DELIVERY DAY FOR 2023 TESLA MODEL X PLAID

EV Channels Review

The reviewer details the delivery day experience for a 2023 Tesla Model X Plaid, replacing a previous Long Range model that was bought back due to issues. Initial impressions highlight a mix of satisfaction and concern. While happy to have the 6-seater configuration, which was the primary driver for the purchase, the reviewer notes the return of the standard steering wheel, missing the yoke, and expresses disappointment with existing quality control issues such as panel misalignment, paint imperfections, and a software glitch causing the screen to restart. Despite these drawbacks, the reviewer plans to submit service tickets to document the issues within the warranty period. The overall sentiment is that the Plaid feels similar to the Long Range, with the main differentiator being the steering wheel and the inclusion of the 6-seater option, which was a more cost-effective choice than upgrading a Long Range model.
