AUDIBLE AND AMAZON MUSIC BUT ALSO APPLE MUSIC ON TESLA CARS

According to rumors, Tesla is working to add several new media sources, including Amazon Music, Audible, also owned by Amazon, and Apple Music.

Tesla drivers will therefore be able to link their music streaming accounts with those services to their cars and use the services through the car's interface instead of from their Bluetooth-connected phones, which of course is already an option.

NO MORE JUST SPOTIFY

Tesla first announced support for other music streaming services, including Tidal, during this year's Battery Day event.

In the latest software update 2020.48.26, there also appear to be options for Apple Music‌ and Amazon Music.

APPLE MUSIC ONLY ON PORSCHE SO FAR

So far, the only automaker to have directly integrated Apple Music into its system has been Porsche for its all-electric Taycan model.

MEANWHILE APPLE WORKS ON ELECTRIC CAR IN COMPETITION AT TESLA

But Apple and Tesla aren't just talking about integration. The Cupertino giant is working on its electric car by 2024. The car will be equipped with a Cupertino battery. This was reported two weeks ago by Reuters citing some sources, according to which the design of the battery that Apple is working on would reduce its cost and extend its duration in terms of kilometers.

In the wake of rumors about Apple's electric car , Tesla CEO Elon Musk said. The carmaker's number one pointed out on Twitter that a "single cell" battery is "electrochemically impossible". Musk also said that "during the darkest days" of Model 3 production, he contacted Apple CEO Tim Cook to discuss the possibility of Apple acquiring Tesla for a fraction of its current value, but Cook apparently declined the meeting. .
