Yesterday, I went on the US version of the Tesla website and entered an address of a detached house that looks like our average home builder houses in Canada. Nothing fancy, just a 2000sq ft 2-level detached. Something similar to a house I recently bought in Ottawa.
I sincerely was hoping to see an affordable estimate since Elon mentioned that it would cost less than the standard roof (normally costs CAD$15,000 for such a size), but the number was not even close!
What I got is CAD$67,000, and that doesn't even include a Powerwall! An average home buying cannot afford such a roof! I don't care if it's going to pay for itself in 30 years because the initial investment is just insane!
I honestly hope that they revise their pricing, otherwise, I doubt that this product would ever be successful.
