Tesla offers free supercharging to Model S and X buyers
If you've been thinking about buying a new Tesla, now might be a good time to make a move.
Tesla is offering prospective buyers some extra incentive: free supercharging when you buy a new Model X or Model S. New purchases of the two cars will come with"free unlimited" supercharging, Tesla announced in a tweet.

The company didn't post further details on the offer, but a spokesperson confirmed there is currently no set timeframe on the deal.
For Tesla, the free supercharging is likely meant to draw more customers to its older, higher-priced cars rather than the more affordable Model 3. On a recent earnings call, Tesla CEO Elon Musk acknowledged that the Model 3 is likely cannibalizing sales of the older Model X and Model S. And analysts have expressed concerns over slowing interest in the older models. Even Musk noted that demand for the vehicles "should be higher."
Though free supercharging is obviously an attractive benefit to a would-be Tesla-buyer, there's one group that appears to be unhappy with the news: people who have recently purchased a new Model S or Model X and aren't eligible for the offer. Replies to Tesla's tweet were filled with people asking Tesla, and its CEO, to consider making other new buyers eligible for the perk.
They are likely out of luck. Tesla confirmed that free supercharging is only available to new buyers and those who have recently made a purchase are ineligible.
