Already having an X, I’m not interested in a Y, but I know a LOT of people that will be very interested.
Wing doors = hawt
. They should make those standard across all models haha!

I'll be carefully watching the prices of used X's going forward. Closer to the Y release/actual release time should hopefully make a used X more attractive as well. Then the decision becomes harder as well.

No Y for me. Have an X already and a gocart in the 3. Just waiting to replace my fossil Toyota Tundra with a Tesla pickup...Model P.

I am still on the fence on the Y and might get a X instead. The FSD after purchase has gone upto 9600 after delivery price. Seems steep but it does what they claim. Will be a deal breaker for lots of people and well worth the money
Was awesome he talked about Saskatchewan!
That's how you tell he's not American born and raised.

A group of 9 of us were watching the reveal together while also planning a local EV plug-in challenge event. The room erupted in cheers at that point

I suspect that they might have been waiting for Supercharger v3 to be available before doing the trans-Canada stations. There's a huge gap in coverage between Calgary and Northern Ontario that needs filling in, so hopefully that'll be v3 instead of v2.
Having a provincial government that is openly hostile to green initiatives, carbon taxes, etc? This means that there is very little likelihood of provincial subsidies. Unlike BC, Quebec and Ontario (formerly).
In the past 99% of EV sales in Canada have been in AB, BC, ON and QC. According to the data as of the end of 2018 there were 93,091 Zero emissions vehicles sold in Canada and all but 1049 have been in AB, BC, ON and QC.
You have to think it would be very unlikely that the SK government is going to provide subsidies to build charging stations around the provinces. And the other thing is that having EVs in SK doesn't help as much with reducing carbon emissions as 47% of SK's power comes from coal. By the way, southern SK is the best place in the country for solar.

Pretty standard and to be expected in an mini SUV of this class / size for the 3rd row to be occasional use and tight. Would also assume that when the 3rd row is up there is very likely little if any storage room behind that 3rd row. Again, to be expected and nice to have the choice.
Exactly. Going on a trip with some small kids and other family? Put the kids back there and everyone rides in comfort. It's great that it's an optional piece since it's $4k extra, helps keep the cost down for those that have no need for it.

$4K USD(?) for two seats for the pets. The perfect nuclear family. Mom, Dad, 3x minions of your choice, 2x pets of your choice

Luckily it's $4k CAD. I still find that quite high though for what it is.

Hmm... I just think the Y looks too much like the 3. I'm really looking forward replace our ICE compact SUV with the Y. I guess I really need to see it in the flesh to be able to decide. With a white out and white in Y, LR AWD, 7 seater, and AP cost around $92k on the road which is alot of $ still. Hopefully by then, I can pickup a used X for less than that.
