Yet another manufacturer supporting Dolby Atmos.

Patiently waiting for Atmos in my Tesla ever since this incorrect article couple years back. All Model 3's (and presumably others) have overhead speakers, it would be perfect.

I went to test drive an Optic and a lyric, and I could not get the dealer to demonstrate it.
I test drove a Lucid and Atmos was on Tidal, and only a few tracks were in Atmos. I tried many tracks that I know were released in Atmos.
As most cars have an android computer, do you need a Tidal subscription for Atmos?
Anyone has experience with any of the cars?

Interesting. Yes, for Tidal you would definitely need to have a paid subscription to demo Atmos and I could easily see how this could get overlooked and/or a dealership wouldn't care enough to do that. Assuming the dealer would let you fool with the app it would be possible (in theory) to use a personal account to login for demo purposes and then reset it. But that would be a lot of fooling around to do all that.

Based on past history I suspect iOS Carplay has no mechanism to send Atmos but possibly Android Auto might? I'm sure it's been discussed somewhere.
