Tesla (TSLA) - Get Report  will begin charging new-car buyers a small free to use its Supercharger network.  According to a press release, owners who buy a new Tesla car after the first of the year will get free charging for the first 1,000 miles, but will then be charged a small fee to Supercharge.  Tesla said owners will pay a small fee that will "cost less than the price of filling up a comparable gas car."

TheStreet's Jim Cramer says it's great Tesla is always in motion and doing a lot of things, but the company is too promotional for him.
