Tesla has ramped up its Referral Program, introducing new incentives for persuading a friend or family member to purchase one of its electric vehicles.
Tesla's Referral Program has been instrumental in rewarding owners with perks ranging from Supercharging credits to substantial prizes like a Model Y, simply by referring someone to buy a Tesla using their unique code.
Over the years, Tesla has made several adjustments to the Referral Program, updating terms and introducing fresh rewards. For instance, in late 2023, it started emphasizing referral credits for test drives, aiming to encourage more people to experience Tesla vehicles firsthand. This approach likely contributed to increased test drives and ultimately boosted sales.
Recently, Tesla announced a new referral incentive: a complimentary year of Premium Connectivity and a three-month subscription to Full Self-Driving for individuals using a referral code to purchase a Model S, Model X, or Model Y. This addition to the program was implemented on March 20.
Premium Connectivity provides access to Navigation, Live Traffic Visualization, Sentry Mode, Satellite-View Maps, Video Streaming, Caraoke, Music Streaming, and the Internet Browser. In contrast, the Standard Connectivity package includes Navigation features only.
Tesla emphasizes Premium Connectivity as an essential component for delivering "the most intuitive and engaging ownership experience." It is priced at $9.99 per month plus taxes or can be obtained annually for $99 plus tax.
Full Self-Driving represents Tesla's advanced semi-autonomous driver assistance suite, offering features like Auto Lane Change, Navigate on Autopilot, Autopark (recently renamed to Banish), Smart Summon, and Traffic Light and Stop Sign Control. While not fully autonomous, Tesla describes FSD as capable of "driving itself almost anywhere with minimal driver intervention and continual improvement."
Elon Musk has hinted at significant enhanceme.
