5) Charging
Charging at home & on the road
Home charging

- Mobile Connector: 120V works for light use; 240V is better for daily commuting.
Public charging
- Tesla Superchargers: built-in routing and preconditioning for trips.
- J1772 adapter: use most public Level-2 chargers.
- CCS Combo 1 adapter: optional for many third-party DC fast chargers (check compatibility).

6) Ownership
Maintenance, winter range & Canadian tips
- Maintenance: No oil changes; rotate tires, replace cabin filter, keep software current.

8) FAQs
Frequently asked questions
Is there still a federal EV rebate for Tesla?
No. The iZEV program is paused/ended and recent base MSRPs exceed the former cap.
Which provinces still offer a rebate I can use on a Tesla?
Québec remains the most active (up to $4,000 on eligible trims). Many others paused, ended, or exclude Tesla. Always verify on official lists before ordering.
Do I need a special outlet at home?
A Wall Connector on a dedicated circuit gives the best daily experience. 120V is fine for light use; 240V improves overnight recovery.
Can I charge at non-Tesla stations?
Yes. Use the included J1772 adapter for most Level-2 chargers and a CCS Combo 1 adapter (if compatible) for many DC fast chargers.
