There's so many interesting aspects to the 2020 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.

2020 Tesla Model X Review
Pros
- Instant and powerful acceleration
- Electric range is impressive
- Three-row seating is available
- Access to Tesla's extensive Supercharger network
Cons
- Finicky upward-swinging rear doors impede functionality
- Vast windshield lets too much sun and heat into the cabin
- Apple CarPlay and Android Auto aren't offered
What's new
- Long Range Plus model offers a bit more range than the previous Long Range
- Part of the first Model X generation introduced for 2016
Overview

Even a few years after its debut, there's nothing else on the road quite like the Tesla Model X. It delivers more than 300 miles of electric range and packs features such as its novel folding falcon-wing doors and full access to Tesla's Supercharger network. Plenty of automakers have announced that they're coming out with electrified SUVs, but for now the X is in a class of one.

What's new for the 2020 Model X? Well, Tesla's rolling updates make it difficult to separate the car into model years, but there have been no major changes for 2020 (though the revised Long Range Plus model adds a few more miles of range compared to the previous Long Range version). The X is still available in two basic configurations that differ in performance and electric range. Both come with Tesla's Autopilot driver assistance system and offer a more robust version as an option.
Certainly, the Model X has its flaws. The falcon-wing doors, for instance, can be slow to open and won't open completely if you've parked in an area with a low ceiling. And forget about installing a traditional roof rack system. Nor is the Model X's interior as richly appointed as that of a traditional luxury SUV. But until other three-row EVs hit the market, there's nothing that offers the same combination of space, utility and gasoline-free driving as Tesla's Model X.

8.1
out of 10
We drove the 2020 Tesla Model X on our test track and on real roads. Our Edmunds team conducts rigorous independent vehicle testing, driving 500,000 miles a year.
Performance
8/10
How does the Model X drive? Performance has become the calling card of the Tesla brand and the midsize Model X upholds that reputation. Our test Model X Long Range accelerated from 0 to 60 mph in just 4.8 seconds at the Edmunds test track, which is quick for a luxury SUV. And this isn't even the Performance version.
Balancing out that impressive speed are excellent brakes that are both easy to use in traffic and strong and confident when you need to stop in a hurry. There's enough regenerative braking when lifting off the accelerator that you can often drive around without touching the brake pedal. Ultra-quick steering makes the X feel nimble, while its low center of gravity and adaptive suspension keep body motions to a minimum. This sizable family SUV drives more like a car.
Also worth noting: The adaptive air suspension provides up to 8.9 inches of ground clearance when you need it.

Comfort
8/10
How comfortable is the Model X? One benefit of the larger Tesla models, including the Model X, is the adaptive air suspension, which delivers significant improvements in ride comfort. Even with 20-inch wheels and an exceptionally high tire pressure of 45 psi, the Model X boasts an admirable ability to absorb bumps in the road. This quality, along with a cabin well insulated against outside noise, makes for a very comfortable environment.
As far as seats go, the Model X's are pretty well cushioned and provide enough adjustments to dial in your personal comfort. But the simulated leather upholstery lacks breathability, so even mildly warm weather can make the seats feel swampy. The Model X's climate controls are simple to use, but know that the extra-large windshield lets in a bit more heat during hot summer days than a typical-size windshield.

Interior
8.5/10
How’s the interior? Obviously, the doors are the biggest story here on the Model X. First you have the driver's door that opens automatically and can be shut without lifting a finger (brilliant!). Then you have the rear doors that open like wings (conversation starter!) and provide unmatched access to the rear seats. But they can also be liabilities in places/garages with low ceilings.
The Model X's centralized touchscreen interface is pretty straightforward and easy to use. It's the gateway to most vehicle functions, save for a few things the driver needs, such as wiper controls and mirror adjustments that thankfully have their own controls.
Interior space is generous for the first and second rows. The complex falcon-wing door mechanisms intrude somewhat on third-row headroom. Oh, and that aforementioned extra-large windshield provides a panoramic view out like no other.

Technology
7/10
How’s the tech? For all the technological marvels in the Model X, there are some shortcomings. The lack of proper smartphone integration via Apple CarPlay and Android Auto is a big drawback, and Bluetooth is a poor substitute. If you're parked, you've got access to an internet browser that allows you to do stuff like watch Netflix or scroll through YouTube videos — provided you're subscribed to a Tesla data plan or connected to Wi-Fi.
The Model X's advanced driver aids also didn't prove as robust as those in other Teslas we've tested. The adaptive cruise control was prone to false positive collision warnings, and lane centering seemed to favor the driver-side line instead of the center. The real-time digital map of all the cars and motorcycles around you is pretty neat to see, and we like that you can pull up the rearview camera anytime you want.
One of the greatest innovations from Tesla, however, is constant over-the-air updates that can add new features and system optimizations. Also, the big center screen is the largest in the industry with crisp graphics and a stunning Google-based nav system. Our only gripe here is that, in spotty service areas, it can leave you temporarily mapless.

Storage
8.5/10
How’s the storage? Storage is excellent in the Model X. The combination of a large 26-cubic-foot rear cargo area with generous underfloor storage (sans optional third row) plus the largest front trunk in the segment makes the X the best at hauling cargo. Though we don't recommend an EV if you need to tow things over long distances, the Model X is capable of towing up to 5,000 pounds.
In-cabin storage for small items is better than average but still not ideal. There's sizable storage underneath a sliding cover, with configurable partitions. They're a bit clumsy, though, and not the most efficient design. A flip-up wireless phone charger holds your phone securely while it charges.
The falcon-wing doors absolutely rule for car seat access, and there's sufficient room for a large rear-facing seat behind an average-size driver. Car seat anchors are tucked a bit deep, though, and the fixed headrests mean awkward routing of top tethers to the side.

Range and Efficiency
8/10
How are the range and efficiency? The Model X Long Range we tested (not the latest Long Range Plus) has an EPA-estimated range of 328 miles and a consumption of 35 kWh per 100 miles, which is less efficient than the average luxury EV. But the Model X is one of the larger EVs sold and boasts impressive performance.
In Edmunds' real-world testing, we saw 294 miles of range and matched the EPA's estimate of 35 kWh/100 miles. This involved charging the battery to full for max range, which should only be done for longer road trips. A lower charge for daily use is what the manufacturer recommends.
The X comes with an 11.5-kW onboard charger and the usual assortment of charge cord options, including a standard 120-volt household adapter, a 240-volt SAE adapter (for public charge equipment) and a NEMA 14-50 adapter (what you'd find at an RV park). It also works with Tesla's nationwide Supercharger network, which can make long-distance driving a viable option.

It also works with Tesla's nationwide Supercharger network, which can make long-distance driving a viable option.
Value
8/10
Is the Model X a good value? Overall, the Model X's pricing is pretty competitive among midsize luxury EVs even without the benefit of a tax credit. Tesla's build quality has steadily improved over the years, though the Model X's is still a bit below the competition. You do get a battery range and performance advantage, but the interior lacks the solidity of an Audi, even if the minimalist design is visually appealing.
The basic warranty is four years and 50,000 miles, which is about average but less than what Jaguar offers. The powertrain is covered for eight years/150,000 miles, and Tesla guarantees that the battery will retain at least 70% of its original capacity over that period.

Wildcard
9/10
The Model X is engineered to wow. It'll impress your passengers with its sheer speed and panoramic windshield, and it'll entertain parents in the school pickup line as your kids pile in through an outstretched falcon-wing door. The X's theatrics have likely converted a good number of SUV fans to EVs.
Even a base Model X is pretty fun to hustle around thanks to the low-mounted battery weight that makes it feel more like a car than an SUV. The immediate thrust from the electric motors becomes addicting, so much so that you may swear off gas-powered cars for good.

2020 Tesla Model X trim level differences
Tesla often changes up its products at unexpected times, so what is true today may change tomorrow. The 2020 Model X is currently available in two trim levels, Long Range (later changed to Long Range Plus) and Performance. As the names imply, the difference between the pair is electric range and performance figures. Whichever version you get, all-wheel drive comes standard.
Which Model X trim does Edmunds recommend?
Of the two trims, we recommend going with the Model X Long Range (replaced by the Long Range Plus later in the year). While it's not quite as quick as the Performance model, it has more power and performance than most other SUVs. We think the extra range and cost savings are worth the hit to performance.

Love this family car 4 life!

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)
Once you drive electric, hard to go back

2019 Tesla Model X 100D 4dr SUV AWD w/Prod. End 1/19 (electric DD)
The review is based on almost 1000 miles on this SUV. Without Tesla world would not have known how good an electric car technology can be. Instant acceleration that would leave a Ferrari in shock, smooth quiet ride, outstanding autopilot, unbreakable motor and elimination of annoying car salesmen are some of the finest features of owning a Tesla. Car never feels old due to continuous … over-the-air updates for software- just like iPhone. Range is impressive but suitable if your daily drive is less than 200 miles. Anything more and you would need some charging time. Interior is spartan, full of useful technology unlike many gadgety German cars. Rear doors are strange but kids love it. Supercharger network was fun to use and not busy at Barstow. 150 miles in 30 minutes, we got free overnight charge at hotel as well.
After being introduced to this new world of driving experience, no Audi, BMW or MB will feel that good again.
We have a limited number of reviews for the 2020 Tesla Model X, so we've included reviews for other years of the Model X since its last redesign.
