There are so many interesting aspects to the 2022 Model X — the panoramic windshield, the upward-opening falcon-wing doors and the sports car-beating acceleration — that you can almost overlook the fact that the Tesla Model X is electric. Cargo and passenger space is impressive, too, as long you opt for the five-seat configuration. But subpar smartphone integration and a lack of practicality continue to be weak spots.
Power-swiveling capability for the center touchscreen added midway through model year
Previous Long Range trim is now simply known as Model X
Part of the first Model X generation introduced for 2016
What is the Model X?
Tesla's futuristic Model X SUV has been around for more than five years yet it still turns heads, even before the falcon-wing rear doors open up. This electric SUV has no match among rivals when it comes to acceleration. And all that power and those otherworldly looks come backed, impressively, by more than 350 miles of range.
For 2021, Tesla gave the Model X a face-lift inside and out so we're not expecting anything major to change for 2022. But we could imagine the bonkers Plaid+ trim from the Model S making its way into the Model X lineup. If you're not familiar with Plaid+, Tesla says it will give the Model S 520 miles of range and about 1,100 horsepower. Tesla does have a flair for the dramatic, so if the automaker can offer an 1,100-horsepower SUV, we think it'll do it.
Edmunds says
The Model X remains a unique vehicle and we don't expect Tesla to make any major changes for 2022. It's in the realm of possibility that it could expand the trim lineup with the Plaid+ to offer one of the fastest SUVs on the planet. But if you're interested in a Model X now, we don't see any reason to pass up the 2021 model. If you're a fan of EVs, don't forget to check out our real-world EV range tests and stay with Edmunds for the latest news and expert reviews on electric vehicles.
According to GeoTab’s data, if the observed degradation rates are maintained, the vast majority of batteries will outlast the usable life of the vehicle.
Estimated battery warranty remaining is 5 years or 108,000 miles for this car.

2020 Tesla Model X Long Range 4dr SUV AWD w/Prod. End 05/20 (electric DD)
The Model X is roomy; In a 5-seater we can have two Midsized dogs in boxes in the trunk; two teenager in the back and everyones stuff for a winter vacation. Its SO great for trips. The car is fun, space-age and only slightly more expensive then the S. The falcon doors are special, but we like them; you get to know automatically when they are extremely practical compared to normal doors … and when they are not. We’ve had no serious repairs over the 15 months we’ve had it: Wind noise from a door, a sensor that dropped off; all fixed fast and with a free loaner car to try. Only issue i would say is the paint; wrap if you care for this.
Best car I have ever owned!

2020 Tesla Model X Long Range 4dr SUV AWD w/Prod. End 05/20 (electric DD)
I have had this car for about two months. I have a 2020 Model X Long Range Plus. On a full charge I get 351 miles of range, which is phenomenal! I recommend getting the 20in rims, because they give a softer more luxurious ride, and they give better range than the 22in wheels. It is a very good car for long road trips. After driving it, charging up is not as much of a burden as I thought … it would be. I highly recommend The Tesla Model X. 5 stars.

2020 Tesla Model X Long Range 4dr SUV AWD w/Prod. End 05/20 (electric DD)
We have new 2020 Model X, after owning BMW's and Cadillac's in the past and can honestly say we love where the future is heading. The autonomous driving is a game changer. Wish Tesla would sell this tech so that roadways could be safer everywhere.
Biggest things to love:
- Acceleration
- Grounded - all weight underneath
- Free supercharging for life (roadtrip!?)
- All premium features … including towing are now included no extra cost
- Real world range holds up (even in the cold once battery thermalizes)
- Infotainment (watching Netflix/Hulu/Youtube while charging with luxury speaker surround)
- Constant updates and upgrades for no cost
- Most comfortable front seats I've ridden in on long drives
Opportunities
- DC outlet in vehicle
- Option 240V outlet (like the CyberTruck will have)
- Update to the Model 3 / Y faster charging battery tech
- Offer "Insane" upgrade to long range for a cost (unlock 30% more torque from same motors)

2020 Tesla Model X Long Range Plus 4dr SUV AWD (electric DD)
I bought this car exactly one year ago and I have had one catastrophic failure, countless intermittent sensor failures, frequent pop up warnings about break outages, and the radio works occasionally. I can find myself driving down the road and will get a pop-up that says the sensoring isn't working and drive with caution, or that the brakes are not working well and to give myself extra … stopping time. These can just pop up out of the blue. Because the car is actually a giant computer they will resolve with reboot - stop, turn it off, let it rest, and restart - however this isn't feasible on the freeway or in other driving situations. It is frightening to drive this car because I don't know when the alerts pop up if they are computer bugs or real issues. When I had the Electronic Fuse module failure pop-ups piled up on top of each other in a period of about one minute while I was driving to get my grandson. I was just able to get the car out of traffic before the entire system shut down and the car had to be towed.
Upon getting towed to the Tesla service center I came to learn that there is no one there who contacts your or helps you. All information and communication come through the App. It was almost three days before the App said anything at all - and then it told me I'd hear something in 14 days! I finally managed to find a person who offered me Uber credits to use while the car was unavailable. This was not a viable option for a 62 year old who drives grandchildren during Covid. on day 6 they got me a loaner car and I got the car back on day 8. When you go to the service center to get the car the people working there know nothing about the cars. They read the same information off of the App that the customer sees. When you pick up a car at a dealer service department the service people can talk to you and tell what happened, what they did, and why. Not at Tesla.
The radio works at will. The Tesla entertainment system always works with music but the car chooses to play the FM radio and the Sirius radio on a whim. At present it has been 3 days. There is no one at Tesla to speak to or to ask for help. Two times I have tried to schedule a service appointment just to speak to someone. The last time it took 3 weeks and then they texted me on the App. No people existed. At present I am waiting for 8 days to get the text message to ask my question.
The car receives software updates about every 6-8 weeks. They send really important things like more backgammon game scenarios, revised arcade games, redesigned dash board and Tesla screen. Their giant computer is filled with bugs and glitches and they never send anything that would provide for a better, safer drive.
Because of Covid I drive very little - so at one year the car has 3200 miles on it. I have had a lifetime of pop-up alerts and scares for 3200 miles. I have no confidence in this car and would never drive it more than about 25 miles from home. There are no service centers available if I get far from home, there is no spare tire, and there isn't anyone to contact or talk to if I have problems.
The gull wing doors - while looking cool - are really difficult and cumbersome. They allow for much less access room in crowded spaces that regular swinging doors. It is practically impossible to get a baby seat out of the care when it is garaged - and the same for accessing the child seat on the other side. I have to stoop low at the waste to get into the vehicle.
It gave a great test drive and was very impressive. For the fast pick-up and smooth ride it is a great car. But as a giant computer on wheels purchased from an App that has no human backup it is a terrible investment.

Rivian R1S vs. Tesla Model X Plaid | Three Row EV SUV Comparison Test | Which Luxury EV SUV Is Best?
The Rivian R1S and Tesla Model X Plaid each take a very different approach to the large luxury three-row EV SUV segment — a segment in which they're essentially the only two major players. Tesla's got years of experience under its belt at this point — though it's definitely still a startup — while Rivian is the newcomer looking to fight. Both SUVs are mega-powerful and lay… down performance figures that seem to defy the laws of physics, and both boast impressive electric rangers. So, which one comes out on top? Join Edmunds' Ryan ZumMallen in the video above to find out!
