“Throughout the journey, Tesla’s rally team was privileged to meet fans from around the country at Superchargers in Worthington, MN, Macedonia, OH, and Newark, DE, among others,” wrote Tesla’s Hamish McKenzie. “These fans brought firm handshakes, warm smiles, hot coffee, and a fierce pride in their vehicles.” He also noted that the Tesla employees that participated in the drive were all “directly involved with the construction, operation, and deployment” of the Supercharger network, which is still expanding. Superchargers, which are free to use for Model S owners, are situated in more than 85 locations worldwide, with many more due to come online in the next couple of years. Aside from not costing users a cent, Superchargers are also faster than regular charging: they replenish half a charge in as little as 20 minutes. Father-daughter combination John and Jill Glenney were quick to claim the mantle of "first electric car drive across America using only Superchargers," completing the cross country drive last week as Tesla energized the final stations along the route." - Tesla Blog

After three days of enduring blizzards, a blinding sand storm, freezing
temperatures, and driving rain, the Cross Country Rally came to its
conclusion on a surprisingly mild New York morning. The crew of 15
drivers, many of whom had seldom slept over the past few days, was
treated to the sight of Manhattan's skyscrapers slowly emerging through
the fog as the two Model S sedans crossed the Brooklyn Bridge. The cars
were driven over the finish line by Tesla staffers Sara Eslinger and
Jalpa Patel. Tesla CTO JB Straubel was on board for the final leg from
Newark, Delaware, to New York City, where the team was greeted by CEO
Elon Musk after crossing the finish line.

warm smiles, hot coffee, and a fierce pride in their vehicles. The team
reciprocated by handing out T-shirts and mingling with each crowd. The
Tesla team was comprised of Tesla employees who were directly involved
with the construction, operation, and deployment of the Superchargers – a
rapidly expanding network that is a crucial part of the company’s
mission to accelerate the transition to sustainable transportation.
