What a Tesla costs in Ontario, including 3.7¢ overnight power

Facts last checked . Prices and incentives change often; confirm with Tesla and the program before you order.

Canadian ordering status (checked October 2026)

Model 3 Premium RWD and AWD orders have been paused in Canada since about October 12, 2026. Tesla says its quota for China-built EV imports is used up and expects to reopen orders in March 2027 if Ottawa issues more quota. The Model 3 Performance is still orderable, and any remaining Premium inventory cars may still be listed. The Berlin-built Model Y is still orderable, but delivery estimates were reported at December 2026 to January 2027 for every trim.

Ontario has had no provincial EV rebate since 2018, so the price you see plus 13% HST is close to what you pay. The China-built Model 3 at $39,490 does not qualify for the federal rebate either, which makes Ontario a straightforward market: no stacking, no paperwork.

Ontario’s advantage is overnight electricity. On the Ultra-Low Overnight plan, power between 11 pm and 7 am costs 3.7¢/kWh from November 1, 2026 (down from 3.9¢), plus delivery charges, which makes a full Model 3 charge cost a couple of dollars and puts Ontario among the cheapest places in North America to run an EV.
