Android, iOS, Windows, and Mac OS are just a few of the operating systems that provide access to various apps and services. However, Elon Musk-owned Tesla does not use any of the ecosystems associated with these operating systems such as Android Auto and Apple CarPlay.
But that doesn't seem to be a problem for Tesla's operating system, which already offers drivers access to almost all of the major apps and services that other operating systems offer.
Unfortunately, there were two services that were missing from Teslas until recently, Amazon Music and YouTube Music. But that's about to change as the Not a Tesla (via Android Authority) reports that both music streaming services are coming to Tesla's electric vehicles.

Apparently, several Tesla models are getting a new update, which adds support for Amazon Music and YouTube Music, among other things. Specifically, the Tesla S, Tesla 3, Tesla X, and Tesla Y are eligible for this update, which is expected to be released very soon.
Although Tesla drivers could access YouTube Music in their cars by connecting phones via Bluetooth, the experience is limited because it misses out on many features that are otherwise available in the native app.
Most importantly, YouTube Music allows users to create and listen to their own playlists without having to pay a subscription like other music streaming services. This means Tesla drivers will save a lot of money if they already subscribe to a different music streaming service (i.e. Spotify).
The bad news is that we have no idea when the new update will arrive, but we suspect it won't be long after was leaked .

YouTube Music, which will soon be available in Tesla models, is a music streaming platform that offers users the ability to discover, listen to and enjoy a variety of music from around the world. The service includes an extensive archive of songs and albums, customized playlists, and recommendations based on users’ personal preferences and listening history. With both free and paid access for additional features such as offline listening and ad-free music, YouTube Music has become a popular tool for music lovers worldwide.
