[ MUSIC ] Tesla was kind enough to loan me the highest performance Model X yet, the P90D. The company's first SUV has gotten a lot of attention for its forward thinking technologies, innovative features and versatility The big question is, does it live up to the hype? Let's find out. The base model X starts at 80, 000, but a la carte add- ons, like an upgrade to the duel motor system for $ 35, 000, and another $ 10, 000 for the high performance package. My model X is tested, stickered For $ 151, 000. With the Ludicrous Speed upgrade, the Model X does 0 to 60 in 3. 2 seconds. Faster than many sports cars. [ MUSIC ] Let's tell the Model X where we would like to go. Look how easy that is. This. It's just like typing on an iPad, I love that. If we would need a charge between here and the final destination, the car knows to take you to a charger when it starts running down. And will calculate which one you need to get to, in time to get the right charge. This was auto pilot system, is impressive. As long as the road you're on has painted lane lines, you can let the Model X drive you. I found it worked best on the highway when stopping go traffic allowed the system's capabilities to shine. The Tesla should work extra hard to make sure that consumers are aware of what the autopilot system can't do such as read the stop sign or traffic light. [ MUSIC ] The overall quality is still not where it needs to be whether stripping hung up the bottom of one falcon wing door And the carpeting in the rear cargo area was coming unglued and frayed. The biggest flaw, Tesla promised me that the second row seats move in such a way to allow a baby seat to be in place and yet still move enough to access the third row. All right, so we've got this here in the second row. There he is, all the seats move together so the baby doesn't get squished. Oop. No, baby's getting squished. That's not good, it's not supposed to hit the back of the driver's seat. Well Tessla, I guess the answer is you have to put all the gear you want to in the third row before you put the baby in. One of the great features that Tessla released with the model X is a feature called summons in the Tessla app. Here's my vehicle, how much charge it has currently. And if I want to park it in the garage for the night after I've gotten all my stuff out, I just hit summon. Now, using my phone I can literally drive the car remotely and look its even steering a little bit to center itself. There it goes, and you can set how close it will pull itself before stopping to the far wall. Pretty cool, wow, Okay. Forward thinking technologies? Off the charts. Innovative features many and many head turning. Versatility. The model X goes from family movers to serious sports car with one stomp of the pedal. Quality. Well, it's early days but there is plenty of room for improvement. Now if you'll excuse me, I'm gonna keep playing. [ NOISE ] [ BLANK_AUDIO ]
