Easy enough that I could get the car to pass the provincial inspection roughly a month after I got it. How long did it took you to get that Audi S2 road legal?
A lot of the kei trucks and cars have a Suzuki F6A or K6A engine that was also used in some artic cat snowmobile. That kind of commonality makes it easy enough to find parts. Worst case scenario it is a 2 weeks wait time to get the part delivered from Japan. You know what took me more than 2 weeks to get some parts? A 2015 VW golf.
I drive a kei car and I just want to point out that their size makes it less of a burden to see incoming traffic than full size rhd vehicule.
As for the security concerns this would be valid if we were applying the same restrictions on other 25+ years old cars as well as motorcycles.
In Quebec we had the same type of witch hunt against JDM back in 2009 and what came out of it is that we’re the only Canadian province where rhd cars must be 25 years old minimum. So because they said they were not secure enough, they stopped allowing more secure/recent versions of the cars people wanted.
So yeah, I doubt it’s really just a security thing in the end.
The infrastructure is growing quite fast considering how young the whole EV market is.
As for the price that’s exactly what blanket incentives would do. Affordable EVs are hardly developed currently because people buy larger more expensive (profitable) vehicules that would normally be 10k+ over their budget and that 10k is free money in the pockets of the manufacturers. Start giving incentives only for affordable EVs and they will start appearing all over the place
Incentives are great for a few years but then they just become part of the price. Most provinces will eventually remove their incentives towards EV as they become mainstream or at least transition to a subset of EVs maybe leaving out those considered luxury.
What they shouldn’t stop investing in is the infrastructure making those EVs a reliable alternative.
But the A55 doesn’t have a headphone jack, this can be a game changer for some.
I had to import a xperia 1V because the offering for high end phone with 3.5mm jack and an SD card slot is pretty much non-existant where I am (Canada).
Codeberg est bien mais la restriction sur les licenses acceptables veut dire que plusieurs vont choisir une plateforme alternative et ce même si leur projet est techniquement acceptable.
