It seems like everyone in the city is swapping their gas guzzler for a sleek, climate-friendly electric vehicle. Here’s everything you need to know about battery-powered rides
I wanted a Tesla the minute they were released in 2008, but I couldn’t afford the six-figure price tag. I’m a big tech fan, and I like the idea of being kind to the environment, so I started saving up for an electric vehicle. By 2015, I’d bought myself a BMW i3—a nice carbon-fibre, high-roof hatchback that seemed like it would last forever. It had a relatively small battery, so its range wasn’t the best, but I lived in the city and made it work.
In 2021, I traded the BMW for a Tesla Model Y. It did not disappoint. The charging infrastructure is next-level: the stations are everywhere, and the chargers are fast. My problem with the BMW was that, on road trips, I’d be dealing with a scarce and at times run-down network of chargers. In comparison, the Tesla network has thousands of chargers across North America, and I could drive all the way from Toronto to Mexico City without an issue. Local drives are also a lot of fun.
I could easily see myself driving this car for the next 10 years, but the EV industry is evolving so quickly that I don’t know if my next vehicle will be a Tesla. It might be a Mercedes-Benz, a domestic brand or even a Honda. Either way, I’m pretty sure I’m on Team EV for life.head of the news platform Electric Autonomy Canada, on everything, everywhere in EV landI’ve been driving a Tesla Model 3 since 2019.
