Will Tesla vehicles one day offer built-in internet access to SpaceX’s Starlink? A new patent suggests the automaker is working on a satellite integration for its EVs.
The company has submitted a patent application in the US for an outer panel car roof “that incorporates radio frequency (RF) transparent materials to enable integration of overhead electrical modules and components.”
It adds: “In some examples, this assembly enables the integration of overhead electrical modules and components, including antennae, directly into the roof structure, facilitating clear communication with external devices and satellites.”
