Rabat-Tesla stipulates in Canada that after four of his dealers, scary allegations have claimed $ 43 million in state discounts within $ 72 hours, which led to the premature suspension of the incentives for zero emission vehicles (IZEV) of the country.
Canada launched The program in May 2019 to tackle the output of greenhouse gas emissions (THG). At that time, THG, which was caused by the transport, made a quarter of the Canadian greenhouse gas emissions, half of which came from cars and light trucks.
Consequently the country wanted In order to promote the introduction of zero emission vehicles (ZEVS) by Canadians and Canadian companies equally by introducing the IZEV program, which, among other things, offered an incentive of $ 5,000 for justified ZEVS.
Although the IZEV program was seen on March 31, 2025, the increase in popularity and demand for the program LED To quickly exhaust the assigned resources, which means that the Canadian government takes the IZEV prematurely.
Only hours after civil servants announced The closer setting of the program and four Tesla shops stated to sell around 8,600 vehicles from January 10th to 12th.
According to publicly available data, this has devoured 43 million US dollars of the IZEV fund, which meant that it was stopped on January 12, only 72 hours after the original announcement.
Although it was expected that the demand for electric cars would increase after the announcement, the claim that four shops would sell 2,558 vehicles in one day still sounds far. says Canadian media. When measuring the physical place of the business, it was estimated that the dealers could not even contain a tenth of this number of vehicles.
In addition, experts say If each customer has assigned a 20-minute slot, it would take 850 hours. This would have to work at the same time on the sale of cars for 12 hours, without stop.
The news has caused a turmoil among card dealers across Canada and believes that Tesla had stiffened from millions of dollars of discounts. According to further investigations by Transport Canada, the agency, which is responsible for transport policy and programs, are reportedly.
Tesla still has to react to the Canadian media in relation to the allegations, and reports that nobody could be achieved at the dealers in question.
