Tesla and Uber have launched an in-car integration of ridesharing navigation directly into its Tesla vehicles for Uber drivers.

There are a lot of Uber drivers who drive Tesla vehicles.

Many have been deployed in Uber's fleet through Hertz's deal to buy 100,000 Tesla vehicles, and Uber and Tesla worked together to offer drivers discounts.

In some markets, they have become very popular with Uber drivers, who take advantage of subsidies and reduce their fuel costs. In Montreal, every other time I order an Uber, the driver shows up in a Tesla vehicle.

They always have their phones to manage their Uber Driver app and when they get a trip, sometimes they will enter the destination in the Tesla navigation system, but most of the time, they simply follow the navigation on their phones either through the Uber app or through a third-party app.

Now, Uber has announced that Tesla drivers using its rideshare app can now send trip navigation automatically to their vehicles:

Enjoy bigger and bolder navigation. Once you accept a trip request on your phone, pickup and dropoff info will be sent to your Tesla screen automatically.
