Although the Model X has good handling, its electric motors give it a distinct advantage regarding acceleration.

The primary user interface for the numerous features and customization options available on the Model X is the enormous touchscreen infotainment system that occupies almost the entire dashboard and is found on the Model X. The digital display screen that makes up the instrument cluster is positioned directly in front of the driver. Although there is no doubt about the cutting-edge nature of Tesla’s infotainment system, neither Apple CarPlay nor Android Auto is supported by it. Passengers in the back of the vehicle have access to seatback screens, which give them entertainment and, presumably, some control over the vehicle’s features.
