Volkswagen's improved in-car AI assistant, IDA, will gain cloud-based responses via ChatGPT and other models, enhancing driver interaction with vehicles by September 6th.
Drivers in models supporting the AI feature will need a subscription to VW's Plus Speech with AI service to access ChatGPT features and other functionalities.
The AI integration will roll out to numerous 2025 models, with free trials for some but requiring subscriptions for others, indicating tiered access for users.
While IDA can handle simple requests locally, complex ones such as restaurant suggestions will go to the cloud, showing a blend of on-device and cloud processing.
