Trip distances are approximate round-trip driving distances from Aurora. Cold weather, highway speeds and cargo reduce real-world range — plan for roughly 20–30% less on the coldest winter days.

Charging, decoded

Three ways to charge. You'll mostly use one.

Most EV owners do the vast majority of their charging at home while they sleep. Public fast charging is for road trips — not routine.

Level 1 · Standard outlet

Plug into what you have

Any regular 120V household outlet. Slow, but fine for short daily commutes or as a backup — no installation needed.

Adds roughly 6–8 km of range per hour

Level 2 · Home charger

The overnight full tank

A 240V charger installed in your garage or driveway — the setup most owners choose. Plug in at dinner, leave full in the morning.

Adds roughly 40–50 km of range per hour

DC fast · Public network

Road-trip speed

High-power public chargers along highways — including Tesla Superchargers with GM's NACS adapter. Charge while you grab a coffee.

Adds roughly 150+ km in about 15 minutes

Charging speeds are industry estimates and vary by vehicle, charger output, battery state and temperature.

Ownership

What actually changes when you go electric

What you'll stop doing

  • Stopping for gas — home charging replaces the pump for daily driving
  • Oil changes — there's no oil to change
  • Most brake wear — regenerative braking does much of the slowing for you
  • Idling in the cold — pre-heat the cabin from your phone while it's still plugged in

What you'll want to sort out

  • A Level 2 home charger — we can walk you through options and installation
  • Available incentives — federal and provincial programs change; we'll tell you what applies right now
  • Winter habits — pre-conditioning and planning for reduced cold-weather range
  • A road-trip app — public charging networks are easy once you've used them twice

Straight answers

The questions everyone asks us

What happens to range in an Ontario winter?
It drops — we won't pretend otherwise. Expect roughly 20–30% less range on the coldest days, mostly from cabin heating. The upside: modern GM EVs use heat pumps and battery pre-conditioning to soften the hit, and because you leave home full every morning, most winter commutes are never in question.
Can I charge at a Tesla Supercharger?
Yes. GM vehicles can access NACS-compatible chargers, including Tesla Superchargers, using GM's NACS DC adapter — it stows in your glove box so it's there when you need it.
How long does the battery last, and is it covered?
EV batteries are built to outlast typical ownership, and GM backs them with a dedicated battery warranty separate from the vehicle warranty. Ask us for the current coverage terms on the model you're considering.
Are there still government incentives?
Incentive programs change frequently and vary by level of government. Rather than quote a number that may be out of date, we'll confirm exactly what applies the day you buy — it's part of the paperwork we handle for you.
Can I test drive one before deciding anything?
Please do — ten minutes behind the wheel answers more questions than an hour of reading. Book below and we'll have one charged and ready.
