Tesla Model X

The Tesla Model X is a battery electric mid-size luxury crossover SUV that Tesla, Inc. built from 2015 to 2026. It was developed from the platform of the full-sized Tesla Model S and is best known for its falcon wing doors, which give rear passengers access to the cabin. The prototype was shown at Tesla's design studios in Hawthorne, California, in February 2012, and first deliveries began in September 2015. The car shares about 30 percent of its content with the Model S, the share originally planned having been about twice that, and it weighs roughly 10 percent more. It was built at the Tesla Factory in Fremont, California. A refresh in 2021 added a Plaid performance version, and a further update followed in June 2025. In January 2026 Tesla announced that the Model X would be discontinued along with the Model S.
