The Model X shares 30% of its properties with the Tesla Model S, as the Model X is basically just an SUV version of it. The Model X is one of the safest SUVs in a rollover accident, or a frontal crash. Both the Model S and Model X are produced in the Tesla Factory in Fremont, California. The Model X is about 37 centimetres longer than the Model Y, a smaller version of the Model X.

According to EPA, the Model X can go 325 miles (523 kilometres) on a single charge in 2020, but in 2021, it can do 351 miles (565 kilometres).
