I think it also goes without saying that where you live also matters in terms of wealth. 100k a year in Toronto is a middle class income, whereas earning 100k in Timmins, likely gives you a lot more disposable income.

Just ordered my AWD Model 3 today, delivery estimate 3-5 months. The chance that the incentive survives that long seems pretty slim, but I hope the new government will also honor the locked-in orders similarly to yours. Although I do not really expect them to do so, but still hope nonetheless.
I ordered May 18 and got my email May 28th for a June 7th delivery. I ordered them because I was concerned about the rebate and gambled. I knew there were a ton of 3s going to the IC so I figured there was a good chance I’d get in on time. Submitted my application before the polls closed.
What are the chance that MTO will not honour EV rebate for Model 3 AWD model?
There are several threads in the Canada sub-forum about rebates - you should go read them. In any case, you answered the question yourself. The rebate is being issued by the Ontario government and their list of eligible vehicles only lists RWD. Therefore, AWD does not qualify.
Ad I understand it, options don’t count toward the price ceiling. You should read the website their for the rules. You also need to own the car to apply for the rebate so, that would be the timing issue.

There’s nothing for MTO to honour since AWD is not on their list...
Well, I have to disagree. You simply can't generalize that all people buying a Model S/X are independently wealthy. For a lot, and I include myself in this category, the $14,000 rebate was the basis of a go/no-go decision.
And your argument misses the whole point of the incentive: to provide money to make up the difference between an EV and whatever ICE they were considering in it's place. If a Leaf purchase displaces at Sentra, what is wrong with a Model X displacing a Range Rover when the whole point is carbon reduction through higher EV sales. It's not meant to be some sort of social equity program. It has nothing to do with "rich vs. poor". Your argument would also seem to suggest a "rich" person should not get any rebate if they decide to buy a less expensive EV either.
I will say this, however. The program was very poor at measuring actual effectiveness. I was heavily involved in the saveONenergy programs run by the electric utilities a few years ago. We did all kinds of effectiveness measurement including calculating the "free ridership" levels each program saw. (Free ridership is the percentage of those taking advantage of a program who would have made the same decision without the incentive anyway). You will never get free ridership to zero, but until it is actually measured and evaluated, I don't know how anyone can say one class of car "needs" the rebate while another doesn't. For all we know, free ridership levels may actually be higher with less expensive cars. Results are often counter-intuitive.
I agree with it, but hope its not trueSecond that. The only Tesla that is currently available for an EHVIP (Ontario) rebate, is that which is on the EHVIP list which is the 2018 Model 3 Long Range + RWD.
AWD would need to go through the certification process to get on the list and I doubt Tesla is even trying to do that given the likelihood of the program being cancelled.

I got email that my M3 is ready to order. I had reserved on 22nd of April 2018. GTA in Canada.
Total price for all options is around CAD 84,000.00. In that case, am I still eligible for Ontario Rebate?
Can someone confirm if 14,000.00 Ontario rebate is still applicable for AWD Model 3 with long range battery, red multi coat paint, 19" sports wheel, enhanced autopilot and FSD capability. Total price comes out to be CAD 84,000.00. Plz confirm as only RWD long range battery is listed on MTO's website. AWD long range is not in the list at the moment :-(
thanks
Also - when the Model 3 First was orderable in Canada - Tesla Was Not on the Ontario Rebates List anymore (Since in March they Capped it at the $75,000 Limit, and the S & X were all above that), the Model 3 got listed later as it was likely in process at the time, but not yet Priced so could not be listed, until the Canadian Price was settled, first. The Dual Motor might well be in the works. What do Tesla Reps at the Stores Say?
