MODEL X TOWING TO TEXAS

EV Channels Review

This livestream documents a road trip in a Tesla Model X Plaid, towing an open trailer en route to Cybertruck testing. The hosts highlight the vehicle's capability to use Autopilot while towing by disabling trailer mode, though they note it's not officially recommended and requires extra attention. They express frustration with the Model X's automatic door functionality and the lack of parking sensors, which limit door opening. The towing experience is described as shaky at times, particularly on uneven roads, with the trailer noticeably moving the vehicle. Despite these drawbacks, the Model X Plaid demonstrates sufficient power for towing and maintains reasonable efficiency. The stream also touches on the upcoming Cybertruck's charging performance, which is anticipated to be a weak point based on early data, and contrasts it with competitors like the Kia EV9.
