Tesla is just desperately trying to push Model S sales this quarter. That's probably also why they added back free supercharging to the Model S recently.

- osteele 9y agoModel S supercharging for new vehicles is free only "with referral" - if the owner induces someone else to buy a vehicle too (tracked via a referral code). They didn't add back free supercharging as part of the original purchase. This only strengthens your main point.
- ClassyJacket 9y agoIt seems like it'd be pretty easy to find a referral, however.
- Shank 9y agoI believe most Tesla YouTube videos include referral links as owners get a monetary kickback for the referral. It wouldn't surprise me if enthusiasts that haven't bought a Model S yet are going to go through one of those links as opposed to an outright purchase from the website, especially if the supercharging limits are known.
- erikpukinskis 9y agoYou can only do five referrals per code.
- natch 9y agoI wonder. It depends how they do it. If each owner only has one referral to give, it would be harder.
- glbrew 9y agoYeah. This quarter and next quarter are going to have abysmal sales. I think they are desperately trying to make their earnings reports look better to prevent a sell off.
