About ThinkEV

Why ThinkEV Exists

ThinkEV was founded by Vlad Pereira, an entrepreneur based in Courtenay on Vancouver Island, British Columbia. He started ThinkEV because most EV coverage came from US-centric outlets that didn't understand Canadian incentive programs, provincial rebate differences, or the incoming wave of Chinese EVs reshaping the market.

ThinkEV covers that ground for Canadian drivers: federal and provincial incentives as they change, charging infrastructure and what it costs to use, model-by-model specs, and the pricing of cars that have not reached the country yet.

ThinkEV is a venture of Vlad Pereira Online, operated from British Columbia, Canada.

Mission

Give Canadians clear, independent EV intelligence: news, analysis, comparisons, and practical tools built for how Canadians actually buy vehicles.

Vision

A Canada where every driver can see what a vehicle really costs to buy, run and keep before they sign anything.
