EV market context: EV adoption is small but increasing. The BYD Yuan Plus, priced at $32,000 CAD ($27,000 after the Yukon $5000 rebate), slots into the compact suv segment where it competes against both legacy automakers and other Chinese brands entering Canada in 2026.

That's an annual saving of roughly $2,538, or $12,690 over 5 years — not counting reduced maintenance costs (no oil changes, fewer brake replacements thanks to regenerative braking).
