Tesla’s mobile connector bundle can now be bought for $400 in Tesla Store

Earlier this week Drive Tesla was first to report on a subtle, but important change that hinted the Mobile Connector Bundle was no longerb included with new vehicles.

Elon Musk has now confirmed the change on Twitter.

Tesla has officially removed the mobile connector bundle as a standard accessory. Users who want the bundle can now purchase it separately on the Tesla shop for $400.

Elon noted that the decision to remove the bundle as a standard accessory was due to usage statistics being super low.

However, he also confirmed that more plug adaptors would be included with the mobile connector kit that is for sale.

However, some disagree with Tesla’s CEO’s take.

Teslascope noted that their data is far different. They show that 61 per cent of charging sessions were with the mobile connector. In contrast, only 32 per cent of users used the wall charger.

Many of the Twitter responses to Tesla‘s move were not positive. While some may not use the charger, Teslascope’s data shows that most users still use it. Plus, if someone is visiting a family or friend, they get use out of the bundle.

Tesla nor Musk did not confirm if those waiting for a car to be delivered will still have the mobile charger included or not.

We have yet to receive a report from a new owner saying their car didn’t include the bundle, but if yours didn’t let us know in the comments below or reach out to us at tips@driveteslacanada.ca.
