- Tesla sold about 8,600 cars in three days at four separate stores in Canada, or roughly one every two minutes per showroom, in January. That equates to approximately 18% of its annual volume for the market. Now, some $30 million in rebates to consumers has been frozen by Ottawa.
Canada is launching investigations into whether Tesla unlawfully gained business by securing $43 million CAD ($30 million USD) in government subsidies for its customers, freezing the disbursement of funds until the matter has been resolved.
