How does that work for Tesla? I thought Tesla ships them cars from Shanghai; is it because they’re a US-based company?

Tesla makes cars per region, so Teslas will be coming from the USA.

The article answered that. There is a 100% tariff on Chinese originated EVs. Tesla switched back to US made Teslas late last year to avoid that tariff.

Thank you. I guess I should read the article now…

Literally everyone saw that coming

Does Canada have subsidies for EV buyers? They should cancel them for teslas

Canada was getting Model 3s and Ys from Shanghai for a while, until Canada put a 100% tariff on them last year

Maybe they will ship future cars from Germany?

Your figures don't support your claim.

Show us on the doll where Canada hurt you

they're about to stop at the federal level in March I think and at least for Quebec it's down to 4000$ and will be going even lower next year before it completely disappears. Was quite nice initially, got both my EVs with both rebates for a grand total of 12k in savings each time.

We had, but it has now ended for all brands

How would a 25% price increase not affect Tesla?

Likely Shanghai

Even if the overall numbers favor the US (hell, I don't even disagree with your point and that's why the Peso/CAD just dropped 2-4% against the US) tariffs absolutely can be targeted and deeply impact a specific industry, and will naturally impact the industry leader the most. The price of a Tesla in Canada is now 25% higher than it used to be. That's bad for Tesla. End of story.

It’s not just about exports to Canada USA uses Mexican/canadian exports to make stuff they sell, which they will have to find new low cost quality alternatives for now

Can Tesla technically send EVs from Berlin?

No, there's 100% tariff on Chinese made EVs since October 1st, 2024. But Giga Berlin is a nice way to get German build quality I think

Yes my bad. They’ll do the math on if added shipping costs is more or less than tariff.

I’d assume so, if the logistics made sense, and Canada didn’t target Tesla directly.

[removed]

For everyone's information, Tesla has a factory in Berlin, Germany. They will start importing from that factory instead of USA. This is what they did when Canada tariffed China EVS earlier. After Canada did that, Tesla stopped importing from their Chinese factory.

So other countries also do tariffs?

WHATABOUTISM

Going perfect? No. Going really well with historic unemployment, huge investment in infrastructure and signing of the chips and science act. Yeah, pretty good. Stand by your deleted comment you coward. I’ll stand by opinions and not delete it out of fear you punk.

[removed]

All things considered, yes. Record high stock markets, got us out of the pandemic, lowered healthcare costs, got inflation back under control. Things are never perfect. I didn’t expect him to solve all of my problems. At least he didn’t start a fucking trade war with our allies.

Laws can't be written for individual persons or companies.

[removed]

That factory only produces Model Y’s tho… correct? So they would have to ship other models to Berlin from say, Shanghai, and then from Berlin to Canada?

You’re about to find out

We are thinking of implementing a 100% tariff on tesla cars other EVs are good for the environment and planet one bad apple should ruin the innovation.

Hold my beer… not the American one.

Interesting
