Tesla completely ended its free lifetime Supercharging offer way back in 2018, but it has given customers the perk for certain promotions since then. It brought back free Supercharging for Model S and X a couple of times in 2019, for instance. The automaker\u2019s latest offer is for new purchases for a Model 3 Premium or Performance vehicle in North America. On its website, Tesla has announced that it\u2019s including one year of free supercharging with a Model 3 Premium or Performance, though the offer is \u201csubject to change or end at any time.\u201d<\/p>\n
As Electrek<\/em> notes, this is a nice freebie to have but most likely not a deciding factor for people who charge at home. For those who don\u2019t have access to a home charger, however, this could represent significant savings.<\/p>\n The free Supercharging offer starts at delivery and cannot be postponed or redeemed for cash. Owners will also still have to pay certain fees, such as congestions fees that the automaker adds if a vehicle remains plugged into a Supercharger after its battery reaches 80 percent when a site is busy. The offer doesn\u2019t apply to vehicles used for commercial purposes, such as ridesharing, taxi and delivery services, as well. As for those who traded in their gas vehicles to get the 2,000-mile Supercharging incentive, they can enjoy this freebie first and redeem those miles after their first year of ownership.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
