At a recent exhibit for Tesla at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles, someone on Twitter spotted a Model S vehicle running an unreleased software version that had ‌Apple Music‌ installed. According to the images shared, users will be able to scan a QR code on their phone to log into ‌Apple Music‌ and use the app. ‌Apple Music‌ has been teased to be coming to Tesla vehicles in the past only for it not to happen.


‌Apple Music‌ integration in Tesla vehicles has been a long-standing request for Tesla vehicle owners. It's not clear when the update with ‌Apple Music‌ integration will roll out, but Not A Tesla App speculates it could as part of Tesla's annual holiday update due for release next month.

Does it not have CarPlay? I just googled it and it seems like not, but that can't be true? I would not buy a car without it today, and absolutely not a car with a Tesla price tag.

Awesome

I really want to buy a Tesla someday

I’m glad that Tesla finally added Apple Music to their cars

I really hope that Tesla adds CarPlay integration to future vehicles as well

Hopefully we are able to transition to electric vehicles at a much faster rate so that climate change can be mitigated as much as possible

Mr. Schiller had enough courage to deactivate his Twitter account. Tomorrow he won't be driving his Tesla anymore. He want's nothing to do with Elon Musk.

Do you have a Tesla? I do - and besides a native Apple Music app, I really don't miss Apple CarPlay at all
