Tesla-Sales in Canada collapse: Reasons and outlook

Tesla-Sales in Canada collapse: Reasons and outlook

The Tesla-sales in Canada slumped massively in January 2025 - a decline of around 70 % compared to December 2024. The main causes are the sudden stop of state subsidies for electric cars and significant price increases for Tesla-models. But not only Tesla is feeling the effects, other electric car manufacturers such as Chevrolet and Hyundai are also experiencing a sharp drop in sales.

Why are the Tesla-registrations in Canada falling?

Several factors have led to this significant slump:

  • Discontinuation of the iZEV program: The sudden suspension of the nationwide e-car premium affected all manufacturers, in particular Tesla.

  • Price increase for Tesla: Increases in January 2025 led to the loss of additional regional subsidies in Quebec and British Columbia, causing final prices to rise by up to CAD 21,000.

Other e-car brands also affected

  • Chevrolet EVs: Decrease by 65 %

  • Hyundai EVs: 30 % less sales

This decline shows how dependent the e-car market is on subsidies. In Europe, too, the number of registrations for Tesla and other manufacturers - a trend that continues to pose challenges for the industry.
