In-Car Radio Receiver Disappears from Tesla's Standard Model

There are no legal obstacles to a car without a traditional radio receiver in the EU.

Next year's cheapest Tesla - the Y Model 3 Standard - will apparently no longer have a built-in radio, writes media expert James Cridland on his blog. Although Teslas have never had AM radio, FM radio is no longer included in the new base model, according to a report from specialist portal MotorTrends. The Model 3 Standard no longer includes terrestrial radio reception. MotorTrends comments: We knew there would be a less powerful radio option - but not that the Standard model would completely remove the terrestrial radio connection. Tesla's US website also no longer lists an FM receiver.
