Tesla is bundling one year of complimentary Supercharging with new Model 3 Premium and Performance purchases in North America. The promotion marks the latest incentive as the automaker continues rotating benefits to drive sales.

The offer applies to Model 3 Premium and Performance variants purchased in North America. Tesla discontinued its unlimited lifetime Supercharging program in 2018 but has periodically revived free charging as a promotional tool. Previous iterations of the offer extended to Model S and X buyers in 2019. The company has used Supercharging access as a flexible incentive to attract buyers without adjusting base prices. The one-year free period provides access to Tesla's charging network across North America. After the promotional period expires, owners revert to standard Supercharging rates. Tesla's Supercharging network remains a key differentiator for the automaker. By rotating promotional access, the company maintains competitive pricing flexibility while highlighting the infrastructure advantage of its platform. No end date for the current promotion has been announced.
