History/Overview
In 2016, the Tesla Model X mid-size crossover became the brand’s second model in Canada, following up on the Model S sedan and bolstering Tesla’s reputation for high-performance battery electric vehicles. The Model X has been updated here and there since its launch, but its basics have remained the same, including the falcon wing rear doors that remain its signature design cue.
What’s New/Key Changes From Last Year
For 2022, Tesla has dropped the “Long Range” label from the base configuration so that it’s now simply called Model X.
Available Trims
Tesla offers the Model X in base and Plaid variants. The base package has dual motors (front and rear) that provide AWD traction, while Plaid adds a third motor that bumps up power output by about 50 per cent. You can configure a Model X with five seats in two rows, or six or seven seats in three rows.
Standard Features
The Model X comes fitted with 20-inch wheels, a panoramic windshield and glass roof, a 17-inch touchscreen, digital gauge cluster, an 8.0-inch rear-seat infotainment display, three-zone A/C, and a 22-speaker sound system. Every seat is heated, the front seats have ventilation, and you also get auto open/close front doors, a power tailgate, auto-dimming/power-folding side mirrors, phone-as-a-key technology, a garage door remote, and navigation.
Key Options
A premium package brings live traffic data, satellite map views, video/music streaming, and an internet browser. You can also add Tesla’s Autopilot driver assist suite.
Fuel Economy
Tesla’s energy consumption estimates start at 2.2/2.4 Le/100 km (city/highway) for the base Model X, and 2.3/2.5 Le/100 km for the Plaid powertrain.
Competition
The Model X’s competitors include the Audi E-Tron, BMW iX, Cadillac Lyriq, Genesis GV60, and the Rivian R1S.
