- What’s the news: T-Mobile’s
connected car solution, SyncUP DRIVE, gets new features like
real-time tracking when you need roadside assistance, a gas station
locator, a new dashboard with all you need to know about your car’s
health and more — all at no extra cost.
- Why it matters: “I love car
maintenance!” said nobody, ever. Now, T-Mobile SyncUP DRIVE
customers get even more peace of mind with new features that make
maintaining their car that much easier.
- Who it’s for: Anyone who drives
and wants to make their car smarter.
Talk about street smart. Today, T-Mobile (NASDAQ: TMUS) launched
major upgrades to its all-in-one connected car solution, SyncUP
DRIVE™, with more features and a refreshed app. Now, SyncUP DRIVE
customers can request and track their included Allstate® Roadside
Assistance in real-time through the app just like you would a
rideshare, easily see gas prices and nearby stations, and get an
improved overview of vehicle diagnostics – all without any extra
cost.

“This is just what the Un-carrier does. We listen to customers
and find ways to upgrade your experience without upgrading the
cost!” said John Legere, CEO of T-Mobile. “This free upgrade is
yours, whether you’ve been with us for a while, or are just joining
the SyncUP DRIVE family. We’ve got you – and your car – covered and
connected.”
What is SyncUP DRIVE? It’s a connected car solution compatible
with most vehicles on the road today, and it helps you understand
your car better and keep you and your family safer on the road.
With today’s updates, your SyncUP DRIVE app gets a whole new look,
making it easier than ever to navigate… and it gets a whole new set
of features that help you:
- Track your roadside assistance in
real-time: Request roadside assistance from the new app and
track your tow truck in real-time – just like your favorite
ride-sharing app but for 24/7 assistance for lockouts, jumps, tire
changes and more.
- Be gas-savvy: Save time and
money at the pump – the new app displays gas prices and nearby
locations.
- Monitor your car’s needs at a
glance: New dashboard gives you an overview of your car’s
health with color-coded icons to help you prioritize what needs
your attention first, whether it’s your gas tank, engine or battery
– and gives you other helpful insights.
- Go paperless: Your new virtual
glovebox can store a digital copy of your insurance, registration
and maintenance records so you’ll have it all at the ready, when
you need them.
- Stay better connected: With the
recent hardware update, SyncUP DRIVE is 600 MHz capable, giving you
better coverage than before in rural areas and structures like
parking garages.
SyncUP DRIVE also turns your car into a mobile hotspot with
in-vehicle Wi-Fi, helps you to pinpoint the location of your
vehicles – super helpful for parents of teen drivers or if you
forgot where you parked – and analyzes driving behavior, offering
tips to save on wear and tear. And, because SyncUP DRIVE plugs into
your car’s OBD-II on-board diagnostics port (standard on most cars
built after 1996), you’ll finally have some insight on what’s
happening when that dreaded, vague ‘check engine’ light pops on –
it’s like having a digital mechanic along for the ride. And you can
manage it all through the new and improved app, which will be
rolling out starting today on iOS and Android – available for all
new and existing SyncUP DRIVE customers.
T-Mobile’s SyncUP DRIVE is available in select T-Mobile stores
across the nation. Well-qualified customers can get one today for
just $4/month ($0 down, FRP: $96) – all on T-Mobile’s no-interest
24-month Equipment Installment Plan. Connect your SyncUP DRIVE with
plans starting at $10/month with Autopay. For more information on
