Elon Musk recently announced that SpaceX plans to provide Starlink satellite cellular service in the U.S. in a new partnership with T-Mobile. The move has left several wondering if Tesla’s vehicles could also receive the satellite
While Musk didn’t provide any further details on when or how the Starlink connection will take place, the move will also depend on Starlink’s next generation of satellites being launched into orbit. Still, at the rate SpaceX launches satellites, it’s not a far cry to think the service could become available inMusk did say that Starlink’s cellular coverage will be able to offer 2–4 Mbps, which will be sufficient for some activities in a Tesla.
Tesla scaled back its connectivity plans in the past many years. In June 2018, Tesla stopped including Premium Connectivity with purchase of its cars. Cars purchased before July 20, 2022 came with the Standard Connectivity package, including maps and navigation. Both offerings last the life of the cars purchased.
Now Tesla offers the upgrade Premium Connectivity for just $9.99 per month, or for $99 per year. Tesla also offers Standard Connectivity with the purchase of vehicles, but with a time limit of just eight years instead of the car’s life. According to Tesla, all new and certified used cars purchased from Tesla “will have Standard Connectivity for the remainder of the eight years from the first day your vehicle was delivered as new by Tesla, or the first day it is put into service , whichever comes first.”Featured image: Tesla’s Model Y, X, 3 and S vehicles parked in front of a cell tower.
