I presume Europe includes UK.

I presume Europe includes UK.

I predict a riot!
Or at least an orderly queue.

If everybody goes to charge today the news story is going to end up being a negative one ... i.e. queues at Tesla Superchargers

I suggest that if people need to Supercharge they do so as normal and just enjoy that their coffee came "free"!

Seems to exclude the ones open to none Tesla so my local Trafford Centre is not included. Oh well.

Edit - sorry, it is showing as free. I may go and see as only at 30%. Showing as 6 available.

Hey at least it wasn’t in yesterday’s bank holiday! That could have been real chaos

Would have been more environmentally friendly to put 200 miles on everyone's account to be used whenever.

Less newsworthy though. Tesla (and Elon) is the master of free advertising.

That probably explains why I saw pricing at Gretna for £0, I thought it was an error! I don't even need to go there, just happened to be mooching in the app.

Not sure how generating artificial queues at chargers is a big win, but I am not a PR black belt like Tesla Europe.

I am at 100% - unfortunately not driving at all today - the closest SC is around 40 miles away and that is the only trip I have to make just to charge to use the freebie and then climbing up depleting my battery - hmmm - unlucky :-(. But amazing of Tesla to give some freebie - when was the last time I heard of BP giving free petrol/diesel on a day when they made loads of profit? Never heard of that! But still I could see lots of moaners

Something of the showman our Elon (understatement) who, it would seem, shares Mr Barnum's view of publicity .
You gotta love the guy who, unlike Delorean, ( remember him) walks the walk.

Bonus for DPD then who are normally hogging this site with all their electric vans!

 

[djtaylor]

Well I confess that I did just pop to the local SC to help Elon celebrate
I did check first though and figured 9 free out of 12 was ok and it remained like that while I was there.
Bummer that this didn't happen a couple of days ago when I came home at 2% though. Never mind.

Gah. Reading this whilst sitting at my local ChargePoint filling up from 15%.

I'd have nipped another 10 mins down the road to the nearest Supercharger if I'd have read it in time!

 

[M1tch]

And it works! On my second charge today! Thanks

Has the ring of poetic justice.
