In some ways it was rather deceptive of Tesla to hold back on 35k Model 3 and instead sell higher margin long range versions first. But I really cannot fault them on this. It would be like asking Chevy to stop selling their high margin SUVs in order to improve their fleet fuel economy. Each brand ha...

Thanks

I never registered it in Canada, so I'm not sure. However, the car has daytime running lights so I'd imagine it wouldn't be a problem to import.

hahaha, yeah. One of these stupid things I can say I did in my 20s. Driving in -25 Celsius through Alberta with no heater- felt like I was going to freeze to death.

Hi everyone, I posted a couple times here before about how I did a roadtrip in my 2014 Spark EV from Southern California to Edmonton, AB, CAN. In the middle of winter no less. I put together some maps of the back and forth trips. First one is from December 2014, and then when I had to return the car...

PM or reply to the message if you have any leads.

Often times the air is so dense that even if I'm going a slight downhill, I'm still having to push against the cold car. This makes it so I'm only getting good regen on...

Leduc, AB to Blackfalds, AB: I just went 65miles and have 7miles of range left. This is driving 53 mph. The temperature was about 7 degrees Fahrenheit. I'm keeping track of my battery capacity as I go. My hypothesis is that this capacity will change significantly depending on ambient temperature. Ri...
