Attention! If you have problems navigating your smart phone (with the exception of anything apple) then this car is probably NOT for you. On a positive note, this car has changed my life! I have owned my 2017 X for 6 months and managed to put 21,000+ trouble free miles so far. I've taken this car up and down the mountains, everglades, dirt, rock, middle of nowhere and I loved every bit of it. The view from inside is better then my convertible! The cooling seats are great in the summer plus you can cool or heat the car from the tesla app on your phone before you enter + lock/ unlock doors + even move it forward and backward for tight parking etc. Adjustable suspension knows what to do on bad terrain. Autopilot sure helps in traffic or long trips just be alert since bad drivers are everywhere and construction or roads with no lines or faded lines can confuse the car periodically. I have the 5 seat configuration and my rear seat folds down. I heard all the new models do that now too. Charging is super easy and fast compared to stopping multiple times to fill up and the navigation is so spot on it has signal even when my phone didn't! I've heard of some people having issues with their cars I'm def not one of them and it's actually pretty rare. Again please read my first sentence and that should explain everything. Upon delivery you are treated with excellent service and a full introduction of the vehicle. It will take a few days to soak in all the amazing stuff this SUV (that drives like a lotus) can do!

Yes it's all electric, and yes, it's pricey around $90-100K for a "used" car, but if you can find a low mileage Model X P90D in excellent condition, then it's certainly worth looking at. Most people will find the 2017 75D or 100D regular version (not the "P" version) to have about the same look & feel as I didn't see that many changes from the 2016 to 2017 for both the "P" and "non-P" versions, but the one option on the P90D X that I test drove had "Ludicrous Mode". For those who don't know what that is, it's basically taking a very fast car and making it ridiculously faster. Other than on a race track, I'm not sure how beneficial that option really is to the average driver, but at around 3.0 seconds from 0-60, you certainly can get a jump on others at the stop light or merge onto the freeway very quickly. I guess it's one of those "nice to haves" but probably not used that often in a commuter car. Best thing to do is test drive both the "P" and "non-P" cars at a Tesla dealer and see for yourself. Keep in mind a "new" 2017 P100D with Ludicrous mode will probably set you back over $140,000. So for a (1) year old car with under 10K miles, at a price of around $90K, a 2016 Model X P90D is a substantial $(50,000) savings, or on the other hand a huge loss if you bought it "new" in 2016. By the way, I saw the sticker price of the car I test drove to add "Ludicrous Mode" was $10,000, and the total price of the car was $147,000. Both have Tesla's 50,000 mile 4 year warranty and the 8 year on the battery & motors, but check with the Tesla dealer to confirm these numbers. The only drawback was my test car had Autopilot v 1.0, and not the latest v 2.0 Autopilot, so the 2016 I drove could not eventually be a 100% self-driving car.

A $100,000 turd on wheels

Purchased a 2017 model x in July 2017 nothing but problems I was told I would get 230 on a charge I’m lucky if I get 150 miles so forget road trips. Numerous problems from defective start up batteries, bad key fobs, light bulbs burning out,air leaking from all the tires. The lastest issue was a flat tire no spare ok but their tow drivers don’t have a spare either ? So the car has to get towed to the dealership and guess what? The dealership doesn’t have a spare tire either so the car has to sit for 5 days while their own dealership orders a tire. Positive nice acceleration and it’s quite but the instrument panel is strange. The sales people lie the updates they promise and all those charging stations they promise are going to open in 3 months never happen. This car is nothing more than a $100,000 turd on wheels folk do not buy this car!! Go buy a Lexus !

I purchased a 2016 Tesla Model X P90D in July of 2022 from a private seller who really loved the model X, but had decided to upgrade to a newer model. I knew I wanted to try an electric SUV and I wanted one with a range that I could drive long distances, so tesla was a no brainer with the supercharging network. Since I purchased it from a private dealer, I also was able to transfer over his free supercharging and extended warranty, which was really great. All that being said, this car has honestly been a huge disappointment to me. It just seems like there are small issues happening all over the place, and a lot of them add up to spending a lot of money. Cost I didn't expect to incur: - Insurance in BC Canada for this car is over $4,000 per year - The tires that fit this car are a bit harder to find and aren't the cheapest tires. They also have a shorter life span because they are a different size in the back and the front of the car, meaning you can't rotate them as much and shouldn't expect them to last as many seasons - I was having issues with the voice command feature on the car since I purchased it and when it was in service, the only solution they could provide was to update the infotainment system which cost $3k. Honestly, it didn't even fix things all that much - the air suspension in the front of the car started leaking as of Jan 2024 and has to be replaced and that is $3k. - Between July of 2022 and Jan of 2024, I have driven the car approximately 20,000km and the value of the car has depreciated approximately 45-55k CAD from when I bought it. I am quite devastated to realize that not only has this been a money pit to have while I've had it, but now that I want to sell, I am losing so much to do so. I've also had issues with the battery life (as others have mentioned) in the colder months being much worse. Also more recently I've been having issues with the windows on the front driver and passenger doors not working properly to close and seal for driving in freezing temps. Also the mirrors not folding in or folding out correctly in freezing temps. A few times this has resulted in me starting to drive without realizing my windows weren't out and struggling to fix it in a safe way while driving. Overall really disappointed. This car just has too many issues and is way too expensive to maintain for a luxury vehicle that's 8 years old
