My dream of purchasing a Tesla Model 3 Standard Range Plus has died. A dream that was very short lived for sure.
All in, an SR+ would have been approx $58K-$60K CAD, which definitely puts it into the luxury car range. I can't fathom being able to finance a purchase that large with a mortgage already on my tab and plans to start a family soon.
While there are fuel cost savings with an SR+ (and other EVs in general), the upfront cost of these vehicles is outrageous. Plus, since I only have a front parking pad, I'd likely need to install a NEMA 14-50 plug to get any decent charging speeds.
Gahh... maybe one day.
EDIT: Also news of Honda electrifying (even in part) by 2022 is intriguing, but I don't think I can wait 2 years. Maybe I can purchase a Civic hatch and hopefully trade it in for a hybrid Civic hatch in 2022.
