GET A CLOSER LOOK AT THE TESLA MODEL X PLAID!

EV Channels Review

The reviewer provides an in-depth look at the 2023 Tesla Model X Plaid, comparing it extensively with their previous 2022 Long Range model. Key observations include the updated headlights and Hardware 4 cameras on the 2023 model, and the removal of front door ultrasonic sensors. The reviewer expresses a mixed feeling about the new round steering wheel, missing the yoke's comfort for resting wrists, and notes that certain information can be obscured by the wheel. The Plaid's acceleration is highlighted as significantly more intense than the Long Range's 'Insane' mode due to its tri-motor setup. Several minor cosmetic and alignment issues are noted, such as a loose rubber piece on the door, misaligned Falcon doors and charge port, and adhesive issues on the rear 'Tesla' badge, which have been reported for mobile service. Despite these imperfections, the reviewer emphasizes that functionality remains paramount and the car is still recommended for those who need more than five seats, praising the third-row vents and the overall utility, while acknowledging that Tesla ownership, even with issues, remains worthwhile for their specific needs and driving habits.
