About Tesla model X

The 2023 Model X offers the performance and cachet that comes with the Tesla brand name but its gimmicks aren’t as compelling these days. The luxury electric crossover segment has expanded and now includes better options. Two X models are offered, starting with the dual-motor base SUV, which makes 670 horsepower and offers a 348-mile EPA-rated driving range. The performance-oriented Plaid model costs more but makes an astounding 1020 horsepower and still can go up to 333 miles between charges. We’re impressed by its brutal acceleration and great driving range. Beyond that, though, we question the value of both Model X’s versions when you consider its cabin doesn’t provide the high-end luxury ambiance one expects with a six-figure price tag. New EV SUV entrants such as the BMW iX and the Rivian R1S are cheaper, fancier, and nearly as quick.
