How to connect your Tesla to Grok

Grok in your Tesla's touchscreen is a voice assistant; it doesn't read your car's battery history or alerts. On grok.com you can add AskMyEV as a custom connector so Grok answers from your actual car data.

Short answerGo to grok.com/connectors, choose New Connector → Custom, paste https://askmyev.com/mcp, name it AskMyEV and connect, then sign in with Tesla. Works on any Grok plan, including Free.

Plan one 15-minute Supercharger stop in Auburn on the way up. You'll arrive home with ~18%.

Frequently asked questions

Can Grok read my Tesla's data?

On grok.com, yes, if you add a connector like AskMyEV. It gives Grok read-only access to your car's status, history and alerts after you sign in with Tesla.

Is this the same as Grok in my Tesla?

No. In-car Grok is a conversational assistant built into the car. AskMyEV connects your car data to Grok on the web, so it can answer questions about battery health, charging and alerts.

Which Grok plans work?

Custom connectors on grok.com work on any plan, including Free, at the time of writing.
