Isn't the population of Canada about 10% of the population of the USA?Oh I completely agree. In the same situation, just disappointing that we’re choosing to pay $15,000 more for a very similar vehicle without having many options. Canadian market just doesn’t get enough focus from the automakers compared to our southern neighbors. We’re not even close to 10% of their allocation on many models unfortunately
What’s the consensus on resale value in 1-2 years? Will it hold like they are for high demand vehicles today? My current plan is to take delivery of the GV60 advanced and drive it until the ioniq 5 ultimate (or ioniq 6?) is delivered. At that time, would ideally sell the GV60 for close to what I’ll pay in 2022 (hopefully). I drive around 40,000 km a year, so expect to have higher depreciation…
Ioniq 5 ultimate is 63 k with taxes in BC
GV60 performance 90K With taxes in BC
Still buying GV60 because want ev and think its a good drive until the ioniq comes.
We are, however we are no where near 10% of American allotment. The EV6 and Ioniq had both delivered almost 10,000 units by end of April in the USA and Canada had less then 500 combined. So although we’re roughly 10% of the size we have only received about 2% of the productIsn't the population of Canada about 10% of the population of the USA?
Well 2 out of 3 if not all 3 questions are virtually impossible to answer.Questions:
1. Will gas remain at such a high price in the following two years?
2. Chargin is not free, how much is it to drive 40,000km?
3. What is the depreciation of the EV? Is it greater or smaller than gas vehicles?
Thanks
That's exactly what i have as well. but i don't do 40000km. but I have a work place with free level 2 charging, I don't even need to charge it in home.Well right now I'm trading in my truck for more than I bought it for 3 years ago. That perfect storm won't likely happen again. Also at the moment I'm spending 700$ a month on fuel. After everything is all said and done my financing should be in the range of $600 a month.
Seems like a pretty painless upgrade to me. I know I won't necessarily be saving money, but at the end of the day, I'll have a vehicle that's valued much higher and I won't be simply burning money for no reason either.
We placed preorder on May 6 - Performance Model . I am #365 on build liI made $1,000 deposit for Advanced trim on April 29, 2022 in Toronto.
Any chance to get delivery this year?
If not, I am considering to cancel my pre-order and move to 2023 Mercedes GLC which is expected to arrive early 2023.
To be honest, Ford CEO yesterday said there would be a EV price war next year. It really makes me hesitate to proceed my order.What’s the consensus on resale value in 1-2 years?

i wonder if the 2023 will have any of the deleted 2022 features?We placed preorder on May 6 - Performance Model . I am #365 on build li
Live in Edmonton) I Received an e-mail May 7 informing us that:
“We are currently in between model
years, 2022 production has been closed so there is
a high chance your Genesis will be a 2023. Factory
orders can take between 4-8 months, we currently
do not have an ETA for your Genesis but will
update you as soon as we do and that until we are
assigned a VIN we will not have any updates
regarding an arrival date of your Genesis. Your
next update will be in the second week of July.”
I was also informed test drive should available shortly as dealer is expecting their first GV60 this week.
Yeah, I have no doubts that when materials and components become more readily available to manufacturer's, that they won't hesitate to pump out as many EV's as they can. There's going to be a huge market for cheaper EV's which specifically target those who will only spend 25k on a new car.To be honest, Ford CEO yesterday said there would be a EV price war next year. It really makes me hesitate to proceed my order.

Ford CEO sees electric vehicle price war as EV costs decline
Ford’s chief executive says he expects the cost of building electric vehicles to fall to the point that in coming years automakers will be battling each other for sales of EVs priced around $25,000.www.agrinews-pubs.com
i wonder if the 2023 will have any of the deleted 2022 features
Also on the apples to oranges comparison, the $63K quoted for the Kia is likely before $2K of freight and PDI and another $1K in dealer admin fees, while the Genesis is all-in.That's not truly apples-to-apples. The Ultimate is comparable to the Advanced, which is probably $10k post-tax less, so $63 vs $80 ish using rough figures.
I, also, expect to almost never need to charge at home. I can charge at the office, and also have a couple free 6kw chargers at nearby retailers.That's exactly what i have as well. but i don't do 40000km. but I have a work place with free level 2 charging, I don't even need to charge it in home.
I totally can get rid of my entire gas cost. I just have to be early and charge up, once a week.
What's your location generally? I don't think there are any free charging stations in Toronto area unless I'm missing something...I, also, expect to almost never need to charge at home. I can charge at the office, and also have a couple free 6kw chargers at nearby retailers.
I am skeptical of the article.To be honest, Ford CEO yesterday said there would be a EV price war next year. It really makes me hesitate to proceed my order.

That will be heavily dependent on why the feature was missing in the first place. HDA2 is absent due to a chip shortage, I suspect we’ll see it back when supplies are no longer tight. IFLS and digital side mirrors are absent due to regulation, we‘ll likely see them once they can sell them across NA.i wonder if the 2023 will have any of the deleted 2022 features?
I’m in Calgary. I suspect they are free here because there are so few EVs. If I offer charging, I don’t have to worry too much that my bill will skyrocket, because it will likely be rarely used. In Ontario, BC and Quebec, that may not be the case.What's your location generally? I don't think there are any free charging stations in Toronto area unless I'm missing something...
