Here’s a list of all the EV rebates and incentives Canadians have access to this year:

Federal Rebates

  • The iZEV program offers $5,000 off any EV with a base trim level available for under $45,000 at MSRP, and the highest trim level available for no more than $55,000 at MSRP.

Unfortunately, the Tesla Model Y does not qualify for the federal rebate, but Tesla has gone to great lengths to make sure that the Model 3 does. Here’s a list of all eligible EVs.

Provincial Rebates

In most cases, provincial rebates can be stacked on top of the $5,000 federal rebate to drive the cost of an EV even lower.
