Tesla offers 1 year of free Supercharging, claims ~40% premium for non-Tesla EVs

Tesla is offering one year of free Supercharging to new North American customers who purchase a Model 3 Premium or Performance trim. The company also claims non-Tesla EV owners pay roughly a 40% premium to use the network, though data suggests the actual surcharge is closer to 30-35%. For Tesla owners, this means a new purchasing incentive is available, while the pricing gap reinforces the financial benefit of sticking with Tesla for Supercharger access.
