The official Canadian ID.4 Facebook.

Ok. The email from the dealership with "view my deal" went to junk folder. It takes my to the same as the reservation page. It says "Your custom built has been locked" "Deposit placed".
The Canadian version of the portal can be considered a work in progress and does not have the same functionality as the American version. Sometime in the future you may be able to track the status of your order.
So I glanced at the auto trader ID4s nationwide... and I'd have to say the prices are laughable and sad at the same time. Douchebags in Que have bought the car, received a ton of rebates 13k? and now they are trying to resell at 10-15k more than MRSP?
and😢 and🤯 and mostly🖕🖕 to those sellers...Especially frustrating when you figure they were beneficiaries of being priority over other provinces (aside from BC) because of their mandated EV quotas.So I glanced at the auto trader ID4s nationwide... and I'd have to say the prices are laughable and sad at the same time.

It makes me wonder if there's a restriction on selling the car to anybody outside their province. I'd also say, it's a shame the province doesn't step in a force these people to repay their rebate if they resell their cars within a certain time period. Something to keep people from doing this sort of thing. But Suppose in the end, nobody will buy these and after the end of year I'd expect VW to finally ramp up dramatically deliveries to Canada.
The BC rebate has to be returned to the BC Government if the car is sold within a year of purchase.
Same in Québec.
As long as there's a shortage and people willing to pay a premium this will happen. Quite a few people have sold their ID.4 in the US for what they paid or more. Recent gas prices have had a serious impact on demand for EVs, if you drive a lot the savings can be substantial. I wouldn't call the douchebags, they are taking advantage of the market conditions just as everyone else does in other markets.So I glanced at the auto trader ID4s nationwide... and I'd have to say the prices are laughable and sad at the same time.

Before doing your Quebec bashing, I would suggest that you do your homework properly. Just follow this link : 2022 Volkswagen ID.4 Only '22 ID.4 Pro with Statement Pkg. in Ontario! - WoodbridgeSo I glanced at the auto trader ID4s nationwide... and I'd have to say the prices are laughable and sad at the same time.

And it's not just ID4's, though EV's obviously are in high demand. So are hybrids, or even a lot of cars in general. Search for prices on Toyota Siennas (2021+ hybrid ones), it's equally "entertaining". The used prices have started to fall in the US (though still way too high), things will eventually settle in Canada too. I don't blame the sellers or the buyers, no one is forcing anybody to do anything here. Yes it sucks to wait, but I don't like paying more than MSRP. That's my choice, others have other priorities, and thus some will make money and some will spend (more of) theirs.

It’s no fun bashing fellow Ontarians. Que is always a good target though except for the Habs.
When the time comes I was going to to do the math on the prepaid maintenance package to see if it made sense financially. I had a look at the recommended maintenance schedule and there is not much to it, visual inspections, occasional brake fluid changes and cabin filters. If the price was reasonable I may purchase just so that I don't have to debate with the service writer what service work needs to be done.
I decided to buy a 4y Prepaid maintenance plan for $559. I figure that any visit would cost at least $100 plus the cost of 2 brake fluid flushes and cabin filters would easily exceed the cost of the plan. Not to mention that there would be no question of a warranty claim being denied due to lack of maintenance.
Only got the wheels coverage for 5 years, in our household we are known to scratch rims without assigning blame to anyone. It's already paid for a flat repair and indeed we have the rear passenger side rim that will need to work done eventually.
Did you get a spare? The tire tax should have been $20 for 4 tires. Get a refund from your dealer, $5.60 including the tax = a decent beer.
No spare, they probably have this as a standard due to some vehicles having a spare. Driving to dealership, talking to them about getting a $5 refund, diving back home... It's not worth the $5... lolDid you get a spare? The tire tax should have been $20 for 4 tires. Get a refund from your dealer, $5.60 including the tax = a decent beer.
