Just got my final paperwork and it looks good except the Air Tax. Are we supposed to pay this? Thought model S had a heat pump and heat pumps were excluded from this tax?
Thanks

I hadn't heard about the heat pump thing... do you have a pointer to the law in question?

That A/C tax is just another tax grab. That is my take on it.
That Article 17 seems to be cut and dry. I will fire off a letter to the CRA today and try to get a refund. Lets see what happens or what the excuse is.
I am pretty sure that this is collected by Tesla when you buy the car, just like sales tax. But I can't find my purchase agreement, I don't think they put this on My Tesla.
The Order Agreement and Delivery Config are there but not the final agreement including all of the charges including taxes, etc.
Do we know for sure that the AC is powered by the battery and not by the power train of the vehicle? Could it use a belt coming from the electric motor?
One thing I should point out... all air conditioners are heat pumps.
