AT&T and Audi to Wirelessly Connect all 2016 Model Year Vehicles | AT&T

If you have a mobile share data plan at ATT you will be able to connect your Audi to this data plan. Sweet.

Thank you to 07S6 for the share.

AT&T and Audi to connect all 2016 cars with LTE

AT&T plus LTE would be great to have. Sadly, my 2013 is stuck with T-Mobile and its various network re-branders. The only thing I really use the service for is Google destination searches - 99% of the time I don't even turn on navigation or Google Earth, preferring to use Waze on a dash-mounted iPhone instead.

Someone posted a letter from Audi stating that they'd be refitting 2012 & 2013 6/7 cars starting soon with what is likely the same cellular radio as the 2014 & 2015 models. If that applies to everyone then while you wouldn't have LTE, you could at least switch to AT&T's 3G.

Any word on what a data plan will run from a cost standpoint?

For AT&T? It would be $10 to add it to a Mobile Share plan.

The problem with it is I have absolutely no idea if 1GB per month is a ton or barely enough to get by. How much hot spot use would push you over?

1GB comes to mind.

Seriously though, it's not much if you're using it for more than email or occasional web browsing. That's a couple half-hour TV episodes in HD on Netflix or 7 hours of Spotify at the highest quality.

So if you've already go 4G LTE on your phone, can you just use your phone as a mobile hotspot for your Audi? I'm on Verizon and for $15 a month I can add 2 gigs of data per month.

This is what I do. The 3G is useless except for adding Nav destinations from the MMI app.
