Stream over 100 million songs and 30,000 playlists ad-free. Listen to your entire library, discover new music, and tune into live radio stations. To access Apple Music, tap the Apple Music icon in the Application Launcher, scan the QR code with your mobile device, and login with your Apple ID.

Note: A Premium Connectivity subscription is required to stream Apple Music over a cellular connection.

There were hints that ‌Apple Music‌ support was imminent when a Tesla exhibit at the Petersen Automotive Museum in Los Angeles featured a vehicle with an ‌Apple Music‌ app installed.


‌Apple Music‌ integration has been a feature long desired by Tesla owners, and ‌Apple Music‌ subscribers who want access can install the latest software to get it.

The only thing premium inside a Tesla is the sense of entitlement of the driver. Everything else eventually rattles like a tin can full of coins.
Can confirmed. Drove one for a week. Not mine thank goodness.

My budget French turd is better put together.

Also I had Apple Music on it for at least 5 years already 🤣

Edit: offended 6 Tesla owners so far :)

Wow! One step forward. Native Apple’s CarPlay to Tesla’s vehicle next? I think I remember asking about this request a month ago. Still waiting... 🤨

this means lossless isn't an option
Honestly I don't see how lossless would be useful here. They have good audio hardware, but we're still talking about a car with a lot of ambiant noises.
