BRUTALLY HONEST REVIEW - STILL WORTH IT? TESLA MODEL X 2024

EV Channels Review

The reviewer provides a brutally honest, owner's perspective on the 2024 Tesla Model X Plaid after nine months of ownership. While acknowledging its incredible power and performance, the review highlights significant drawbacks that question its value proposition in Tesla's current lineup. Key criticisms include the lack of a powered frunk, the impracticality of the 6-seat configuration's non-folding captain's chairs, and frustratingly unreliable Falcon Wing doors that have become overly cautious due to software updates, often refusing to open in garages. The reviewer also expresses disappointment with the non-customizable secondary display and the ineffective sun visors. Comparing it unfavorably to the Cybertruck, the reviewer points out the Cybertruck's powered frunk, better interior tech (like ambient lighting), physical buttons, and front-facing camera as features the Model X desperately needs. Ultimately, the reviewer suggests that the Cybertruck offers a more modern and versatile package, leading to a personal regret about not waiting for it instead of purchasing the Model X, despite liking the car's overall driving dynamics and spaciousness.
