Uploaded 6 years ago by DrivingElectric

Video Summary

- The Tesla Model X is a huge pure-electric SUV that will officially do more than 300 miles to a charge.
- This car can be had with five, six or seven-seat layouts.
- Plugs into a 3-pin domestic and type 2 plug, as well as an industrial plug that will be useful at campsites or industrial sites.
- It has a 100-kilowatt hour battery which is one of the biggest available currently.
- Charging via the 3-pin plug at home will take 36 hours or more.
- Access to a home charger of 7 kilowatts or more will do a full charge in around 11 hours.
- Tesla Supercharger Network is a network of super fast chargers that are Tesla only and becoming very common on the major motorways.
- Easy to use the Tesla Supercharger Network and can charge up the 100D from 20-80% in around 40 minutes.
- Tesla Supercharger will cost you an average of 24 pence per kilowatt hour to fill up and that works out at around 15 pounds for 170 miles more.
- It will range 250-280 miles out of it in normal use, and realistically in cold weather, or a lot of motorway miles, the range will drop to around 230 miles.
- If you get Ludicrous Mode, the car will do 0-62 in under 3 seconds.
- The control weights are intuitive and smooth and easy to drive.
- The Model X is still really fast, smooth, and practical.
- Build quality feels really good and panel gaps look nice.
- It has an optional carbon fibre interior.
- Equipment is pretty good, and has the best autonomous system out there.
- You can have four sets of ISO fix fittings and Model X also comes with a tow bar.
- There is decent boot space with useful underfloor storage.
- The middle row of seats don't fold flat.
- Land Rover Discovery offers better space in the rear-most seats.
- Model X isn't quite as good to drive as the S.
- Has a very un-subtle power delivery.
- Falcon wing doors can be slow.
