Tesla Question / Idea

[-DA3]

I'm 4 weeks into my new M3 - love it so far. (came from a benz AMG) which was very difficult to sell to then get into a M3- anyway had two ideas- if they already exist- please correct me.

1. Ability to prepay for supercharging? (with slight discount for doing so) like anything else would help the seller and buyer. (example- prepay for 1,000 miles get 1,200) or ability to prepay in banks of 5,000.

2. Once FSD comes onboard- the ability to enable a grading score (more fun than anything) meaning if you drove vs. the FSD M3 the system would show # of rolling stops, no turn signals etc. on the journey.

Just a couple of ideas while on EAP --

Supercharging is so cheap I’m not sure there is any value for a consumer to prepay in exchange for a small discount. Remember you’re only supercharging enough to get yourself home or to the next location. Not filling it up like a gas tank.

It doesn't matter how little is a gain, people would do anything to get a discount. I remember seeing people lining up at gas stations for up to an hour to save a few bucks the eve of an increase of gas.

I'm not sure that any interest they could make on having people prepay for supercharging would offset the additional accounting and corporate infrastructure required to facilitate it. Especially, as has been said, with it already so cheap.
