Model 3 Highland (Canada) Waiting room

[LifeForLife]

Just picked up a few weeks ago, all I needed to do was bring a bank draft upon delivery. I (and many here probably will agree) don't recommend making the final payment till after inspection.

They actually asked me to do the full inspection (exterior and interior) before the payment

That's good. I had to battle it out a little bit at Oakville to be able to do a lap of the dealership before providing my cheque.

A little more info on the HP differences between the US and Canadian model 3 Highland Performance model.

Quebec friends I have a question for you’ll- did anyone receive the Quebec EV money from the government yet? If yes, how long did it take?

I submitted my application a day after taking delivery of the car. They reached out asking for a signed copy of the sales agreement since the copy I uploaded was missing a signature. It’s been more than a month since applying and just wondering how long it takes.

Just got approved for the QC rebate ! Guess I'll be waiting for the cheque now.

Long time lurker here with a first post.

Is the new Canadian Model 3 Highland still made in China? I’m most interested in the long range M3. The quality is sooo much better from Giga Shanghai!

Thanks to all.

Yes they are still from Shanghai

Not Model 3 related, but on the subject of cars from Giga Shanghai to Canada. I've confirmed that for some months now, the Model Y has been shipping from the U.S. instead of Shanghai and unlike the ones sold in the U.S.,they do come to Canada equipped with the LFP battery.

Yes. You can see the country of origin via tesla-info website.
This odd combo means Canadian 2024 Model Y RWD will not have the same "Range-up" option as the 'muhrican version despite being assembled in US.

Staying on Model 3 HighlandI topic, I checked out this car over the weekend. You can read my thoughts in this M3H vs MY thread. Bottom line.... now I want an M3H! And I was never a fan of the Gen 1.

Anyone in Canada have a 2024 Performance order delivery estimate earlier than July?

WOW! I did not know about Tesla Info. Their inventory listings are amazing with easy to use filters. And they clearly list country of origin as you said. And a lot of other info INCLUDING odometer readings. WOW!

Tesla buyers guides, worldwide inventory and support for owners

Thank you _OP!

Not that I’m aware of.
I’m hoping to see someone to get a VIN soon.

Just wondering if the M3H from China comes with the amber reflectors like the US ones?
Secondly do they have adaptive headlights functioning?

Not sure about the reflectors. I would imagine they’re the same.
The matrix/adaptive headlights are in all new teslas.

Not too sure whatcha mean by Amber Reflectors, but we do get adaptive headlights for highbeams, just not matrix due to Canadian laws. if you can send me a pic of what you mean i can verify for you!

Canada made active matrix headlights legal in 2018 however Tesla has not implemented the functionality them in Canada yet. The amber parking lights and turn signals are standard across the board on all Tesla cars since 2020 as this is an international standard with exception to the USA which can use white or amber. Tesla now sells international cars so yes they are all amber now as it would not make sense to make USA cars with white turn signals and the rest of the world with amber.
