Overview
The 2019 Tesla Model X 75D, though now discontinued, remains a head-turning electric SUV, offering a unique blend of futuristic tech, family practicality, and punchy EV performance. As the entry point to the Model X lineup in its final year, it packed those iconic Falcon Wing doors and standard all-wheel drive. It carved a niche in the premium EV space with its distinctive silhouette and advanced features. While new ones are off the table, you might snag a used 2019 model for around an estimated $17,450, making it an intriguing proposition on the pre-owned market.
What's New for 2019?
For the 2019 model year, the Model X 75D was largely a carry-over as it was being phased out early in the year, making way for revised battery and powertrain configurations in the lineup. While the broader Model X range saw the introduction of an upgraded adaptive suspension system and more efficient motors later in 2019 (dubbed 'Raven' models), these enhancements didn't apply to the 75D. Buyers of a 2019 75D got the established package with the latest Tesla software updates of the time, solidifying its role as the then-accessible Model X.
Design & Exterior
The Model X 75D's design is pure sci-fi made real, especially with those show-stopping Falcon Wing rear doors that make parking lot entrances an event. Its sleek, aerodynamic shape and massive panoramic windshield are unmistakable Tesla hallmarks. It rolls on stylish alloy wheels, typically 20-inchers for this trim, complementing its futuristic vibe with full LED lighting. Dimensionally, it’s a sizeable machine: 198.9 inches long, a broad 78.7 inches wide (mirrors aside), and standing 66.3 inches tall, giving it serious road presence. Subtle '75D' badging differentiated this particular variant.
Interior, Tech & Cargo
Step inside the Model X 75D and you're greeted by Tesla's signature minimalist cabin, dominated by a colossal 17-inch touchscreen that controls almost everything – a true tech-fest! Material quality is generally premium, offering seating for five, six, or seven passengers depending on configuration, with those Falcon Wing doors making rear access a breeze. For your gear, there's 12.6 ft³ of trunk space, expanding to a massive 85.8 ft³ with seats folded, plus a handy 6.6 ft³ frunk up front. Tesla’s native infotainment is slick, though no official Apple CarPlay or Android Auto.
Performance & Driving Experience
The Model X 75D delivers that instant electric punch Tesla is famous for, zipping from 0-60 mph in a brisk 4.9 seconds – pretty quick for a big SUV! Power comes from a dual-motor all-wheel-drive setup, with a Permanent Magnet Synchronous Motor (PMSM) at the front and an AC Induction Motor (IM) at the rear, combining for 245 kW (around 328 hp) and 387 lb-ft of torque. The standard air suspension provides a generally smooth ride, and while it's no sports car, handling is confident. Strong regenerative braking allows for easy one-pedal driving.
Range, Battery & Charging
Under the floor, the 2019 Model X 75D packs a 72.5 kWh usable battery, offering a Green Cars Compare estimated real-world range of 210 miles – enough for daily duties and decent road trips. It sips energy at a rate of 2.9 mi/kWh. For home charging, its 11.5 kW AC on-board charger can top up the battery overnight in about 7-8 hours. Out and about, it uses the Tesla (NACS) port and can hit a max DC fast charging speed of 120 kW on the Supercharger network, getting you back on the road swiftly.
Safety & Driver-Assistance Features
Safety is a big Tesla selling point, and the Model X 75D scored an impressive 5-star overall rating from NHTSA. It came equipped with a solid suite of standard active safety features, including automatic emergency braking, forward collision warning, and blind-spot monitoring. Tesla's Autopilot system, offering adaptive cruise control and lane keeping assist, was also standard. Buyers could opt for Enhanced Autopilot or the Full Self-Driving Capability package for even more advanced driver-assist functions, though the latter's full potential continues to evolve via software updates.
Warranty & Maintenance Coverage
When new, the 2019 Model X 75D was typically covered by Tesla's 4-year/50,000-mile basic limited warranty. Crucially for an EV, the battery and drive unit received a more generous 8-year/unlimited-mile warranty, offering peace of mind. Like all EVs, maintenance is generally lower than gas cars, with no oil changes needed. Tesla handles most updates over-the-air, continuously improving features. While early Model X units had some reliability niggles, many have been addressed, and the core EV powertrain is robust. Always check specific used vehicle history.
