What the code gets you in United Kingdom
The UK figure is the one most often reported wrongly, because Britain does not simply inherit the continental European number. UK sources consistently describe the new Model 3 and Model Y benefit as 650 free Supercharging miles rather than the ~2,000 km Tesla moved to across mainland Europe in April 2026 β 650 miles is about 1,046 km, so the two are not the same reward wearing different units. Model S and Model X buyers are described as receiving Β£500 off instead. Treat both as the reported UK position and confirm what your own order page shows before you pay.
Model S / Model X: Model S and Model X buyers are reported to receive Β£500 off instead of Supercharging miles.
What that reward is actually worth in United Kingdom
650 miles is about 1,046 km, so at 14β18 kWh/100 km you are being given roughly 145β190 kWh of charging. The spread in UK Supercharger pricing then does the rest of the work: at an off-peak membership rate near 22p/kWh that is about Β£32βΒ£42, while at a 60p peak rate the same credit is worth about Β£87βΒ£113. The reward is identical; what changes its value is when and how you charge.

United Kingdom EV incentives that stack with the code
None of the schemes below affect referral eligibility, or vice versa. Statuses are dated because several change mid-year.
| Scheme | Amount and how it works |
|---|---|
| Electric Car Grant Live Β· checked August 31, 2026 |
Β£3,750 or Β£1,500, two tiers Introduced in July 2025 and still the live scheme. It is banded: Β£3,750 for vehicles from manufacturers meeting science-based emissions targets and Β£1,500 for other qualifying EVs. It comes off the vehicle price before a lease is calculated rather than arriving as a cheque, so on a finance deal it shows up as a lower monthly payment. Any page telling you the UK has no purchase grant is describing the pre-July-2025 world. Verify at GOV.UK |
| Benefit-in-Kind (company cars) Live Β· checked August 31, 2026 |
4% in 2026/27 Still the largest UK EV saving for anyone who can take a car through work. Fully electric company cars are taxed at 4% BiK in 2026/27, rising in steps toward 9% by 2029/30, against 25β37% for petrol and diesel. Because the rate is scheduled to climb, the year you take delivery is locked into the calculation β this is the one incentive where waiting genuinely costs money. Verify at GOV.UK β company car tax |
| Vehicle Excise Duty Live Β· checked August 31, 2026 |
EVs now pay EVs are no longer VED-exempt, and cars above the expensive-car threshold attract the additional rate for several years β a running cost that referral-focused pages almost never mention. Verify at GOV.UK β vehicle tax rates |
Ordering in United Kingdom: the thing that actually catches people out
The UK benefit attaches when you open the referral link before configuring β there is no code box to revisit later, and it cannot be applied retrospectively once the order is placed. Check the Supercharging credit appears in the app after delivery rather than at order time; it is credited on handover, not on order.
