Tesla Model 3 Premium & Performance: Free Supercharging for a Year + Insane Deals Explained
Hey everyone, DennisCW here! If you're in the market for a Tesla, I've got some game-changing news straight from the latest offers. Tesla is rolling out free supercharging for a full year on specific Model 3 trims: the Premium and Performance versions. And trust me, when you stack this with the current financing and lease deals, it makes the Model 3 Performance one of the best buys out there right now.
The Deal Breakdown
- Eligible Trims: Model 3 Premium and Performance.
- Free Supercharging: 1 year of unlimited Supercharging – no catches!
- Bonus Perks on Performance: Free exterior and interior color upgrades.
Tesla even sent out an email blasting "Charge and pay nothing!" This is huge if you're in high-gas-price areas like California, where you could save $200–$400/month on charging alone compared to a gas guzzler.
Financing & Lease Madness
Stack this with:
- 0.99% financing – Lock it in and drive away smiling.
- Lease Options:
- Premium: As low as $349/month.
- Performance: As low as $599/month.
Note: The ultra-low $299/month lease doesn't qualify for free Supercharging, but the others do. Lease for 2–3 years, pocket those gas savings, and you're way ahead.
Don't forget: Use my Tesla referral code (link in the description on my video or check my site) to score up to 3 months of Full Self-Driving (FSD) on top!
Why Is Tesla Doing This?
My hunch? Changes are coming to the Model 3. Could be minor tweaks or a refresh – we don't know yet (saving that for another video). Tesla pulls these incentives when they want to clear inventory or ramp up demand, especially end-of-quarter. A full year of free Supercharging beats the usual 3–6 months we've seen before.

Cool New Feature: Phone-Linked Profiles
Shoutout to Robert Rosenfeld for spotting this: You can now link your Tesla profile to your phone in the settings. No more random profile switches messing with your seats, mirrors, or AC. Super secure – I'll test it soon. Might be on the Spring Update.
Must-Have Tesla Accessories (Top 3)
Accessories make your Tesla perfect. My buckets:
- Phone Mounts

Floor Mats: Good, Better, Best
