Tesla (Model S & X) no longer eligible for Ontario rebate?

[jkirkwood001]

I was checking Ontario's Incentives and Eligible Vehicles page and I swear I used to see the Tesla S and X on this page (a search for "Tesla" even points to this page). It looks like they changed the policy today (March 9).

Neither model is there now. Is this policy new which might have disqualified them?

"Incentives will no longer be provided for PHEVs or BEVs with a Manufacturer’s Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) of $75,000 or more"​

I'm hoping the MSRP is the base price, and we should still get a rebate for a Model 3 assuming it starts at ~CA$45 K, no?

Here's the previous program, still good until Sept. 7, 2018 - better buy your S or X before then!

Anyone?

Actually, I estimate my semi-loaded config (2nd tab) to be CA$64,149, so should be fine for the $14 K rebate.

Holy crap, that's huge! I was looking at the list last night and the 2016-1028 Tesla models were on the list.

It was literally a change overnight.

Meant to provide a link to the previous policy in my original post.

Either way, I think it applies to the base price, not including options. Hopefully someone else can confirm.

This is good, in a way Tesla may price Model 3 with AWD+LR+premium upgrade lower than 75000 for sure. I think we can add EAP after delivery.

Preimum upgrade and EAP shall be a option package, but while Tesla apply for the eiligibilty, because battery size and MSRP difference, they will have to apply LR, SR, SR+AWD, LR+AWD four options at least. All of them shall not exceed 75000.

I can confirm I no longer see any Teslas under "Eligible Vehicles", and it is effective Mar 9 2018. 75D base price exceeds 75K, maybe that is why

Good point, @seanxushen - add all the OTA options after the fact just in case you need to keep the cost down. Subtract the $1,000 premium for each from the $14K you save in incentives!

 

[jkirkwood001]

Tesla might look forward to a run on Ontario S and X orders in August!!

Preimum upgrade involves hardware so could not add later. But I am not sure if it is included in MSRP or not.

I'm confused why people are saying that the previous program is still good until Sept. That's only valid on cars that were ordered before today.

Note that incentives will be provided under the previous EVIP program for EVs ordered prior to March 9, 2018, provided that the EV is delivered and that the application is submitted by September 7, 2018.

I heard Tesla people telling people about the rebates at the auto show and at Yorkdale yesterday. Ouch.

I still think the $75k limit applies to the base price. I copied this from the FAQ section of the EVIP site:

What is the MSRP?

For EVIP, the Manufacturer's Suggested Retail Price (MSRP) is the value of the base trim level for each model not including options, taxes, pre-delivery inspection (PDI) and freight. This value is set once per year and the MSRP value is provided by the vehicle manufacturer.

Good find. Agreed, looks like all Model 3 variants are safe.

For model 3 , the have to list SR and LR as different model as the better size not the same. I am not sure if AWD could list as option.

LR would still be well under $75k.

 

[ZooSean]

LR would still be well under $75k.

How about LR + AWD?

 

[dwharrison]

I’d assume AWD counts as an option, but we’ll see.
