Have you ever wondered how the Tesla Grok App will look in the cockpit? The latest firmware builds contain a fully functional version of the Grok conversational assistant – only one server switch is missing for activation. In this article, you'll get an exclusive look at the user interface, system requirements, and the most exciting features that could soon revolutionize your driving experience.
System Requirements for Grok
To run the Tesla Grok App in your vehicle, you need:
-
An infotainment system with a Ryzen processor (Intel Atom models are not supported)
-
Premium Connectivity or a stable WiFi connection
-
A Grok account (free or premium, details still unclear)
The underlying autopilot hardware level does not matter, as AI processing is done server-side.
First Impressions of the User Interface
The Grok App in the Tesla appears surprisingly modern and dark-colored, even if your vehicle is set to light mode. The core components:
Voice and Sound Selection
-
Microphone Button for activation
-
Dropdown menus for voice and assistant type
-
Available voices: Ara (cheerful, female), Rex (calm, male), Gork (casual, male)
Settings & Modes
-
NSFW Mode (swear words, adult topics) toggleable
-
Kids Mode for child-friendly responses
-
Access via a dedicated Grok App icon or through the car-assist module
How to Interact with Grok
Grok replaces the currently static voice control with real conversation:
-
Press the microphone button (previous voice control button).
-
Speak questions or commands in natural language.
-
Press again to end the conversation.
Later a wake word could be added to activate Grok hands-free.
Future Features and Outlook
Tesla plans to use Grok not only for infotainment requests but to integrate the system into vehicle control in the long term. Additionally, the multilingual support (English, Chinese & co.) promises global usability.
Grok could go live with the next major update (v2025.24) - most likely in the coming weeks.
Conclusion
The Tesla Grok App is about to be activated and promises to significantly simplify your driving experience. With natural language, individual voice selection, and child-friendly modes, Grok could soon change the way you operate your Tesla cockpit.
