Tesla is integrating xAI’s Grok AI assistant into its vehicles through the 2026.26 over-the-air software update, enabling drivers to control Spotify playback, phone calls, climate settings, and the glovebox using natural voice commands. Only AMD-equipped Teslas running software version 2025.26 or newer qualify, requiring Premium Connectivity or a solid Wi-Fi connection. The rollout, which began in the US, is expanding to Canada, Australia, Europe, and Asia, with a late July 2026 target for all European nations. This integration also serves as a revenue driver for Tesla, as access to Grok’s full features is tied to the Premium Connectivity subscription.
