Tesla is changing its cars in Canada. The website shows that the Model X and Model S have been removed. But, there is a new car called Model Y. The Model Y is an electric car. It's similar to the Model 3. The website says the Model Y is coming soon. This year, or next year perhaps. Only time will tell!
Tesla released a new Model Y RWD in Canada. The cost is now lowered to $59,990 CAD. This can make the SUV eligible for up to $12,000 in incentives.
The car comes from China. It's made in Tesla's Gigafactory Shanghai.
Tesla changed the Model Y Long Range in Canada. They made an update on their website for the new version.
The new version has 497 km range, less than the old one's 531 km range.
Tesla is keeping the same price of $69,990. The range is lower, but they decided not to change the price.
Tesla may have chosen to use LFP chemistry for the battery pack in their lower range vehicles. This is because they have been using this cheaper battery chemistry more often recently.
Tesla sent out around 10,000 cars from China to Canada in the last week.
