Free Supercharging Offer for Model 3 Premium and Performance

Tesla completely ended its free‑lifetime Supercharging program in 2018, but it has periodically offered free Supercharging for specific promotions. The latest promotion applies to new purchases of a Model 3 Premium or Performance vehicle in North America. According to Tesla’s website, buyers receive one year of free Supercharging, though the offer is “subject to change or end at any time.”

As noted by Electrek, this perk is a nice bonus but is unlikely to be a deciding factor for owners who primarily charge at home. For those without access to a home charger, however, the free year can represent significant savings.

Key details of the offer

• The free Supercharging period starts at delivery and cannot be postponed or redeemed for cash.
• Owners must still pay certain fees, such as congestion fees that apply when a vehicle remains plugged in after reaching 80 % charge at a busy Supercharger site.
• The offer does not apply to vehicles used for commercial purposes (e.g., ridesharing, taxi, or delivery services).
• Customers who traded in a gasoline vehicle to receive the 2,000‑mile Supercharging incentive can use the free‑year benefit first and redeem the mileage after the first year of ownership.
