Potential Trade-offs

While the Tesla Model 3 is a top-tier EV, Ottawa drivers should consider these factors compared to other electric vehicles:

• Winter Range Impact: Cold Ottawa winters can reduce the Model 3’s electric range. Pre-conditioning the battery and using winter tires can help mitigate this.

• Home Charging Access: Access to a home charging station simplifies ownership. Condo and apartment dwellers should confirm EV charging options in their buildings.

• Tech Learning Curve: First-time EV owners may need time to adjust to Tesla’s touchscreen-centric controls and Autopilot features.

• Premium Cost: While highly capable, the Model 3’s upfront cost may be higher than other EVs like the Hyundai Kona Electric or Chevrolet Bolt.

• Trim Availability: High demand for the Long Range and Performance trims may limit inventory in Ottawa’s used car market.
