Overview
- The in-house program is live at Tesla stores in San Diego and Costa Mesa with rentals running three to seven days and unlimited mileage.
- Daily rates start at $60 and vary by model, with each rental including free Supercharging and access to Full Self-Driving (Supervised).
- Renters who place an order within seven days can receive a purchase credit of up to $250, positioning the offer as an extended test drive.
- Vehicles must remain in the state where rented, and Tesla says the pilot is slated to roll out to additional U.S. locations before year-end.
- Tesla is turning to direct rentals as U.S. EV demand softens following the end of the $7,500 federal tax credit and as inventory builds at stores.
