Teslas have a huge range of functions that you don’t see in other cars like Smart Summon, Sentry Mode, Joe Mode, Tesla Theater and Tesla Arcade. However, Tesla Karaoke is in a league of its own!
Released in late 2019 with a big software upgrade with lots of new features ( in version 10), Tesla Car-aoke or Caraoke enables Tesla owners to sing Karaoke right inside your Tesla. That is why Elon Musk always says Tesla vehicles are the most fun a car you can have in a car!
