Elon Musk’s Tesla hopes to win back customers by offering free charging if you buy a $100,000 Cybertruck

• Tesla is offering free Supercharging to buyers of a $100,000 Cybertruck. The incentive is the latest attempt to increase sales, which have stagnated in recent years. The offer, however, has conditions.

Elon Musk and Tesla are hoping the lure of free fuel will lure people back to the Cybertruck.

The automaker is offering free supercharging to some buyers as an incentive. That could save some customers up to $50 per charge.

Free Supercharging is the latest attempt by the company to goose sales, which have been stagnating lately. Discounts on new and used vehicles were offered earlier this year and leasing prices have also been cut.

4. I think he should offer a coal rolling add-on

Maybe this will get his core audience to commit, along with a year's supply of low-grade steroids or something.

5. There's a whole YouTube thread about how lousy the cybertruck is-- poorly designed, poorly built

Some mentioned that they paid $100K for a new "truck", and it came DIRTY and with only 10% power.
I just bought a cheap used car, and before they handed it over, they detailed it and filled the tank. But of course, that was just Nissan, not the majestic Tesla which obviously does not need to please the customer.

One pointed out that Musk came into Tesla AFTER the really prized e-cars were designed and built. The CyberFruck is the only vehicle that was completely Musk's vision... and it's a mess, not surprising!

6. Don't buy shit from a Nazi.

that is all there is to it.

That works out to 5.5 years of daily charges for your $100,000 at $50 per charge.
Assumming he will hold up his end of the bargain.
