The rebate is no longer capped at 30% of MSRP. All trim levels of Volt and Bolt now qualify for the full $14,000 rebate.

The Tesla clause: Battery electric vehicles from $75k to $150k now qualify for the full $14,000. Plug-in hybrids in that price range are still capped at $3k.

Changes are retroactive to January 1.

I don't see in the press release any change for Volt buyers. It seems to imply that the old system of rebate proportional to battery size is still in effect. Or did I miss a previous change?

P.S. I heard today someone ranting about seeing five Teslas with Ontario Government markings. I call BS, but has anyone heard of such a thing?
To qualify for the full rebate a car must be able to seat 5 and have a battery bigger than 17KWh. The Volt fully qualifies. Below is the updated list on the Ontario government website.

Thanks, I did miss it. And to think how happy I was with $8,200 in 2012.
