How to Get Spotify on Tesla in Two Ways

Part 1. How to Play Spotify on Tesla with Premium Account

Previously, Tesla owners could only play Spotify in the car via Bluetooth from their phones. Whenever you want to switch songs or search for new music, you need to pick up your phone. This can be very distracting on the road. But now, thanks to the Spotify Tesla integration, Tesla owners can easily play Spotify directly from their Tesla.

Make sure the software in your car has been updated to version 10.0. If your Tesla is connected to WIFI, it should automatically receive the update. And, you'll need to have a Spotify Premium account to use Spotify.

How to Log into Spotify on Tesla for Streaming:

Step 1. On your Tesla touchscreen, tap on the second "Music" icon from the bottom row, and then tap on "Spotify".

Step 2. Log in with your Spotify Premium account or a Tesla Spotify Premium account that comes with Tesla's Premium connectivity pack.

Step 3. Once the setup is done, you can use the voice commands to play whatever Spotify music you like while you are driving.

(Note: If you choose the Tesla account, then the car will sign in with its own Spotify premium account. This allows you to stream any song without ads or interruptions. Once you've logged in, you'll see that the main screen of the Spotify app has five folders, Songs, Albums, Artists, Stations, and Playlists.

If you sign in with your own Spotify Premium account, you'll see the exact same interface as before. The only difference is that all your library folders contain songs, playlists, and artists that you've added to your personal Spotify account over the years. A big advantage is that you can sync your Spotify playlists on your phone, tablet or laptop with your car. The rest of the features are the same.)
