Not a Tesla App • • technology
Key Points:
- Tesla’s Model 3 Performance and Model Y Performance trims in the U.S. come with free lifetime Premium Connectivity, a subscription that normally costs $9.99 per month or $99 per year plus taxes.
- The free Premium Connectivity subscription is non-transferable and ends when the vehicle is sold, providing savings of at least $99 annually for the owner.
- Premium Connectivity offers enhanced features requiring cellular data, including music and video streaming, live traffic visuals, satellite maps, weather radar, Sentry Mode live access, and more, beyond the basic free Tesla features.
- Some entertainment features work over Wi-Fi or phone hotspots, but live traffic and satellite views require Premium Connectivity even when tethered to a phone.
- While Tesla has offered free Premium Connectivity as a limited-time perk on other models, the Model 3 and Model Y Performance trims uniquely include it permanently, adding value when comparing Performance and standard trims.
