Based on the official Tesla app, a number of entries are allowed and one winner will probably be chosen at random on October 6. Beforehand, the Austin-based EV producer organized an in-app raffle for the upcoming Cybertruck, the place customers might spend 500 credit to get an opportunity to win a free pickup, however a concrete date for when the lottery would choose a winner was by no means provided.

One other method of getting into the sweepstake is to refer a buddy that buys a brand new Tesla and takes supply of it by September 30.

Tesla customers can get credit by shopping for automobiles or equipment, or by providing their referral codes to individuals who purchase a brand new EV.
