Tesla Model X electric SUV revealed

Tesla has launched the world’s first fully electric SUV, the Model X. The long awaited car gets a design language quite similar to the Model S and features similar headlamps and a sloping design language that we have come to be so used to. Tesla claims that the Model X’s drag coefficient is a mere 0.24, and that along with an electronically deployed spoiler makes the SUV very sleek and aerodynamic.

The Model X also boasts a first ever set of Gullwing or Falcon Doors are Tesla calls it for the rear that makes getting in and out of the car very easy. The Model X also gets the largest ever windscreen in production to grace any car today. The Model X is available in both 6 and 7 seater options i.e. in 2+2+2 or 2+3+2 configuration. The third row can also fold flat when not in use electronically. Other interior trim includes a huge portrait configuration mounted screen just like the Model S gets.

As for now, the Model X will be offered in two versions. Both get the all-wheel drive system with the 90D variant offering two 259PS motors for each axle, providing a 0-100kmph acceleration in 4.8 seconds and an estimated range of 414 km. The P90D range-topping version has one 259PS motor and one 503PS  motor for a standard 0-100kmph sprint in only 3.8 seconds. With the Ludicrous Speed upgrade the model can reach the 100kmph mark in only 3.2 seconds.
