Video Summary
- Updated LED headlights and Daytime Running Lights. - Resculpted lower bumper. - The black painted Model X has been wrapped in a chalky exterior with teal accents. - Two wheel options: 20s and 22s. The 22s cut the range, but look better. - Blacked-out brake calipers, mirror caps, and window trim. - Flush-mounted door handles. - Giant greenhouse, which provides tons of passenger volume, but it's not a very striking profile. - Roof folds into a duck-lipped trunk. - LED taillights within a blacked-out housing. - Lower diffuser is resculpted. - Model X Plaid is only offered in a six-seat configuration. - Third row contains two seats; the second-row seats float and have power adjustments. - Enough knee room in the third row seats. The foot pockets are big to slide your feet under, there's thigh support, and plenty of headroom. - The third row has cup holders. - The monitor controls climate and can play movies. It has two USB ports and cup holders that pop out. - Front doors pop out. - The mix of materials include duotone black on white leatherette, matte carbon fiber trim, and white contrast stitching. There's tons of storage in the door. - Has a digital gauge cluster with high refresh rate and crisp resolution. - The 16-inch screen responds fast, but lacks Apple Car Play or Android Auto. The screen has Easter eggs. - Wireless charging pads. - Is so wild in person. Yoke is a cross between a video game controller and an F1 steering wheel. The turn signals are located on the wheel. - There is minimal wind or road noise inside. - A tri-motor setup provides 1,020 horsepower and 752 pound-feet of torque. - Although the acceleration is good, the brakes don't quite provide the same stopping power. - The Model X Plaid has a good acceleration and handling, just not in braking. - For $131,990, with acceleration and handling the Model X is the most powerful production SUV on the road, but for the price, the interior is not very luxurious. - The acceleration is stupid and scary.
