One reason would be that they include one with every vehicle, and they're at a run rate of 2 million cars per year, and there are supply shortages.If they are such low use and just collect dust because nobody wants/needs them, why are they seemingly always out of stock on the website?
This is the very point of the decision. They don't have enough to sell extras on the website, and they know things we don't. They're likely already aware that they're going to run out of them for newly built vehicles at some point in the near future.

I actually find it rather frustrating that there are so many people here who don't understand this simple concept.
Fair enough. If they completely run out of mobile connectors though, would it be better to give every buyer an IOU?
Just pm address! Figured I could help you clear up some space in your garage.So many cry babies
I have 3 mobile connector bags just sitting in my garage that have never been used.

You SHOULD get one if it stated that at time of order. No argument from me on that.Which ones are advertising and supportive of Tesla no longer including the mobile connector, saying I shouldn't get the one that was clearly stated to be included when I place my order over 8 months ago because they don't use theirs?
People should look for rebates with their power companies. Mine offers up to 500 for a wall charger but NOT a Tesla one.I bet lot of people leave them in the car for emergencies. This would look like low usage but would not necessarily translate to people not needing/wanting them. They're jumping to conclusions as to why usage is low.
They're saying people don't need them because they use Wall Connector instead. So reduce the cost of that by the cost of Mobile Connector.
"Specifications and accessories are subject to change" is always a standard phrase in any new vehicle contract. When people who ordered last year only got half a steering wheel, the mileage figures go up or down, passenger seat lumbar support no longer available, tires and wheels change,You SHOULD get one if it stated that at time of order. No argument from me on that.
That's interesting. Even though Teslas are the majority today I guess it makes sense to subsidize only standards-based chargers. Part of the problem with proprietary solutions I suppose.People should look for rebates with their power companies. Mine offers up to 500 for a wall charger but NOT a Tesla one.
This. The idea of the change being made based on parts availability makes sense but that's not their stated reason. Are we supposed to second guess the reason? Why would they take this PR hit if the real reason is more palatable?I feel like this is what Tesla/Elon SHOULD have done instead of this whole trying to be slick, removing verbiage from the website, screwing over current orders, vague responses on twitter without further clarification.
Yes. And THIS is an example of why Tesla needs a PR person to handle corporate comms. Not Elon. He’s HORRIBLE at communications.I feel like this is what Tesla/Elon SHOULD have done instead of this whole trying to be slick, removing verbiage from the website, screwing over current orders, vague responses on twitter without further clarification.
Hey all, due to supply shortages we are having trouble making enough mobile connectors to supply one with every new vehicle. Because of this, all new vehicle orders moving forward will not have the mobile connector included as standard. There will be an option during vehicle configuration to add the mobile connector for $200 should you want one. Existing orders not delivered yet will still have the mobile connector included, but may experience a delay in delivery due to the shortage. You may choose to give up the mobile connector for a $200 credit and may receive your vehicle sooner.
I don’t think anyone would be up in arms if that was what happened. But instead we have this giant mess.
