Our size chart takes the guesswork out of finding the right fit, plus we’ll reveal which brand of wipers other Model X owners recommend (which also happens to be what Tesla installs at the factory).

About the Tesla Model X
Tesla unveiled the Model X prototype in February 2012 at its Hawthorne design studios, though production faced multiple delays before first deliveries began on September 29, 2015. Built on a modified Model S platform while sharing about 30 percent of components, the Model X became Tesla’s entry into the SUV segment.
The signature falcon-wing rear doors (which open upward rather than outward) created significant engineering challenges that contributed to delayed launches originally planned for 2014.
Early Model X variants offered various battery configurations with rear-wheel or all-wheel drive. The SUV quickly gained attention for its performance and technology, ranking seventh among global plug-in vehicle sales in 2016 despite being in its first full year. Traditional luxury SUVs from Mercedes-Benz, BMW, Audi, and Lexus remained the Model X’s primary competition during this period, as few electric alternatives existed.
Competition intensified starting in 2018 when the Jaguar I-Pace and Audi e-tron arrived, followed by the Mercedes-Benz EQC and BMW iX. These German rivals brought traditional luxury interiors and conventional door designs, though none matched the Model X’s acceleration or Tesla’s extensive Supercharger network.
A comprehensive 2021 refresh brought the tri-motor Plaid variant generating around 1,020 horsepower with 0-60 mph acceleration in about 2.5 seconds, establishing new performance benchmarks for SUVs. This update also introduced a revised interior with the controversial yoke steering option and improved materials.
The current Model X lineup offers Long Range and Plaid configurations with EPA-estimated ranges of approximately 348 and 333 miles respectively. Despite being nearly a decade old in its current generation, the Model X remains competitive through continuous running changes rather than traditional model year redesigns.
Today’s electric SUV market has expanded considerably with entries like the Mercedes-Benz EQS SUV, Audi Q8 e-tron, BMW iX, and Cadillac Lyriq, though the Model X maintains its position through pricing starting around $80k and unique features like seating for up to seven passengers.
