Volkswagen is rolling out ChatGPT support to certain vehicles beginning September 6th, giving drivers AI voice chat functionality beyond typical voice controls.
Volkswagen has announced it’s rolling out its improved in-car AI voice assistant, IDA, with both locally processed and cloud-based responses from ChatGPT and other models, starting on September 6th. The first cars getting the feature will be the 2025 Jetta and Jetta GLI and the 82kWh battery version of the 2024 ID.4, with other cars getting it later this year. Drivers in cars that support ChatGPT will need to be subscribed to VW’s Plus Speech with AI service to get it.
Atlas and Atlas Cross Sport models won’t get ChatGPT until 2026, Volkswagen says. The company previously announced its ChatGPT integration plan at CES in January. At the time, it wasn’t clear how it would all work. Volkswagen says that OpenAI’s chatbot along with a “multitude” of other models are provided by automotive chatbot company Cerence, which will take over for IDA when requests are more complex than tweaking your air conditioning settings.
