Tesla Halts Model 3 Orders in Canada, Citing Chinese EV Import Quota Discrepancy

Tesla has reportedly ceased accepting new orders for its China-made Model 3 in Canada, claiming it has exhausted its allocated import quota for vehicles produced there. This move, which impacts the more affordable Premium trim, could delay new orders until 2027. However, official Canadian government data suggests a significant portion of the import permits for Chinese EVs remain available, raising questions about Tesla's stated reason.
