Most practical car I own.
Reliable car. Quiet. Easy to drive. The most practical car that I own. Ione 7 cars, but I drive this one practically everyday. It is so convenient never time to buy gas. It is so convenient never to have to worry about oil changes, transmission problems, essentially anything engine related. There is no engine. Service is very good. Car is very quiet. The most convenient thing is charging at home. I essentially wake up to a full tank everyday. I have not used it on long-range strips, such as vacation road trips, due to range anxiety, but otherwise I essentially use this car for everything.

Very good car. Would recommend.
Very good car. Runs very smoothly. I would recommend to everyone that I know. It is also a luxury car. It has a good interior that is nice and comfortable. The outside is also nice. The outside has good and nice color making it look good. Again, I would recommend.

Would totally buy this car again !
I love this car! We love how we never have to pay for gas again! The car is beautiful, adaptive , sleek and awesome to drive. Supercharging is a breeze and with the maps, you can see how busy the superchargers are. We just came back from a long trip and made a day out of sitting at the superchargers and enjoying the sites that we were surrounded with. I definitely recommend the tesla !

A family friendly vehicle.
I like how it has a built in screen for GPS and other such. The seats are very comfortable and if I were to ever have children I think it would be the perfect vehicle for them to be in. The performance of the vehicle is phenomenal I don't have a problem with it.

The automatic drive is a little jerky but there are perks to electric cars.
The auto drive is good but not great, sometimes it does not know what to do and is swerves or jerks or it stops on its own, but when you are driving it manually it feels very smooth and the fact that it is electric is pretty great considering you are helping the environment and I do not have to stop at gas stations and I am saving money on gas.

Vehicle is very good. Please buy it. So good.
No vehicle problems, everything is well. The performance of the car is very good. I love it. Nothing wrong with the car design. Very good car. I recommend buying this if you have the money. The car has autopilot and anything you basically need for one. It is electric too. Good for the environment.

Tesla's outstanding autopilot feature.
Model x is one of the safest SUVs ever. Built from the ground up as an electric vehicle, the body, chassis, restraints and battery technology provide a very low probability of occupant injury. Teslas are equipped with autopilot, which is a self-driving feature.

It has falcon doors, what else do I need to say!
Best car I have ever owned and driven. Eco friendly, quiet, unique, and all around an amazing experience.

It is color and frame work is put together well.
The car is very well put together and has few miles. It is been inspected and is up to date on all qualifying parts. Its very well managed, just received new paint and wrapping. It is a 2016 and just received new tires and transmission work. It is very well put together.

2 things
Great car overall, had it since February, but 2 main issues; 1.Why can I never get the kms range indicated on the dash? In town I'll get about 70-75% of the range indicated between charges; and On the highway I get about 85-90%. I typically drive 90-110km/hr, or about the speed limit; I typically have the AC off, windows closed and we live in a moderate climate. 2. Why does the car not have a hard drive for music storage. Even my older cars have the ability to upload music from a thumb drive into a hard drive. Then the thumb drive can be removed. Access to music is quick. With the Tesla, it seems to have to upload the music every day when I take it out, and that takes a few minutes. It forgets the music I was last listening to, and so I have to reset it up each time. Why is that?

It is the best car in the world. Everyone should have one.
It's the safest car I know of. It has the best overall handling and smooth ride. It is electric reducing my carbon footprint.

Is The 2016 Tesla Model X A Good Car?

We love our tesla. It is a beast in the snow, even with all weather tires. Range is a little low (about 240 miles) but the 100 was not an option when we bought ours. Customer service and services have... Read More

How Reliable Is The 2016 Tesla Model X?

We have never had any major issues with our tesla. The sensor for the falcon wing doors had to be checked due to sensing objects that weren't there.

Is The 2016 Tesla Model X A Good Value?

We paid $110,000 new. The newer model is actually cheaper so I would go with the newer model. Several of the extras are now included in the price.
