Hi, we are looking to buy a model X (Netherlands, Amsterdam)
Can someone please explain what a referral code is and how I can use it?
Supercharging is free right? So why do we need a referral code for charging?
Thanks for helping out a new member!
A referral code is a what all current owners of Model S and Model X cars get to refer prospective buyer to Tesla. The benefit for the current owners is that they get rewards according to the
referral program and for the new owners in that they get a discount (if ordering before October 31st) and access to free supercharging for as long as they are the owners of the vehicle. If buying without a referral, the discount does not apply and supercharging is included up to 400 kWh per year, after that a fee applies.
If you are looking for referral codes, I suggest you use the referral code of a helpful friendly colleague or aquaintance that already owns a Tesla and can explain you all things Tesla as there are usually a bunch of things that can be a bit new and unfamiliar to the fresh Tesla owner. That friend or colleague will have an incentive to be real helpful if you use their referral code.
If you do not know someone who can be your go-to person for all things Tesla and is just looking for a referral code, well then feel free to use
My tesla referral link. I would greatly appreciated it and help you with any questions you may have, but seeing as i live in Norway and you in Holland, you probably would be better off with finding that colleague/friend who owns a Tesla.
To use a referral, click on someone's referral link and start the order process from there, or inform the sales person in the Tesla store that you have a referral code (which is the name and numbers at the end of the referral links) and they will enter it for you.
Good luck with your purchase, you will get an awesome car!
