I believe the only thing that comes standard is the j1772 adapter. So no 110v charging if you do not have the mobile connector

Yes, except that Tesla does deliver in the west by truck throughout the quarter. It is only when they've decided that they don't want to put any more cars on trains headed east that they can really go into overdrive for western deliveries. That may be only a week or two right at the end of the quarter when it's impractical to put cars on trains such that they can be sure that those cars will reach their delivery location in time for processing, scheduling and delivery.

I’m pretty sure it comes with a NEMA 5-15 charger. It comes standard and the mobile connector includes the NEMA 14-50 and mobile adapter

So maybe everyone who is reporting that they receives a mobile adapter... really doesnt have the 14-50 adapter but the regular 5-15? I wonder if anyone who took delivery recently with an OD of May onwards can confirm.

Possibly. But everywhere I read stated that the regular wall outlet 120v NEMA 5-15 comes standard on our cars, but the 220v NEMA 14-50 does not. But it only makes sense. Imagine an EV vehicle coming with no charger whatsoever lol. Imagine the outrage

I just messaged someone ive been chatting to who took delivery recently that was a june OD - she got a mobile connector so im just going to see if she can confirm if she has the 14-50 with it or just 5-15

update: she just confirmed she only received the 5-15 adapter.
So technically everyone should have a Level 1 charger, and you could just buy a 14-50 adapter if needed.
If thats the case, i think ill keep my mobile connector kit that i bought with both 14-50 and 5-15 in the car, while i keep the free 5-15 at home to trickle charge, or use the J1772 adapter to borrow my familys L2 charger haha.
I thought that was why they made it orderable in the design studio? After a certain order date it no longer came standard.

Tesla will no longer include mobile connectors with every car
Musk says including the connector is “wasteful.”

Tesla is no longer including the mobile charging connector with new vehicles
Tesla has opted to stop including the 110v/220v mobile charging connector with vehicles.

Over time, the charging kit that came with it evolved. Tesla used to supply a charging cable that included both a NEMA 14-50 (Level 2) connector and a normal outlet connector (Level 1). Later, the manufacturer opted to remove the NEMA 14-50 connector from the bundle, leaving only the NEMA 5-15 adaptor for regular outlets. The Level 2 connector could be purchased separately.
like the image @Cho22 posted. As I said, I reached out to a redditor i been chatting with who was a late june OD and received her M3LR already. Only the 5-15 adapter was in her car, no 14-50.

Yep exactly. It would be terrible business practice for Tesla to simply not include ANY charger with their 50k cars at all.Tesla is no longer including the mobile charging connector with new vehicles

Well I cancelled my mobile connector order 2 days ago and got a message this morning saying it had shipped. So I guess I'll see if it turns up in the end or if I get a refund (hasn't gone through yet) or both. If it does turn up I'll try and keep it until delivery assuming the timing works out and then return it if another connector is provided with my car otherwise at I guess I'll just keep it.

50k? Man, after taxes and everything my M3LR was like 69k LOL.
I equate it to buying a gaming laptop for $2,000 and they didnt give you a charger. Would seem a little silly haha

I was trying to be nice about the pricing Hah but yeah mine comes out to around 63k for LR and that’s with everything standard

No, that's exactly what happened. That's why everyone was pissed in April. The prospect of having no option to charge wasn't a pleasant one.

When I got my model 3 in February I got:
- Mobile Charger
- 5-15 adapter
- J1772 adapter

Well, then I purchased too much when I snagged one off the Tesla store. I should have just purchased the 14-50 adapter, not the entire charger.

i know what you mean but think of it this way - you have one at home and one on the go so you dont have to transfer your cable back and forth.

Yup basically the kit includes all you listed, but teslas should only include the 5-15 moving forward. But we are seeing a lot of people receive the kit with their cars so who knows at this point lol
