Tesla Model S: information, price and comparisons

The Tesla Model S is a large all-wheel-drive electric sedan built in Fremont, California. Tesla announced on January 28, 2026 that production would end in the second quarter of 2026, and the Model S was not on Tesla Canada's price list on October 22, 2026. Its last reported Canadian starting prices, from July 2025, were CA$139,990 for the Model S AWD and CA$159,990 for the three-motor Plaid (1,006 hp, per The Car Guide).

Model S luxury tax and EV rebates

Luxury tax: the federal luxury tax is the lesser of 10% of the price or 20% of the amount over CA$100,000, and it applies to vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating of 3,856 kg or less. At or under that limit, the tax would be about CA$7,998 at the last CA$139,990 price and CA$11,998 on the CA$159,990 Plaid, before options. Check the GVWR on the door-pillar label.

EV rebates: the federal EV Affordability Program covers imported EVs only from a free-trade-agreement country and with a final transaction value of CA$50,000 or less. Check Transport Canada's eligible vehicle list.
