WAS BUYING A BRAND NEW TESLA MODEL X A HUGE MISTAKE? 6-MONTH OWNERSHIP UPDATE!

EV Channels Review

After six months of ownership, the Tesla Model X is presented as a luxurious, technologically advanced SUV with impressive acceleration and a unique panoramic windshield. The reviewer highlights the intuitive software, excellent driver assistance features (including Autopilot's extended hands-free capability), and the convenience of mobile service. However, significant drawbacks are noted regarding build quality, with issues like rattles, vibrations, misaligned panels, and problematic falcon-wing doors that fail in confined spaces like garages. The reviewer also points out the lack of Qi wireless charging and the discrepancy between advertised and real-world electric range, particularly in winter. Despite these criticisms, the overall sentiment is positive, with the reviewer stating they would buy it again, though they express a preference for the more agile Model 3 Performance for spirited driving. The Model X is recommended for families and vacations due to its space and practicality, but less so as a "fun runabout."
