About used Tesla Model X cars from Arnold Clark

 

Unveiled in 2012 at Tesla’s design studios, the Model X prototype and has its base DNA from the Model S saloon. It is a pioneering all-electric SUV that comes with five, six or seven seats. It offers eco-conscious families a luxurious and dynamic solution for everyday journeys. Despite its four-wheel-drive setup, the Model X is an on-road vehicle only and stands almost in a class of its own. Its closest rivals include the Jaguar I-Pace, the Audi e-tron, the Mercedes-Benz EQC and the BMW iX.

UK deliveries of the Model X began in the spring of 2016. Buyers could choose from the 60D and 90D, with the P90D arriving shortly afterwards. The P stood for Performance, and featured a more powerful electric motor on the rear axle. Introduced in 2017, the 100D and P100D variants were last to use this naming convention. By 2019 the brand started calling its variants by their range capability. These are the; Standard Range AWD, Long Range AWD and Long Range Performance AWD.

In December 2021, Tesla made the decision to stop taking orders for the Model X outside of North America. As such, there was a two-year gap in deliveries to the UK.

Tesla Model X updates and facelifts

 

The Model X received an updated in early 2021. This replaced the Performance trim level with the Plaid. Sitting alongside the dual-motor options, the Plaid features three motors. There are two on the rear axle and one on the front. The vehicle’s exterior also received a refresh. It, sported a redesigned front bumper and diffuser as well as the addition of 22-inch alloy wheels.

In 2023, Tesla made the decision to make the Model X only in left-hand drive. From this point, only Plaid variants were available in the UK. This added to the desirability of used right-hand-drive versions of the standard model.

Practicality and style of the car

 

The Tesla Model X has the edge over its competitors thanks to its three layout options. New buyers could specify either five, six or seven seats. The six-seater option providing three rows of two seats. At a little over five metres long and 2.3 metres wide, the vehicle offers generous cabin space. It also has an impressive amount of boot space. The six and seven-seat variants both having a 425-litre capacity. The five-seat option offers a remarkable 1,050 litres. You can raise the boot floor for a reduced lip height, making loading simpler.

Fold the rear seats down and there’s up to 2,180 litres of space. This can enable you to carry a bike, camping gear or small items of furniture. There’s also a 187-litre cubby under the bonnet, which is perfect for storing charging cables.

If that doesn’t provide enough storage for your needs, the Model X offers a braked towing capacity of up to 2,250kg. As such, it can pull a large caravan, trailer or horsebox.

Running costs

 

As an innovative, pure electric SUV, the Tesla Model X occupies group 50 out of 50 for insurance. The Mercedes-Benz EQC and selected Jaguar I-Pace and BMW iX variants occupy the same group. When it comes to road tax, the Model X is exempt until 1 April 2025. It also avoids city centre congestion charges.
