Canada

    Hi everyone, I am getting my MX 100D this Thursday (super exited) and I want to pick up set of winter tires. I decided to get Michelin X-Ice XI3 or Hakkapeliitta R2 on rims. Few websites that I checked (canadian tire, cosco etc) didn't have 100d in their data base, when I tried different model...

    Pulled in to my favorite watering hole, Sierra Nevada Brewery for a quick beer and electrons to find Toyota Rav parked in one of the destimation charger spots ( they have two Tesla, 2 j1772 and a 50 kw ccs). Two leafs had the j1772s which left me the last remaining Tesla charger. As I pulled...

    FWD sensor & firmware update

    Called Customer support to ask about the 50.1 firmware update as I’d had the failed update on ver 50 a few days ago. Was told that sensors in my FWD need to be replaced and until they are, any software update will continue to fail. Anyone else heard something like this? Would’ve been nice...

    Trois-Rivières Supercharger?

    The Trois-Rivières Supercharger should be online by the end of 2017, as Tesla indicates. My guess is that they will be at Les Galeries du Cap. Is there anyone located in 3R and has anyone seen any construction yet?

    Why isn't there a Supercharger at Oakville SC?

    Im surprised Oakville SC does not have any superchargers. This is a SC where at least 50% of owners on the West side of the GTA pick up their vehicles so I would think they had superchargers built here. Also noticed this location was newly built sometime in 2016, strange that they wouldn't add...

    Ontario’s chance of meeting electric vehicle targets by 2020 is ‘zero,’ analyst says

    Another story in the Globe on EVs. Probably right that Ontario won't hit 5% by 2020, especially if the next government cancels any incentives. They also mention that eight months after all of the EV chargers were supposed to be live that only 2/3 are up and running. Ontario’s chance of...

    Are Ontario EV Credits Ending?

    Supercharger - Cambridge, ON

    It seems like SCs are being found at the rate of about one per week. One location that will be very useful for folks going west from Toronto is the Cambridge site. Presumably that would be around 401/24 maybe by the SmartCentre with a Walmart. Has anyone looked there?

    Green plates for EVs in Québec

    Yesterday, we were driving our Tesla in Laval when we got bypassed by a Model X, but it had no green plate. The last time I saw an EV its license plate ended with VEV and that was a month ago. I wonder if they will get other EV codes soon
