Tesla Is About To Cut Off Its Free Supercharger Access Deal
If you have any plans to buy a Tesla you’d better hurry up, because the company is cutting off the current free electricity deal at the start of next year.
It had already been confirmed that Model 3 owners wouldn’t get the same free power deal, but now Elon Musk has announced that as of 1 January 2017, all new customers will have to pay a “small fee” to use the supercharger network.
How much the fee will be is yet to be confirmed and may vary from country to country. Tesla has said, though, that the price will be dependent on the wider cost of electricity at the time, leaving it wide open to the fluctuations of supply and demand.
Teslas ordered by the end of December will still qualify for the old deal, except the Model 3, but only for cars delivered by April.
Autocar is speculating that the move could be tied in to Tesla’s newly-released solar roof tiles for houses, suggesting that Musk may be trying to encourage new Tesla buyers to adopt solar charging. With hundreds of thousands of deposits placed for Model 3s, that might be good business sense.
In other Tesla news, the ridiculously fast Model S P100D is about to get even faster…

Well I bet this was a shock to some people.
Lol one already below your comment XD
If you can afford a Tesla, you can afford a charge. It only cost like 4 or 5$ to charge up a “full tank”.
WHAT??? I THOUGHT ELON MUSK SAID THAT THIS WILL BE FREE FOREVER
And now he changed his mind.
Such is life.
Well, that’s a Shock!
It’s a bit annoying that they make you pay for it, after all free electricity was a benefit of electric cars
You might be too young to know this, but there’s this thing called a power bill.
You still spend money on electricity.
Fake ass ‘supercharger’
