After years of waiting, Tesla Model X is finally here - Polidicks

Manually change to HD? Mine's pretty good.

Can't say I'm a fan of the front end, way too much empty space.

Ooooh, ice burn for Volkswagen.

So what happens if a Model X parks really close to another Model X?

They are only selling the P90D for $132,000 Cheaper versions of the model X are coming "soon"

[editline]29th September 2015[/editline] Which was entirely unexpected.[/QUOTE] No word on electrochromic tinting windows (that big space on the windshield), No pictures of the interior, or exterior details, unsure if I like the new nose... I'm left wanting more. Hopefully the design studio will be up soon. [editline]29th September 2015[/editline] Early unveil car vs release model.

Yeah... During the stream I was imbued with a sense of "Fuck yes," but now that it's over, I feel like we barely learned anything more than what we knew from observing the test mules. I guess the wait for more detailed information continues (Though I suspect we'll learn more over the next couple days, if not tonight after the test drives). [editline]29th September 2015[/editline] YUCK GOD WHY NO [img]http://i.imgur.com/kaMeK5o.png[/img] [editline]29th September 2015[/editline] Wait, I just realized... That new sonar that can "see through metal" means [I]no more visible sensors in car bumpers.[/I] Look at the MX. None are discernible. [editline]29th September 2015[/editline] Whoops, nevermind, yeah there are some. I guess maybe in the future there won't be?

holy shit that huge front window looks awesome

[QUOTE=OvB;48792405] [img]http://i.imgur.com/ZptosWE.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE] Not a particularly big fan of the new design. Since it needs a good drag coefficient, the proportions look totally fucked for a CUV; too tall in the front to be a sedan, to short/streamlined in the rear to be a CUV. The front is to tall for the grill, IMO. It would look great if shortened a bit and put on a second generation Roadster, but with all the empty space it looks goofy. Should have given it a larger fake grille like the Model S has, which is just a recessed body panel painted black.

Imagine taking a rock to the window and having to replace that glass oh god

I think the lack of the grille will grow on me. It makes sense from an EV standpoint. We're just used to having grilles on every car since their inception. I'm not sure how the public's reaction will be to it. It's a pretty radical departure from normal. Tesla did say they wanted to start getting more unique as time went on. I think they could've designed the non-grille better, though. To me it just feels like it's missing something. I'm not sure how the large windshield will play out, either. Probably expensive to replace, might suck in hot, sunny climates. I wonder if the auto-opening and closing front doors have the sensors too. Will they stop just short of hitting the car next to you in a tight spot? Might be nice for people that have trouble getting into cars. Falcon wings seem to be a lot more practical that I was expecting, and the public seems to be okay with them. I guess only time and sales will tell. Though if Tesla doesn't meet expected sales figures for this car, it might be disastrous for them. So being a little out-there was a huge gamble for them.
