What they did
The person had been trying Grok inside their Tesla for several weeks and chose the car interface instead of their phone. With FSD handling the drive, they had already linked Starbucks, then spoke the order to Grok. Before sending it, the assistant read back the drink and the price so they could check it.
How it went
The purchase went through without hands on the screen. People in the thread pointed out the displayed charge was $7.30. The poster said this kind of ordering was restricted to paid Grok plans at the time.
Tips
Have the assistant repeat the item, pickup details, and total before it submits anything. Be aware that access may depend on which Grok subscription you have.

Try it yourself with Grok Bot

Act as my voice ordering helper inside [car/vehicle app]. I’m already signed in to [merchant] and want to buy [item] from the branch closest to [route/destination].

First, ask for the full order details: size, custom options, and anything else needed. Then read the complete order back to me, including the pickup place and the total cost. Stop and wait until I clearly say “yes” before you place the order.

If I say no or ask for changes, revise the order and confirm it again. Do not complete payment, submission, or checkout until I approve.

Fill in the [brackets]. Agents can make mistakes, so review anything before it is sent, paid or deleted.
