It offers two trims: the base dual-motor All-Wheel Drive and the tri-motor Plaid, both packing serious acceleration, generous EPA range, and access to Tesla's extensive Supercharger network. With 670 horsepower in the base trim and 1,020 horsepower in the Plaid, the Model X can hold its own against many rivals in both performance and everyday usability.AdvertisementAdvertisementUnique elements like the falcon-wing rear doors and a cavernous interior help define the Model X's character, and the vehicle still manages up to 329 EPA-estimated miles of range. This year's model carries forward minimal aesthetic and mechanical changes compared with previous years. It should be noted that production of the Model X is slated to wind down in 2026 as Tesla pivots its Fremont factory capacity toward humanoid robotics and autonomous taxi initiatives following the company's 2025 earnings announcement.What's New for 2025?The 2025 Model X receives no dramatic revisions over the '24 model year. Tesla continues with the same chassis and powertrain options that have defined the revised Model X since its last significant refresh. Software refinements and incremental updates to range and charging features continue to be delivered over the air, but there are no major structural or equipment changes for 2025.ExteriorVisually, the 2025 Tesla Model X midsize luxury SUV stays true to its long-standing design language: a sleek, aerodynamic front end without a traditional grille, crisp LED lighting, and the SUV's signature falcon-wing rear doors that open upward to aid entry in tighter spaces. A 20-inch wheel package is standard on both trims, with 22-inch wheels available for those who want more visual presence, albeit at the cost of a modest reduction in range.2025-2026 Tesla Model XTeslaInteriorInside, the cabin exemplifies Tesla's minimalistic ethos. A massive 17.4-inch centrally mounted touchscreen handles virtually all vehicle functions, from driving settings to navigation and climate. There's a 12.3-inch digital driver cluster and either a yoke-style or conventional steering wheel option at no additional cost. A panoramic windshield reinforces the futuristic cabin vibe and offers uncommonly open forward visibility.AdvertisementAdvertisementThe interior can be configured with five, six, or seven seats, depending on the buyer's needs. Rear entertainment and climate controls can be controlled via the 9.4-inch second-row touchscreen. Despite these creature comforts and the Model X's technological edge, some competitors in its price bracket deliver more traditionally luxurious interiors (like the Mercedes-Benz EQE SUV or the Volvo EX90) with richer materials and better fit and finish.TeslaView the 3 images of this gallery on the original articlePrice Range and Best Value TrimTrim LevelPriceBase$84,990Plaid$99,990Best value trim: All-Wheel DriveThe 2025 Tesla Model X's price range falls beyond what you'd term affordable, but of the two trims, the base model represents the best overall value. With its not-insignificant 670 horsepower, a manufacturer-claimed 0–60 mph time in 3.8 seconds, and an EPA-estimated 329 miles of range, it delivers the most efficient balance of power, range, and price. Meanwhile, the Plaid ramps up performance dramatically at a steeper base price without a proportionate increase in everyday usability for most buyers. Given that, the base trim is the best bet here.Key SpecsPowertrainTrimMotorsHorsepower0-60 mphDrivetrainBaseDual670 hp3.8 secAWDPlaidTri-motor1,020 hp2.5 secAWDBattery and RangeTrimEPA Est.

Its mix of straight-line pace, impressive driving range, and user-friendly technology continues to appeal to those who want a fast, spacious EV with unique design elements. AdvertisementAdvertisementThat said, this is likely one of the final model years before production shifts to other Tesla priorities, making it both a compelling option for those who ponder ownership now and a historical bookend to an era in Tesla's vehicle lineup. Against traditional luxury EV rivals, the Model X delivers serious performance and range but still falls short in premium interior refinement and some creature comforts.2026 Tesla Model XTeslaCompetitorsVolvo EX90BMW iXRivian R1SAudi Q8 e-tronMercedes-Benz EQE SUVThis story was originally published by Autoblog on Aug 12, 2026, where it first appeared in the Cars section.
