This is indeed a painful time for us electric vehicle buyers for sure.
-Rebates in Canada and the US are poised to disappear shortly.
-There are only 3 or 4 viable all electric car options (in my humble opinion, and for my requirements) that would even work, and not one of them is available for me to purchase at the moment. So, the second any of them are finally available, the tax credit will be gone.... Ugh.
I would have purchased any one of the three cars listed below to take advantage of the rebate before it is gone.
The Chevy Bolt (none to be found in Canada ), Hyundai Kona (Not available until end of this year, or 2019), Tesla (end of this year, early next as well).
The Nissan Leaf has great range, but the battery (with no heat or cooling management) is doomed to a short life, so I won't consider that car.
I'm simply watching the tax credit of $14,000 float away because none of the above three cars are available..... Sad times.
I'm sure our US neighbours are feeling the same frustration. (They have lots of Bolts available though.)
