Canada’s second quota window for importing electric vehicles from China has seen minimal uptake, with less than one percent of the allocated quota utilized so far. The slow adoption comes amid ongoing trade tensions and regulatory scrutiny over Chinese-made EVs entering the Canadian market. Industry observers suggest concerns over tariffs, quality standards, and supply chain reliability may be contributing to the hesitation. Automakers and policymakers are watching closely as the window remains open, with potential implications for Canada’s clean energy transition and automotive sector.
