2026 Tesla Model X Refresh...What were they thinking?

Video Summary

The Tesla Model X was loved for its color, looks, Falcon Wing doors, and was an amazing vehicle.
The Model 3 is getting a facelift with new suspension and a redesigned, clean interior.
Model X and S have been left in the dust.
Back when there weren’t many other luxury EVs out there, it made sense why people were getting the Model X, since it was bigger than the Model Y.
The Model X has more miles, two screens, Captain’s chairs, and is the perfect family SUV at a luxury price.
Tesla just refreshed the Model X.
Compared to BMW iX, Mercedes EQS, or Lucid Gravity, there weren't many added features.
They didn’t add much to set the Model X apart from the competition, especially since the CyberTruck has a higher voltage battery architecture, reverse charging, and power share. It also has induction wireless charging.
The front-facing camera wasn't paired with a 360-degree panoramic view.
Added new pink color, RGB lighting, slightly softer suspension, and better seals for a quieter ride.
The Model S Plaid is getting new seats and maybe a body kit, with an increase in price.
Did not add independent rear steering or steer by wire.
No automatic frunk. There’s no redesigned battery architecture for faster charging, new battery with more miles, or a nicely redesigned interior that focuses on full self-driving.
There’s no premium fabric or heads-up display, no digital rearview mirror or any new tech.
The Model X base is cheap compared to competition, but they should add more options to add more luxurious features.
They need things like massage seats.
Today, Tesla is the best bang for your buck EV.
For those who want more luxury or have the option of getting higher trim models, this is not the one.
In full-size family segment, the Lucid Gravity gets 450 miles, compared to 364 for a BMW iX.
I was hoping for more miles, at least in the 400s for the Model X.
What could be a 500-mile Model X for people who want a bigger battery pack.
Once you go CyberTruck, you can’t go back because of the steer-by-wire and independent rear steering.
In earlier years, the Tesla interiors were high quality, but the loaners used a lot showed that the wood began peeling off, the console cover doesn’t work and can almost break a finger. There’s a lot of creaking.
It’s just not $80,000 car quality.
There are no cons to Model Y since it’s cheaper and provides better value compared to Model X. It’s a better bargain than a Model X.
