According to Lexus.ca, prices before tax

NX450h+ starts from $63,225. Top Trim $79,625.

Doesn't look like RX450h+ pricing is out for Canada just yet.

So that means you hit 90k out the door without going for top trim if that doesn't include freight/pdi and other misc fees and taxes.

I know two ppl that got a NX450h+ F sport and they both said ~90k.

NX450h+ is eligibling for iZEV Rabate
even with F Sport trim or Executive Trim
It wasn't qualify previously.

so $85k :lol

These car prices are utterly insane nowadays. Makes an Aston or a Bentley seem like a good deal if you’re spending 120k on a fucking RX.

Are dealership financing still the best way to go for EVs or are banks/brokers offering more competitive rates?

Tesla finances through Scotia. I don't think the dealer actually lends you money, they just go through which ever lender gives them most cash back and reasonable rate. So far I've never seen an auto loan done at the bank cheaper than bank through dealer. Unless you have bad credit. But then you shouldn't be financing a car at that point.

the big dealers (OE franchised store for example)

usually have more buying power, so they will offer better rates than you walking into a bank asking for a loan.

but of course, case by case basis and depending on the ethic of the store (and how much the business manager likes you)

^if its used, you can shop for rates yourself, but still I would say 80-90% of the time, the dealer will still get you a better rate

if its a brand new car, no way you will get a better deal, unless you are doing line of credit thru your house equity etc, but even then, I have heard from clients that it is 6.5% ish nowadays, Hyundai is still financing at 5.99%

nice. 5.99% is already factory subvented rate nowadays.

so looking at the interest rates. 4.99 or 5.99 still isnt bad if youre forking out like 100k+

Banks are giving out 4.5-5.5% interest rates on high rate savings alone so you ultimately balancing out if you kept the money in the bank or financed/leased it.

I kinda regret paying cash for LC.... could have dumped more in stonks.

fo shiz lolol under cutting Toyota and Honda XD, like 5.99% sounds high on its own, but the AutoMall helps us in this sense, after clients shop around, they will come back and be like.. damn 5.99% from Hyundai is pretty good loool

Alright guys... dumb question.... umm... whats a good level 2 charger, lolol don't want to break the bank, smth like >$1000, but ofc cheaper the better hahaha cuz I am cheap af...

Cars will be
- 2021 prius prime
- 2023 model 3 base base base (did i mention it is base?)

Garage = standard 220V plug that has my dryer... no idea what AMP its rated for....

Tesla Wall Charger and adding a Tesla adapter to j1772?

Plus there are provincial rebates

I think hindsight is 20/20. When you got your LC, I don't think the economy was in such terrible shape and interest rates were relatively low. It's only now that banks are offering these interest rates for savings and who knows, you could have lost all that money on Tesla. :troll:

Nah it wouldn’t be Tesla. I’d just dump more into air Canada. That shits been doing pretty well. We bought in at 17ish bucks and it’s at 22 today.

No go, to be eligible means an electrical permit, if my 9+ years of signage job has taught me anything, permitting is time + money... no way this would be the "frugal" way of doing it.

As mentioned, I already have an existing 200V plug on the wall, literally just need a plug and play level 2 charger that can work for both cars...

I bought the grizzl-e one, cheap and so far so good

Man times have changed, I remember when I bought my car in 2015 it was 0% financing for 72 mos, literally free ass money and now it's 6%

Damn it, didn't know the permit was a requirement. My house was pre wired for a 220v in the garage with everything but the plug which is trivial to add in. I'm still years away from getting an EV/PHEV so I guess it's no big deal but bummer to miss out on this kind of rebate.
