Tesla launches Model 3 RWD in Canada at record-low $39,490 ($29,000 USD) from China

Tesla has launched a new Model 3 RWD Premium trim in Canada at a record-low price of $39,490 CAD (~$29,000 USD), sourced from its Giga Shanghai factory in China. This is the first time China-made Teslas have been sold in Canada since the country imposed a 100% tariff on Chinese EVs in 2024, creating a significant price gap with higher trims. For owners and enthusiasts, this means more affordable access to the Model 3 in Canada, though it highlights Tesla's strategy of leveraging global production to bypass tariffs and offer competitive pricing.
