Too Afraid to Ask

Connected services are the online features in an EV that use a data connection. They can include things like live traffic and remote control features, sometimes for a monthly fee.

Technical Definition

Connected services are features that require an internet connection—often via the car’s built-in modem plus a smartphone app. They commonly include live traffic, remote vehicle functions, and other data-driven features that may be gated behind subscriptions.
