THE TRUTH 1 MONTH LATER - IS IT WORTH IT? TESLA MODEL X REVIEW

EV Channels Review

After a month of ownership, the reviewer finds the Tesla Model X Plaid to be a more refined, spacious version of the Model Y, but not the significant upgrade expected for its price. Positives include the spacious interior, comfortable ride, and the unique six-seat configuration with captain's chairs, which greatly aids in loading children. The Falcon Wing doors, while visually striking and functional for passenger access, are also highlighted as a potential point of failure and can be overly complicated. The reviewer praises the advanced technology, including the multiple screens and superior audio system compared to the Model Y. However, significant drawbacks are noted: the manual frunk, the unreliability and complexity of the Falcon Wing doors, and the non-functional automatic front doors due to the removal of ultrasonic sensors. The reviewer also expresses frustration with the manual operation required for the second-row seats in the six/seven-seat configurations. Despite these issues, the reviewer ultimately finds the Model X worth it for them due to the overall refinement and creature comforts, though acknowledges it's not for everyone and suggests potential buyers carefully consider the value proposition against other Tesla models.
