Does a loan through Tesla Financing Appear on your Credit Bureau (in Canada)

Hello,

I am considering a Tesla purchase and would like to finance through Tesla. For those that have done this, I am wondering if the Tesla loan shows up as a regular auto loan on your credit report (either Equifax or Transunion)? I know there will be a hard hit to get approved for the loan, but once you take out the loan, I read in some U.S. forums that the loans are not reported on the credit bureau, unless there is a late payment? I am wondering if this is true in Canada also.

Thanks!
 
Any loan through Tesla will be held by one of their financing partners. It will be with one of the following: RBC, BMO and Scotiabank. So yes, it will show up as an auto loan through one of those banks. There is a pinned thread at the top of this particular forum regarding Financing Tesla Vehicles in Canada where you can search for lots of info about the lending process.
