Ontario Ends Electric/Hydrogen Vehicle Incentive Program

As of July 11, Ontario has cancelled the electric/hydrogen vehicle incentive program. Moving forward, there will be no incentives being given to electric and hydrogen vehicles. Any vehicles purchased and delivered before July 11 are still eligible for a claim. If you're still waiting for delivery, if the order was placed by the dealership before July 11, you have up to September 10 to have it plated to be eligible for a claim.

This is a huge hit for anyone interested in any BMW i or electric BMW's. It will be interesting to see if BMW provides any further support than the current electric vehicle credit that is currently available.

For the i3, I think it's going to be a huge hit. Very few actually like the i3 but are willing to experience it given the amount of credits that are available - $5,000 from BMW and another $13,000 from the Ontario government which many would use as a downpayment so you could have an i3 originally leasing for over $1,000 to low-to-mid $800's. While $800/month payment is still steep, it's going to be the entry price to test out an i3 and is a lot better than paying over $1,000.

But with that said, dealerships know their inventory and know what they must move so I also wouldn't be surprised to see dealerships having aggressive in-house incentives to try to move cars especially the i3/i3S.

A'men.

Sorry I didn't like paying out of my own pocket to help people buy $100,000 Tesla vehicles. No sympathy from me on this topic.
