2025 Tesla Model X SUV Trims Comparison

Trim level differences

The 2025 Tesla Model X is an all-wheel-drive electric SUV available in dual-motor Model X and tri-motor Model X Plaid trim levels. The EPA-estimated driving range for the Model X is 316-329 miles, depending on wheel size. The Plaid is rated for between 294 and 314 miles. Standard equipment highlights are listed below, but note that Tesla adds, removes and upgrades features via over-the-air software updates frequently during a given model year. Keep reading for our rundown of the Model X's most significant features.

Model X
Offers the longest driving range plus plenty of standard equipment, such as:

  • Dual electric motors (670 horsepower with Tesla quoted 0-60 mph acceleration in 3.8 seconds)
  • Air suspension
  • 20-inch wheels
  • Trailer hitch
  • Tri-zone automatic climate control
  • Five-passenger seating configuration
  • Heated and ventilated front seats
  • Heated rear seats
  • Heated steering wheel
  • Panoramic glass roof
  • 17-inch infotainment touchscreen
  • Entertainment suite with gaming and video streaming services (usable while parked)
  • Bluetooth connectivity for multiple devices
  • Navigation system
  • 22-speaker audio system
  • Wireless charging pad

The Model X also comes with Tesla's Autopilot collection of driver assist systems, which consists of:

  • Adaptive cruise control (maintains a driver-set distance between the Tesla and the car in front)
  • Forward collision warning with emergency automatic braking (warns you of an impending collision and applies the brakes in certain scenarios)
  • Lane keeping system (makes minor steering corrections to help keep the vehicle centered in its lane)
  • Blind-spot warning (alerts you if a vehicle in the next lane over is in your blind spot)
  • 360-degree camera system (gives you a top-down view of the Model X and its surroundings in tight parking situations)

Model X Plaid
Equipped much the same as the standard Model X but adds mind-boggling performance with:

  • Three electric motors (up to 1,020 hp; 0-60 mph in 2.5 seconds with rollout subtracted)
  • Torque vectoring (adjusts power to individual wheels to improve handling)
  • High-performance brakes
  • Six-passenger seating configuration

Only a few options are available for the Model X and Plaid, including:

  • 22-inch wheels
  • Seating for six (Model X and Plaid) or seven passengers (standard Model X only)
  • Yoke-style steering wheel

Full Self-Driving (Supervised) is an optional upgrade. Despite what the name suggests, it still requires the driver to be ready to react and take over but does allow for:

  • Navigation-following capability for steering, acceleration and braking
  • Automated steering on highways and city streets
  • Traffic light and stop sign recognition
  • Automatic lane changes
  • Automated parking system

Which Model X trim does Edmunds recommend?

If you've got the extra $15K difference between the standard Model X and the Plaid, and don't mind being limited to six passengers, by all means get the Plaid. That kind of power and speed never gets old. But we don't think the standard trim will disappoint anyone. It's plenty quick and plenty comfortable with its air suspension, heated and ventilated front seats, and heated rear seats. The 17-inch touchscreen, streaming gaming system and 22-speaker sound system will also satisfy most tech aficionados.
