Prior to this announcement, Chevrolet had been offering a 4GB data plan for which it charged $20 a month, as well as a 10GB data plan that cost $40 per month. Neither of those deals be offered after the new unlimited data plan goes into effect on March 3rd. However, consumers can still opt for the 1GB plan that costs $10 a month, if for some reason they do not want unlimited data.

Chevrolet owners used 200% more LTE data last year than it did in 2015. In addition, General Motors says that Chevy drivers and passengers streamed more than 17 million hours of video last year alone. In terms of data used, the busiest Chevy models were the Silverado, Suburban, Tahoe, and Traverse.

“We have contractors bidding jobs in their Silverados, families streaming movies in their Suburbans and Malibus and everyone tapping into the cloud for music,” said Alan Batey, president of GM North America and global head of Chevrolet. “With the most affordable unlimited 4G LTE data plan in the auto industry, the widest availability of Apple CarPlay and Android Auto and new connected services like OnStar AtYourService, our momentum can only grow.”

Chevrolet has more sold more than 3.1 million OnStar 4G LTE-connected automobiles in the last three years.
