The latest software update for Tesla electric vehicles in China has incorporated an in-car karaoke system for enhanced entertainment. A new microphone, called the TeslaMic is now on sale by Tesla for its infotainment system, and it is only available in China currently. The TeslaMic is priced at $188 and can be purchased via the Tesla Store. The software update coincided with the Chinese New Year and it has added a karaoke platform, Leishi KTV to the infotainment system in electric vehicles.

The TeslaMic, in combination with the Leishi KTV karaoke system, opens a new vista in the infotainment content and features available to Tesla EV owners. It is unclear at this time how the TeslaMic could be purchased or whether it will berth in other regions outside China. The microphone automatically pairs with the in-car infotainment system and comes in a pair, with the possibility of turning the car’s infotainment system into a mobile public address unit.

The Leishi KTV adaptation by Tesla shows the company is building upon its Caraoke feature introduced in 2019 which had a more restrictive list of tracks to draw from. A YouTube video is out, possibly drawn from an earlier Weibo post, that shows the TeslaMic and Leishi KTV karaoke system is displayed in action. There is no official statement yet from Tesla on the availability of the TeslaMic in other regions, although Tesla vehicles can use the Carpool Karaoke microphone when connected to the car’s audio system with limited functionality.
