The literal 5G race

, the new 2022 BMW iX and i4 models now work with the company’s 5G network, essentially allowing owners to use their cars as a gigantic Wi-Fi hotspot.

Adding a BMW to your T-Mobile plan will tack on $20 a month and will allow your car to get unlimited data and voice calls — even if you don’t happen to have a phone with you.

According to T-Mobile, you’ll be able to connect up to 10 devices at a time to your car at a time. And while $20 a month to use your car as a hotspot isn’t exactly cheap, it’s in some ways cheaper than actually getting a dedicated 5G hotspot from T-Mobile. For a standalone 5G hotspot, T-Mobile charges $336 for the upfront cost of the device, plus $50 per month for 100GB of data — compared to a BWM, which offers unlimited 5G data for just $20 a month.

T-Mobile and BMW are by no means the only carriers and car companies looking to bring together 5G and cars, either: Audi is teaming up with Verizon to add support in 2024, as are GM and AT&T. Which means that we’ll almost certainly be seeing a whole lot more 5G vehicle announcements in the coming months, too.
